A woman claims to have been "attacked" by her salad dressing.

Divel McLean was hoping to rustle up some dinner when the bottle, which she says was "possessed", exploded.

“I heard pop, pop, pop. I looked up, it was possessed. It was going crazy. It was shooting up in the air, to the side," McLean told Fox19.

“It sounded like a firecracker going off in the house. Real loud."

McLean, from Wyoming in the US, said that the Dorothy Lynch-brand salad dressing attacked her when she opened the fridge.

"Well it's hard to explain, I was attacked by a bottle of salad dressing," McLean told the local TV station.

"Probably thought I was on the whiskey or something."

McLean added that she snapped photographs of the scene of devastation afterwards. Reports suggest that the property's carpet, computer, walls, and dress were damaged in the incident.

The American estimates that approximately £2,000, or $2,500 of damage was caused to the home.

She later found out that the salad dressing had been recalled by the manufacturer. Apparently bacteria in the product causes the liquid to bubble and spew out uncontrollably.

“From just a $3 bottle of dressing. From the depths of my toes, to the top of my head. I will never eat Dorothy Lynch again. That stuff is crazy," McLean concluded.
