I eat alot of lean cuisine meals and have never had this problem.I was at the last bite of my pizza and I bit into something hard.After fishing the food out of my mouth, I discovered it was a piece of round metal, It looked like a washer off of a screw.How could they have let this happen?I could have choked on that if i didnt catch it in time!Needless to say, I switched to Smart Ones meals.
