If you're totally freaked out about wheat products on a second hand product (Yes, it was bought as new and looks gross) your great grand parents would be ashamed of you, that's privilege.
Just return it if you must. This one story is not worth the millions of views it's getting.
A working product should be destroyed because it had old food on it? That's fine, but don't pretend next week you are an amazing human who recycles.
Humans still work at Amazon and they make mistakes do we really need blood on this?
