The Most Important Snail in History
Added 2024-03-08 11:15:00 +0000 UTCIf this story interests you at all, I’d definitely recommend reading more about it. The Wikipedia article on the case is a good place to start, as it contains a blow-by-blow summary of the whole incident, including extracts from various judgements. It may seem obvious to us today that if a dead animal ends up in a drink, the manufacturer should be held liable for any damages it causes… but we only think that way because of this series of intense and complex arguments which took place almost a hundred years ago now. Fascinating stuff!

Thanks for this suggestion. I think I listened to a podcast covering it a little while back. Pretty awful all round. Will give it a look!
