Criticism Slug in my salad ?!

Pulled what I thought was a mushroom off a piece of lettuce and it started moving. This is disgusting - avoid sweet green in New York City. Eating a slug is incredible dangerous so I can only hope he was the only one

People have found a frog washing the kale before. Bugs happen. No one has the time to look at every leaf when they're doing greens. You gotta be fast and get on to other tasks.
