I wonder if Mars will ask Terence for copies of his dental records.
Man chokes on gold tooth hidden in Mars bar.
SICKENED Terence Fitzgerald munched on a Mars to satisfy his sweet tooth — and choked on a GOLD one hidden inside.
Grandad Terence, 62, gagged when another person’s gnasher lodged in his throat as he gobbled down a mouthful.
He complained to the firm’s bosses who, before launching an investigation, want to see Terence’s DENTAL RECORDS to be sure the metal tooth was not his.
Electrician Terence, from Hastings, East Sussex, was halfway through the chocolate bar when he got his unpleasant surprise.
He said: “All of a sudden I felt something stick in my throat.
“I managed to cough it up and at first thought it was a bit of metal or something.
“With closer inspection I realised it was a gold tooth — with a bit of the tooth still attached.
“It was horrible and I felt sick. I won’t be eating a Mars again, that’s for sure.”
He added: “I have seven grandchildren so I’m just thankful it wasn’t one of them that ate it. They could have choked.
“I complained to Mars and I’ve got to send the tooth off with my dental records so they know it’s not mine.
“It’s a joke. As far as I know I’ve still got all my teeth.”
The dad-of-two went on: “I’ve not had any compensation or even an apology.”
A spokesman for Mars said last night: “We want our products to reach our customers in pristine condition.
“We urge the customer to send the product, and the item he says he found in it, back to us as soon as possible as we need to investigate this matter immediately.”
