That chinese strawberries have needles in them so children would eat them and they will puncture their stomachs, because reasons, even though they were turkish strawberries. Also heard similar one but with razors and different food.

This actually happened in Australia a few years ago. Like 2022 I think. Some strawberries had razors in them. I don't think anyone got hurt, but it did cause a pretty big scare for a few weeks.

First time I've heard this story was close to twenty years ago. 😺
