It ain't no big deal..but it might be some experience though. Last Friday we purchased a packet of तील from an Indian Grocery store, to make pickle for momo. When we brought it home, we realized that there was a whole bunch of पुत्ला inside the sealed packet. It could have like 10 or more of them flying inside the packet and they are getting bigger by the day. What do you guys think about suing the grocery store or asking for some compansation?? What we are planning as of now is talking to the manager and asking for some compansation (a minimum of 50 dollars) this Saturday. We r gonna let you know about the follow up this weekend. Would that sound appropriate??
If you guys had similar experiences what would you do?? Or, what would you guys suggest for us??

PK--- I am not doing devil's advocate here but I think you should check the expiration date before you buy it. Most of these bugs are created because of the heat and warm weather. If I were you, I'd go to the store and talk with owner/manager, unless for $50, you're willing to forget everything and start over. Keep in mind that there are only few Indian stores in most cities. If they get fined, they are not gonna close down, they will increase the price of items and you end up paying for it in a log run(may a lot more than $50, if you're lucky to pull his tooth to get this). Soon, The indian grocery will be like a health plan...no one an afford it. It's a long haul to get products from India to you kitchen and it takes quite some time.I'd suggest to go to the store which has more turnover so that you have better chances to get fresher products. My 2 cents.....

Thats fine Furke!
Anyways, Coming to the topic.If you really want to sue them, go do it! But, consider;
-Lawyer's Fees
-Summon/ Time off from work and Studies.
-Stress/ Homework/ Putting up information together, at least for the lawyer.
-Not being able to go to that store ever after ( if you consider ethics).
-Lastly, the the biggest thing would be, you have not consumed it yet. The case can only be stronger if you had consumed the product and was in the verge of dying.
For Business owner;
- At the max $1000 for the compensation; which of course would ultimately be consumer's lawyer's fees.
-Maybe a citation worth a few hundreds, which goes to the government.
So, what's you gonna earn or learn unless you are a Law student?
Not all cases would result in lump sum of money as your thinking right now. Getting a burn from a hot cup of coffee because the cup did not mention "content is hot" sign is a very old story.

sojhosajho: It ain't no India Imports.
dimag kharab: That's funny. I didn't realize that the word has this meaning too. I do think the legal hassles ain't worth taking because I would end up losing my time and effort and maybe some money too.
furke: Wow, that's some word engineering..u deserve some points :)
stiffer: Cautionary warning is what I plan to do but don't wanna give up 50 bucks..I think I deserve it :)
YoTaBhayanaNiSom: Well, this could definitely be a start
coola: Well, we do have enough Indian stores around so it wouldn't really matter too much. But I don't expect a repurcussion to that level.
Bhojpure: You rite buddy..what if I make lotsa money if I win the case :)

Dude just look at this picture. The stuffs u see flying above the sesame inside the packet are the flies I am talking about. This pic is taken with the webcam and might not appear too clear. I can upload better resolution pictures if u require one. Lemme know if you would like to use the same to prepare pickle for momo.
