Baked...Brains?

Good Morning, MMers! We had a disturbing report today from Ralph LeBlanc out in Westbrook. Ralph's wife died of brain cancer and his two kids live out west these days. Sitting down for his normal solo dinner, Ralph went into his pantry and grabbed a can of Maine's own B&M Baked Beans. You know, the big plant on the water right off of Interstate 295.



Anyways, Ralph was excited to have some beans to go along with his pork loin and mashed potatoes. But, when he opened the can, he didn't smell the normal pleasant scent of bacon and onion he was accustomed to. We reached out to Ralph to get some more information.

"When I opened the can, I just...I can't fully describe the scent. I guess it was a metallic smell mixed in with the scent of the beans. And it was mixed with...well, those those chunks certainly weren't bacon..."

Ralph, being a former member of the Westbrook Police Department, reached out to a buddy of his to check it out. Ted Blankenship, Ralph's longtime partner, came by to see it for himself. Here's what he had to say...

"Those beans? No. Those weren't normal beans. Ralph and I poked around, and I'd bet my paycheck that those were brains in there. No doubt about it. The most messed up part about the whole thing is that his wife died of brain cancer, ya know? That's messed up. "

Was this a some sort of gruesome mixup at the factory? Was this someone playing a prank on Ralph? Who's to say? All we know is that the next time you get a can of your favorite beans from Maine, make sure to check what's in that tin can. 

Stay safe out there, Maine!
