Today, I took the lid off my slow cooker to serve up a casserole that had been 12 hours in the making. A cockroach took the opportunity to dive in. My husband and I are now eating toast, while the delicious smell of casserole taunts us from the trash. FML

Hi, OP here, to answer your question, the slow cooker was sitting on the bench, underneath a shelf in our kitchen. As I took the lid off, the roach came from above, literally jumping into the pot! So I definitely did not see it before I took the lid off!

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.

Here's a cockroach trivia for you, OP. When you see a cockroach, it is most certainly not alone. Who you gonna call?! The exterminators. You should call the exterminators.

1. You need to do something about that cockroach infestation you've got. 2. Soo...the whole casserole was ruined? You couldn't salvage any?

Cockroaches may make your skin crawl, but you can easily scoop out the area that it came in contact with if you're that paranoid about what it could be carrying. To be honest food safety is pretty lenient with bugs, just leave it bubble away for a few minutes after you've removed the roach and it kills anything that'll cause you problems - that's why we cook food in the first place

my one and only question why did it take 12 hours?

You know roaches are cleaner than people, right?

That's what you get for cooking a casserole in a ******* crock pot.
