raise hell, throw the plate at him.

It depends on who else is there as to whether we could have a joke about it straight away or later... If i found HALF a dead cockroach in my salad tho i would spit no matter who was there... for some reason i am revolted by cockroaches over all other forms of insects etc
-
I would have a sudden onset of some crazy sickness and leave. I would also never accept another dinner invitation to that friends house.
-
scream than lose my appitite, and if I got angry anough I might just throw the salad on the host!

After I puked, and gagged at the table, I would have to tell the person to call an exterminator. ICK just the thought of it makes me sick. BUT one time I bought potato chips, just needed the salt. So emptied the small bag in a plate. I saw a black one, but thought it was a burnt chip. When I went to eat it anyway, I looked at it, and it had LEGS EWWWWWWWWWWW..Granted it was dead but eww. I called the company and of course they apologized and offered me a full year of free chips but I passed..ICK

I would get up, trying to draw little attention to myself, and take the salad into the kitchen and throw it away, wait for the hostess to come see what is wrong and tell her what happened. But I certainly would not embarrass her in front of the other guests.

I'd cover the roach with a piece of lettuce, take a drink of wine, etc. and wait for the next course. And of course, carefully watch each bite thereafter.

I'm sorry, but cockroaches are absolutely repulsive and if I found a dead cockroach ANYWHERE, *someone* is gonna know about it. So if was in my food, you can bet that I would try to bring it to attention politely as possible and if they were a good friend they would understand. I wouldn't be mad at them or anything, but it's best that they know, y'know? Umm... "Stuff" happens and I am not holding it against no one... but at the same time, I'm just not going to let a dead roach take residence in my salad bowl without someone else's knowing about it.
-
I would pick it up and start waving it around by one of it's legs and say "I love the funny croutons!" Then I would find a new meaning for "tossed salad".
-
start swearing
-
I'd probably slide it under some salad...and say nothing. It would be terribly humiliating to my friend...how much of the rest of the meal I could eat, though, is unknown to me at this moment.

Mention it quietly to my friend, not eat anything else and go home.
-
Wonder if it was an intended ingredient.
-
I doubt if I would be able to eat anything else, but I wouldn't say anything in front of anyone. It would probably be terribly embarrassing for him/her.
-
Think it was a joke. If I already ate some of the salad, I would most likely throw up and aim it at my host. I would never eat at their home again.
-
Cover it up and leave the salad alone. I would then be extra vigilant about the other food and keeping an eye out for any other contaminants. I probably would not eat much more after that! I wouldn't make a scene or even mention it to them. They would be extremely embarrassed if they knew.

Puke

Homicide.
-
tell my friend we wouldnt be friends if i couldnt be brutally honest with him/her
-
Check to see how much it had eaten.
-
i will throw the salad out of the window.
