To those who think this is what one can find only abroad, remember the
Unilever company is also present in Nigeria.

Mayerle and her family had already eaten the meal prepared with the paste when
she discovered the rubber condom as she poured the remainder into a storage
jar.
Mrs Mayerle, from Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil, took the tin of Knorr tomato paste and its contents to the local university for analysis. But she claims Unilever refused to believe that the condom had been found inside their product.
The company told Brazil's Supreme Court that the offending article could not have been inserted into the tin at the factory because the process is fully mechanised. But the court ruled in Mrs Mayerle's favour and today also awarded her £1,110 for moral damages she claimed to have suffered.
She told Brazil's Globo newspaper: 'It was the most horrible thing that's ever happened to me.
Unilever was founded in England in the 1890s and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of consumer goods, with brands including Knorr, Bertolli, Wall's and Flora.

You see how ds people dont joke with their citizens, let ds happen in Najia, she wont even been listened to,talkless of compensating her
Very true, and ds is d same unilever company in Nigeria O! ds Najia sef its possible if it does happen, nothing will be done
lol! did d two employees just had sex and mistakenly threw it in d can...how on earth did that happen
How careless can they be to have allowed ds to happen
Very disgusting,what u find in d toilet u find in d kitchen, there is no correlation
Claping...claping....i applaud ds judges and lawyers abroad,despite d fact that company said no way ds would have gotten into d tin,she still won d case&was compensated...so every company sits up
I hope ds woman did not put d condom herself just2 get some money off ds coy which she has succeeded
Condom in a well sealed can?its hard to believe
The housewife made it up joor, things are hard&its easy4her to claim ds and win, she knew what was ahead of her
In that case she wont enjoy d money, easy come, easy go
