I think I ate a piece of metal.

I was making soup and a little hair like piece of metal fell in the soup. I ate the soup anyway but now I am worried. I feel fine. Should I be concerned?

are you sure the little piece isn’t still attached to the can or the lid?

Also the metal is steel.This would sink to the bottom.Are you sure you actually
ate it?

Well eating metal chips is definately not recommended.
But to be sure phone the “poison control center”.They
will advise you.
Its in the phone book at the front.
