CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A local man finds what looks like mouse in his hotdog bun, but the company that made the bread has another explanation.
Arnold’s Bread claims it is dough or “pan accumulation.”
But North Carolina’s Department of Agriculture has launched an investigation and asked Florida to inspect the factory where the buns were baked.
“Everyone thinks this is a mouse except you.†That’s what Bruce Van Dyne told the Arnold’s Master Baker who inspected the hotdog buns he believes have a mouse baked into the side of them.
The article goes on, but here’s an update on it:
Arnold Bakers released the following statement after a local man claims he found a mouse in his hotdog bun:
Arnold Bakers is committed to providing high quality fresh rolls to consumers. We sincerely apologize to the consumer in Charlotte, North Carolina who received rolls containing excess dough. We regret the resulting  concern stemming from this instance of pan accumulation, a deposit of hardened dough, on a hot dog roll.
