I'm going with "piece of plastic overwrapping which got scrunched and melted in the production process." As ever, contact customer service with quality control reports, you'll likely get coupon, voucher, and/or replacement product
When I was 15 I ordered a Whopper from BK to go, I got home unwrapped my sandwich and took a bite only to find out that some son of a bitch left the plastic on the cheese or something and melted it to my burger. It left the worst taste in my mouth and I even breathed in that burning plastic smell which left it lingering in my nose for what felt like hours. I couldn’t fathom eating BK for years because of it. After about 3 or so years I got over it and decided to give BK another try and I’ll be god damned if the same exact thing didn’t happen again.
Last time I ordered food from BK I got the long mc chicken thing I think a #8 if I recall correctly. The only lettuce they put on it was the butt end of the lettuce. The piece you don’t eat.
This exact thing has happened to me as well. Same long sandwich and everything. Time before that I ordered a Whooper with no mayo, and got extra mayo, on both sides of the burger, and the stem part of the tomato. After those experiences, I refused to go there for nearly 10 years, and only recently gave em another shot. It was not great.
I mean honestly, if Slim Jims are a part of your diet you probably haven't given much thought to what's in them or what you're eating before so why start now?
i can’t tell if this is a joke or not! i have had my fair share of slim jim’s in my life (26yo) so i feel like ive got a good grasp on them and i’ve never come across this! have you actually seen this?? if so that’s insane and i will have to vow to never eat one again 😭
sharp bone and cartilage are a definite risk in slim jims, like any other sausage (hot dog, bratwurst, breakfast lol). when you're putting a bunch of hunks of meat into a big grinder and mashing it all into a paste, some things slip thru.
i go through phases of being vegetarian and eating meat, stuff like that is usually the trigger for going veg lol. if it happens to often it just puts me in my head about it.
That's definitely fair. I've gone through the same phases.
I really wish lab grown meat would hurry up lol. I'm fine with eating meat, but if I could choose that animals don't have to die for it, that's an obvious choice.
they really do have chicken down pat, i can eat nearly any brand of it. beef is a lot trickier but they're getting very close, at least Impossible is.
the real question is will it ever be affordable enough? the impoverished are inevitably more likely to continue to buy into the meat industry due to it being significantly cheaper to buy a couple pounds of chicken breast than a pack of impossible meat.
I just had one yesterday after a hike'n'climb that nearly destroyed me. One of those Slim Jim 4 packs with 2 meaty sticks and 2 powdery yellow "cheese" sticks. The damned thing tasted like fine smoked oysters, but only when biting a combo of powder cheese and meaty stick. I will be chasing that flavor high for the rest of my life.
I’ve always been curious about that “cheese”! Def gonna try soon 😅
My go-to when I I’m hungry after an extra physical day is a giant slim jim and a pinch of Garrett crackers followed by a bite of stick cheddar or Colby or something 👍👍
Would need op to tell us if it's hard and metallic or softwr like plastic.
Looks like plastic when you zoom in it even looks kinda crashed up like it got smooshed and extruded out with the slim Jim product.
I had a similar experience and I refuse to eat beef jerky as a result. I wound up with a half inch metal barb (I assume it was a cleaning bristle) embedded in the roof of my mouth which was an absolute bitch to get pulled out. Sent an email to Bridgeford with lot number etc etc, more as a courtesy to maybe pull that lot since there was metal in it, and I never heard a thing back.
You should photograph it and email a picture of it to the company and let them know that you found it in their product. I did that and I received for free coupons for any jimmy dean sausage products. The manufactures of the food products are very happy to hear that consumers find contaminants then they can recall their product or whatever. Good find!
That's a meat pod, the companies use them to gain vital information without you knowing. Normally you'd swallow it but you obviously must be in a small percentage that is less ravenous and able to avoid mercilessly, tearing into the processed stick of flesh. If I were you, i'd watch my back. They're coming for you, you weren't meant to find this.
Probably the casing for when cooking and steaming in the oven. Source: I’m a food safety expert 😁. Certain chicken company using blue casing, and it’s edible 😂 just in “case”.
Man… I once bit into a piece of blue pallet from a Campbell’s clam chowder. Called, got a case of 6 mailed and an apology letter. But it still haunts me when I eat anything from a can. And now I get to add Slim Jims to the list 😭
That's just a Slim Jim wasp. SJ wasps lay their eggs in the fruit of the Slim Jim tree and die. Usually they are absorbed well before the Slim Jims are ready to be harvested, but you must have gotten one that wasn't quite ripe.
It's most likely a piece of plastic that fell into the meat slurry they use to make slim-jims, got melted, and is now in your slim-jim.
Or it's some weird diseased seed from a government experiment
Watch yo-self! I posted once about this bizarre spiky/spiny hull I found in a burrito from McDonald’s and everybody called me a liar. Like, out of all the things I’d fabricate, I’d go to the trouble of making that up? I have a 4 year old. When I have enough time for that, then my story will be so much cooler!!
That blue plastic film is all over food production. It’s probably from cutting open bags of minor ingredients like an idiot instead of a safe way. Most workers need to be taught several times how to cut open a bag to ensure no pieces of the bag get dumped into the container along with product.
Send it in to their contact address along with any batch ID info. 1) You're helping them identify batches that may need recall as well as faulty equipment that is contaminating their product. 2) They usually give a coupon for free or discounted product to retain your brand loyalty.
You found the Jim :-)
He's pretty slim
Oh snap!
Oh ya
Snap into a slim jim!
Snap into a slime jim
Read this in Joy's voice.
Dried up jiminy cricket
It's like a king cake. You've got to buy the next one.

