so she saw it was moldy but ate it anyway?

I wonder which esteemed plaintiffs attorney is representing Ms Brown. Lawsuits cost our country 260 billion dollars in 2010 according to Towers Watson. To put in another perspective this number represents 850 dollars we each paid that year as a "tort tax" or 1.8% of our gross domestic product. If we instituted "loser pays" system as a country then this kind of lawsuit would come to a quick end.

Careful Bob....you could get sued.

Tell the lady the recession is over, get a job.

Wonder if she has been keeping it in her purse waiting for he opportune moment to cash in on it. I know it is a stretch but it is as bizarre as her story.

REALLY!!! How hungry do you have to be to not notice? You saw,you ate, deal with it like an adult! Does the Clark bar candy money skit in Seinfeld seem to ring a bell? Who is her lawyer? The one Kramer hired to get some of the Clark Bar candy money?

Jackie Chiles

this story is outrageous, egregious, preposterous.

Any proof of when she bought it? sure it came from wally world? she say it moldy and still ate it?

questions, questions, questions,

You put the balm on? Who told you to put the balm on? I didn't tell you to put the balm on...why'd you put the balm on?

What kind of a dumbass eats a moldy candy bar!

I would contend that she didn't know it was molded until after test of her sickness showed that. Sorta like if someone eats a hamburger gets sick and then it was determind it contained E-Coli, or eating a Peanut butter sandwich and it has Salmonella these are things not known until it has been consumed.

Quoting stats about law suits in no way should be interupreted as being of a criminal nature. Persons who have suffered a loss are entitled to be made whole.

Is it possible that the candy bar had been in her possession for some time sure, However if she produces a receipt that it was purchased prior to eating then the bar code will also show the batch # on the product which would elimanate the criminal aspect.

Al.com reports that Terrica Brown is suing Walmart and the Hershey Co. Brown says she was working at the a Walmart store on South Memorial Parkway in Huntsville on Feb. 28, 2011, when she ate the candy bar while on a break from her job.

Brown says she was working at the a Walmart?

@ Casinokid, great theory.....but...just wondering, if she only checked after she got sick, was there some of the candybar left unconsumed? Very unusual.....

I assume and I use that word lightly that her stomach contents were tested, It does sound extream however if they thought they could be dealing with a mass contamination then perhaps that would be protocall. Today you have got to have some kind of substantial evidence for your claim just a mere threat to sue and shake down a company today doesn't really work.

Who know's she may only be asking for a nominal amount, We wern't informed of that.
