Recently we bought LION dates half Kg packet (500g+100g free=600g, Rs. 62/-, batch no. Aug 2011 / D606) from MORE super market near Uppal, Hyderabad.
The day after I opened the package to see deseeded dates with wonderful taste but eventually saw some plastic wires entangled among them...i had to struggle a lot to remove them and this time I preserved one plastic fiber / thread to show up! I photographed the entire product as well for my record! :-)