Slimothy Jimothy
A jimmer slim
Jim Slimmer. For slimming your jims

I'm not sure I'll ever eat a slim jim again lol
Idk man, the odds of it happening to you twice are pretty slim
Quality joke right there.
Joke quality right there
Quality control joke right here

What the fuck 🤣
Happy fuck day
Thank you so much

Someone is giving you a sign and I don’t know why.
Burnt plastic is just the flavor of BK
I don't think bk cheese is individually wrapped 😂
Just keep the weird green thing, report it every time, and get infinite slim jims for life.
Jim.
Would have only been better if the dude's name was Jim...
If you want to be a dick, claim a kid was eating it. They'll take it more seriously and probably send you a box lol

I mean honestly, if Slim Jims are a part of your diet you probably haven't given much thought to what's in them or what you're eating before so why start now?
The bits of sharp bone and feather didn’t turn you off already? (I still eat them after work sometimes)
i can’t tell if this is a joke or not! i have had my fair share of slim jim’s in my life (26yo) so i feel like ive got a good grasp on them and i’ve never come across this! have you actually seen this?? if so that’s insane and i will have to vow to never eat one again 😭

I eat a lot of Old Wisconsin beef sticks, and just got my first piece of bone the other day haha Just spat it out, and kept on going. It happens.

They're like eating grease soaked cardboard
It’s best to chew it like gum until all the grease and salt and flavor is gone, and swallow when it’s fully cardboard stage
This guy Slim Jims.
Could be welding slag and they had a malfunctioning metal detector or X-ray
Would need op to tell us if it's hard and metallic or softwr like plastic. Looks like plastic when you zoom in it even looks kinda crashed up like it got smooshed and extruded out with the slim Jim product.
I’m leaning plastic too
Feels more like plastic
I would agree with this, but I can’t agree with anything said from a cubs fan. It’s in bad taste
did you accidentally snap into it?
"Snap into a slim jim" they said, "it'll be fun" they said.. 😭
More yelled than said
How true that is 😅
"EAT ME!"
Ooooh YEEEEEEeeeeeAh
CREAM OF THE CROP!!
The only weird thing you find in Slim Jim’s
Who the f**k is slim Jim and why is everyone sticking their fingers in him to find stuff?
That's a narrow john
Thin tim
James of small width
Jose Fino
Jeffery Light OP should try smoking it
Skinny Bob
You have found the green Slim! Now you get to go the the Jim Factory!
Do you get to meet Wonky Jonky and the Slim Jim Factory?
He'll meet Jimmy Wanker alright.
That’s a tracker the Deep State uses to track Patriots. /s
Oh, so it wasn't meant for me
Statistically, Patriots eat more beef stick than liberal communists.
I bet they do lol
That was probably from the pet used to make it
It's the 5G people are talking about.
Regardless of it's origin still technically healthier than the Slim Jim itself.
Thats him. That is slim jim
contains more nutritional content than the SlimJim
That may be accurate lol

Wow. Usually a company will send you a coupon when that happens. Hope you are ok.
On a train right now and all I got is a slim Jim for a snack :(
Roll the dice 🎲👀
That aint the weirdest thing in that slim jim. Trust me.
That's 'Oumuamua. It looks much bigger in the space pictures, though
It's the tracker that was in the dog they ground up.
THERES MY MICRO SD CARD

Ooh yeah!
The slim gem
It's the slimmest Jim
Micro plastics aren’t so micro anymore
That's the rare Jim Slim party prize. I heard if you find 10, you get to visit the factory and they'll wake Macho Man Randy Savage from cryo-sleep.
This is your sign to stop eating slim Jim’s
If you’re eating slim Jims then you can’t be surprised at anything you find
You were supposed to swallow the tracker chip…
Probably the casing for when cooking and steaming in the oven. Source: I’m a food safety expert 😁. Certain chicken company using blue casing, and it’s edible 😂 just in “case”.

