Hello. I was eating a perogie and found this inside. I sent it in for testing and they are saying it is a potato. If it were a potato then it would not be hard and brown. However, they are claiming it is just a potato. It seems hard like a stone or a burnt piece of bacon which is not supposed to be in the product. I am very upset! I feel like they were dishonest with me. they did not even offer to replace the product for me. I can not believe how they lied to me. It seems that companies these days are just liars. There was not even an imprinted sale by date or stamp on this package.
