DALLAS -- A jury took about 45 minutes Wednesday to convict a Dallas man of sprinkling his own dried feces on grocery store baked goods. Thursday, Behrouz Nahidmobarekeh was sentenced to five years in state prison.

Prosecutors had store surveillance videotapes from a Fiesta grocery store of two incidents in July.

"He takes his own fecal matter and spread it to the wind over the food going to the public," prosecutor Will Ramsey said in court. "It's just so disgusting and, you know what, people get hurt."

The 49-year-old taxi driver was charged with two felony counts of tampering with consumer products.

However, defense attorney Clark Birdsall told jurors that there was no way to prove that Nahidmobarekeh's actions would have harmed anyone.

"It's OK to be angry at the defendant. I am. But you've got to follow the law," Birdsall said.

Customers had complained that the fresh-baked items smelled and tasted like manure.

Nahidmobarekeh said in a statement that he sprinkled the material on the baked goods because store personnel mistreated him.

The video showed Nahidmobarekeh take a bag from his pocket and toss what he said was feces on baked items. The video showed him repeat the action several times.

In the statement, Nahidmobarekeh said he took his own feces and dried it in the sun. He then used a cheese grater to grind the material into smaller portions. The statement identified the Fiesta store as the location on Ross Avenue, east of downtown Dallas.

"Customers had complained that the fresh-baked items smelled and tasted like manure."

Ok - fess up you Dallas GChatters - who bought donuts from there? :p :p :p

Certainly NOT me! I don't care for dried up drizzly shits garnishing my donuts! :D

Gives new meaning to stuff 'tasting like shit.' (Which is what the customers probably said, but decorum prevents the Dallas Morning Snooze (or any other newspaper) from dropping the 'S-word'.)

If something SMELLED like manure, then why the hell did they TASTE it? Ewwwww!

sometimes the smell can be deceiving. take for instance the durien fruit. it smells like shitz but the taste is not bad at all.

however, with the case above. baked goods are not suppose to smell like that, lol. i think the most funny part is how the guy actually took the time to do this.

Yep. If it walks like a duck & talks like a duck, ....

Wow... people actually ATE it? That's not right!

How did they know what manure tastes like?

Revolting!

I'd imagine it's like biblical mana - it magically tastes like any food you want it to - since it's composed of so many different foods.
