Knife In Walmart Cake: Cayden Bibeau, 2, Finds Weapon In His Elmo-Themed Birthday Cake

His second birthday was almost his last.

Cayden Bibeau, 2, was either shocked or psyched when he found a paring knife embedded in his Elmo-themed birthday cake over the weekend, but his father was not pleased. Nathan Bibeau told WGME that his son's birthday party was cancelled after the family found the knife, left in the cake by an employee at Walmart where he bought it.

The Lewiston, Maine family found the knife as they Bibeau said he was "disappointed and upset" at Walmart, according to the New York Daily News, and that his entire family left his son's party early because of the find. Yahoo! News points out, the ol' knife-in-a-cake is a classic excuse to leave a child's birthday party early).

Bibeau made waves when he publicized the cake flop, as Walmart swiftly issued an apology and considered pulling the knives from its bakeries across the country.

Bibeau says he still plans to shop at Walmart and "won't hold a grudge."

yikes,
well the way this country goes on, I'm surprised they didnt start a mass hysteria
about kitchen knives...seeking legislation to monitor, regulate or ban their use and such.

"Walmart swiftly issued an apology and considered pulling the knives from its bakeries across the country."

yea i guess the employees will be taught to slice bread by karate chopping!



I mean it's terrible, sure, but statistically it's bound to happen on occasion, no matter what the company does. People drop things in food from time to time, they make mistakes.

Obviously we all ought to show common sense and be careful but we seem to have got into a sort of society where no one takes any responsibility for their actions and everyone wants to blame everyone else and preferably find an excuse to sue them¬!
