Worst birthday ever! Family finds knife baked into Wal-Mart cake

3/6/2013

A Maine family says they're traumatized after discovering that a knife had been baked into their son's birthday cake. After cutting four slices from their 2-year-old's Elmo cake, Nathan Bibeau and his wife saw the glint of a blade of a paring knife. So did they buy it from a prison bakery? Nope, just from Wal-Mart. "This should not have happened," Wal-Mart said, pointing out the obvious. "We're thankful no one has hurt and sincerely apologize to our customers." Wal-Mart has also removed paring knives from its bakeries and offered Bibeau a refund. Bibeau says he's hired an attorney. "We're not going to get that second birthday back," he said. [Source]
