Mouse Found Dead Inside Bag of Barbecue Potato Chips

The identity of the mouse is unknown.  It could have been a lab mouse or a school mouse, but the fact is, the mouse was allegedly found by a student at the bottom of a bag of Frito-Lay barbecue potato chips at Lewis-Palmer School District in Colorado.

Investigators cannot blame the 3-day-old corpse on the school or Frito-Lay, at this time, as both deny any wrong doing.

Autopsy results are pending, and no information about the mouse’s interment was provided by local authorities. The identity of the mouse is being withheld pending whereabouts of any next of kin.

No one stepped forward to offer any evidence, such as extremely loud plastic bag stomping with loud cries of “fuego!” in the middle of the night; so it is unclear whether there was too much buffalo in the chips and no water, the alleged “chew hole” was not visible, the kid lied, or the rodent was just on a suicide mission. No note was found.
