A Romanian man was shocked to find a dead mouse inside a salami sausage he was eating.
Nelu Luca, from Iasi, had eaten almost half of the vacuum-packed salami before he spotted the mouse.
He said: "I couldn't believe it. I'm always careful with what I buy but the salami looked perfectly fine from the outside. But in the middle there was a dead mouse."
Manufacturers Tabco Campofrio Romania, based in Tulcea, now face a fine of up to £1,000.
Valerian Salvastru, head of consumer protection in Iasi, said: "We took samples from the salami and sent them to the lab to see if there was a health risk. We are continuing our investigations."
Ovidiu Wencz, manager of the company which produced the salami, blamed saboteurs and believes somebody must have deliberately put the mouse in the salami mixture.
He said in the past they had found screws and nuts in their salami but solved that problem by installing magnets.
