What can go wrong if you want to indulge in a pleasant bar of chocolate? A retired school principal in Madhya Pradesh's Khargone would be able to tell you exactly what can.

Mayadevi Gupta had a rather unpleasant experience when she consumed a chocolate, which she received on a child's birthday at a non-governmental organisation. To her shock, she found a set of teeth in the chocolate.

Gupta also teaches at the NGO.

Recollecting the horror, Gupta said that she felt "something like a crunchy piece of chocolate" after eating it. "When I took it out, I was shocked to see it was a set of four false teeth," she said, according to a report by India Today.

She later filed a complaint to the district food and drug department in Khargone. The report said that a team has been sent to investigate the matter. The team has also taken samples from a shop where the chocolates were bought.
