Woman declines $100 offer over can of beans containing rat head


An Arkansas company is offering $100 to a Utah woman who found a severed rodent head in a can of green beans. But for Marianne Watson says she won't go along with the deal, which required a pledge not to sue over the unsavory incident. The letter from Allens Inc. of Siloam Springs, Ark., describes the $100 offer as a "gesture of goodwill." Marianne Watson isn't interested. "I won't sign it under any circumstances," she said. Still, Watson, 49, said she never wanted to take legal action. Instead, she wants to "put enough media attention on them that they either withdraw those cans or do something other than what they're trying to do, which is shut me up."