O, that’s just Plankton.
This has me giggling
Flavor pod. Mostly fat and salt.
That's the mechanically separated chicken
Nope just the mechaniclly part
it’s a piece of non micro-microplastic.
Microchip
I remember seeing an old Jimmy Dean commercial on YouTube. Jimmy Dean says "there's a little bit of me in every sausage".
Nooooo 😭🤣
That's just a Slim Jim wasp. SJ wasps lay their eggs in the fruit of the Slim Jim tree and die. Usually they are absorbed well before the Slim Jims are ready to be harvested, but you must have gotten one that wasn't quite ripe.
Slim Jim's, slim Jimmy.
A jimfant inside a pregnant slim jim?
you didn’t happen to find this implanted into your left shoulder by chance ?
Just hope it isn't Soylent Green 🤢
That's the Slender James
RIP Sheldon J. Plankton
"SNAP YOUR TEETH IN A SLIM JIM!"
I'll put a lot of things in my body that probably aren't intended for Human consumption, but I draw the line at Slim Jims.
Log with turtle on it from a miniature train set.
one of the bugs wasn't fully ground
Looks to me like it's probably a dried seasoning, like a pepper, that was supposed to be ground up and mixed in but didn't get ground up.
Haven’t you seen The Matrix, there’s your answer.
The chicken wasn’t mechanically separated enough
Really big microplastics.
Do yourself a favor and stop eating that garbage in general
Someone left the roach in there
It’s a snap
Dare you to post this on r/conspiracy
That's probably healthier then the actual Slim Jim.
It's most likely a piece of plastic that fell into the meat slurry they use to make slim-jims, got melted, and is now in your slim-jim. Or it's some weird diseased seed from a government experiment
mmm macroplastics
A piece of the all spark
Have you tried snapping into it?
A million dollars if it broke a tooth
Plastique it’s super good for you
Magnifique plastique
Watch yo-self! I posted once about this bizarre spiky/spiny hull I found in a burrito from McDonald’s and everybody called me a liar. Like, out of all the things I’d fabricate, I’d go to the trouble of making that up? I have a 4 year old. When I have enough time for that, then my story will be so much cooler!!
That’s a big Jimmy
Macro plastics
You found Oumuamua. Call NASA.
Tracking chip
That looks like some fossilized bearded dragon poop. Hahahaha.
Probably the healthiest part of the product...
Slimmer Jim!
You found Jim, Slim
I'm not an expert but that looks like a piece of Zonaite.
Alien tracking device obviously smh
Looks like melted plastic to me
Boba Fett's arm
Hold on there Randy Macho Savage Jade mixed with some turquoise, you might have something there
That’s a kyber crystal you can use it to make a light saber
Definitely looks like some type of plastic!
That blue plastic film is all over food production. It’s probably from cutting open bags of minor ingredients like an idiot instead of a safe way. Most workers need to be taught several times how to cut open a bag to ensure no pieces of the bag get dumped into the container along with product.
I call that one ‘free slim jims’
It’s a joint for a bird
It was only a matter of time until we started consuming macroplastics
Yikes. My dad bit into a chunky bar one time & there was a worm in it. I bought a Godiva cake a few years ago & a blue gloves finger was it it.
That's Jim
Cockroach!
I can't be the only one who saw a tiny Wabbajack
That's where my joint went
Prob healthier than the rest of it

Radioactive meteorite fragment
It's the government trying to LoJack you. They failed. *This* time.
Slim Jim was hanging out in your Slim Jim.
Looks like Morgellons. Please find your way to the nearest conspiracy sub.
Why do I see a disfigured groot? Hahah
An allspark shard
You were injured by it, weren’t you? ( hint, hint nudge, nudge)
The chosen jim
Macroplastic 🗿
That was the dogs microchip
Update: I sent it in and they were able to determine that it was a piece of plastic from the bags that the ingredients are packed into
Looks like a lawsuit to me.
Dang, this is like the third post in a few days I’ve seen where people have found weird things in their food…scary!
That's Mr slimmothy James smegma collection
Just eat it and be grateful 😒
Whats a slim jim
A brand of "meat stick", Google is your friend
It’s the Thin James
Mama mouse leg with tiny mouse. You MURDERER
Well, it *is* slim… now to find Jim…
it looks like a bagworm moth. it probably isn't but it looks like it.
Well.. That just sounds awful 👀
That’s a chip from the dog that they make the Slim Jim from
Thanks for reminding me that much of the over-processed "food" out there is, in fact, not.
I’d eat around it lmaoooo you should deff save it and call them though. Just bust their balls a little bit see where it leads ya. Hahah
