Legal Question in Consumer Law in Minnesota

Question about sueing a company!

I run a golf course and was I order water from a certain company for the clubhouse and one of the containers of water contained an ink pen in it and I was just wondering if that was grounds for sueing or what would the next step be?

Did anyone die? Get injured? Get sick?

If not, call them up and ask them to replace the bottle for FREE.
