    This morning I discovered what appears to be rodent bone and hair in a jar of peanut butter; halfway down..

    I've emailed the manufacturer and ( bought in N.Ireland) Belfast City Council environmental health dept.

    Obviously this isn't acceptable but my main concern is having consumed contaminated food. The supposed sole ingredient is peanuts - organic and roasted.

    Could anyone offer any advice?

    I am not really sure what advice you are looking for?

    if the UK have something similar to the Food Safety Authority it might be worth contacting them and report incident. They made do a recall

    If you are concerned that you ate food in contact with rodent bones you could contact your doctor. We cannot give medical advice on boards.

    That would be medical advice, which we cannot offer here on Boards. You should contact your GP

    Look after your health first, then speak to the food authority. If they are anything like the one in the south your case will be dealt with promptly.

    Good luck & good health!
