Perth family's terrifying discovery in grapes six-year-old was eating
A Perth family has found a black spider in a bunch of grapes from IGA, just minutes after their six-year-old was eating them.
Anna-Lisa Elliott purchased the grapes at an IGA supermarket last week and gave them to her daughter to eat.
Her husband, Matt Honnor, started pulling the bunch apart to put in school lunchboxes before finding the spider nestled in the middle of the bunch.
“To think my step-daughter was eating from the same bunch just moments earlier is pretty disturbing, I just kept thinking, what if it was a redback?” he told the West Australian.
“It was horrible. What if she had swallowed it?"
The family said they believe it was a common house spider and took the grapes back to IGA the following day.
Mr Honnor posted a video of the bunch, saying: "This is a matter of public health and safety. My kids have been eating these straight out of the bag
"Your (sic) lucky none of them have been bitten.... or ate it for that matter."
