Insect complain
ByA man opened his cornflakes and found an insect. He wrote to the manufacturer who replied that his letter had caused a great deal of concern at head office. To find an insect in their product was, they thought, impossible: they would close the factory and fumigate it. They expressed their gratitude to the man for bringing such a serious matter to their attention.

The man was delighted especially as the manufacturer had sent him vouchers so he could get replacement packs. However, his delight was cut short when he read the Post-It note attached to the letter. It was from the Vice President of Consumer Affairs and read: “Send this creep the usual insect letter”.
