Glove from a brand new box gave me a jump scare. This was on the inside. Please tell me it’s just melted plastic/vinyl

    I can not tell you it is melted plastic or vinyl. Sorry chef.

    Walk-in is available if you need a good cry.

    It doesn’t matter what people here tell you. There’s simply no way you’re putting that glove on, is there?

    Looks like some fabric got into the mix. If you’re really feeling like a good citizen you can call the number on the box and report a defect in the batch.

    Looks like horsehair worms coming out of a dead cricket to me

    Glove sperm, that’s a pregnant glove. In 9 months you should see XXSmall sized glove boxes

    Bug with parasites got the Carbonite treatment

    It’s a bug from The Matrix. Keep it away from your bellybutton! Agent Smith is watching. 🤵🏻‍♂️

    Horsehair worms lay their eggs in water, where they get ingested by arthropods such as grasshoppers, crickets, and some spiders. The larva will then consume the host from the inside, completely filling it up. When the parasite is reaching its adult stage and ready to emerge, it can compel the host to seek out water, where the worm will burst out.

    Unfortunately, sometimes the unfortunate host doesn’t make it to a body of water, instead becoming trapped in a box of gloves.

    Save this comment to read before you go to sleep tonight. 🙂

    Burn the whole box, fuck it, go ahead and burn down the facility that shipped it out

    Looks like a horse worm. I’d be burning everything in cleansing flames if I were you

    Not a chef, just worked in kitchens when I was younger and enjoy the posts. I am a nurse, though, and have gone through thousands and thousands of pairs of gloves over the years. Even through covid when we used half dry rotted gloves from some Chinese storage warehouse because they were so cheap have I never seen melted vinyl or nitril look like this.

    Son…that’s a critter.

  24. That looks like one of the bugs they stuck in Neos belly button hole.

  25. Upstairs-War4144

    I’d contact the manufacturer or supplier of the gloves with the batch number. Keep the box away and get a new one. It’s been contaminated.

    Get your manager to do that.

  26. Rogue-FireFighter

    It reminds me of that parasite from the matrix.

  27. Quantitative_Panda

    Looks like one of those things they pulled out of Keanu’s belly button in the Matrix

    I think your glove took a ride on the Nostromo and you now have a baby alien in the glove. If you start to feel ill, go into the walk in so the chest bursting damage is minimized.

    Jesus Fucking Christ why would you do this to us?

  30. Mr-ts-icu

    Since being a child I ALWAYS throughoutly checked my gloves. My parents called me squeamish and paranoid, but this right here proves that I was RIGHT. I have no regrets. Better to be a mysophobe, than to carelessly come in contamt with such revolting filth

  31. 34 years, and I never would have predicted this is how I’d leave the industry

  32. factoid_

    That’s the bug they sucked out of Neo’s stomach 

  33. Odd_Perspective_4769

    Thank god those were clear gloves…can you imagine finding that inside of an opaque one?

  34. Da_Tater_Sammich

    That looks like it got sucked out of Neo’s bellybutton.

  35. ageiger518

    Looks like that thing from the matrix that was placed inside Neo then removed by that vacuum machine looking thing in the car.
