Woman Finds Cell Phone in Bag of Potato Chips
“I will never, ever eat chips out of a bag again. They will be dumped in the bowl.”
It's safe to drool. These aren't the chips in question.
Emma Schweiger of Janesville, Wisconsin, found a Nokia cell phone in a bag Clancy's Ripple Chips she bought from her local Aldi's. The phone wouldn't turn on, Schweiger told the Janesville Gazette, so we're assuming she didn't call its owner and put to rest the question that surely everyone must be asking: How did it get in there? It did have a "discolored circle" on the back "as if it was once connected to a belt clip." [via Engadget]

Creepy! Can you imagine if that was your cellphone?

Sounds like the cell phone of someone working in the factory with a belt clip. It fell off. I bet they could figure it out with that info.

I'm thinking it "won't turn on" because it needs a charge. I'd totally charge that thing and look through the address book.

What kind of dip is recommended for communication devices?

Was it a 'foldover'? Those are the best ones! Better yet the rare but
scrumptious 'double foldover' the holy grail of chipdom.

What did she expect? She bought the chips at Aldi's. That's like going to Amsterdam and being shocked to find hookers and pot.

It's a prize -- you know, like in kids' cereal and Cracker Jacks. What's the problem?
