New "Hairy Lobster" Crustacean Discovered and Classified 261
AviLazar writes "American-led divers discovered a new type of Crustacean, that resembles a lobster but has it's claws covered in 'sinuous, hair-like strands'. This species is so different, from other Crustacean's that it was classified with a new Family name: Kiwaida. Unfortunately for the Kiwaida, the AP is already using this blind creature and a salad plate in the same sentence."

Well, mangos, you pervert!
Seriously, some varieties of mango have in their flesh lots of annoying fibrous hairs connected to the seed. If you try to eat the fruit directly, those hairs get stuck in your teeth. Did I mention those mango varieties are absurdly cheap?
In some tropical countries there's a sex position called "the mango": just like the 69, but with hairs between the teeth. Really!

Anything prepared on a street stall in Mexico. I reckon they put the hair in it to show that its freshly prepared.
Having said that, I found a hair in a packet of ready-to-eat curry the other day.
