Diner finds finget in chili Suffering from ads?

quote:
SAN FRANCISCO, California (Reuters) -- A diner at a SAN FRANCISCO, California (Reuters) -- A diner at a Wendy's fast food restaurant in San Jose, California, found a human finger in a bowl of chili prepared by the chain, local officials said Wednesday.

"This individual apparently did take a spoonful, did have a finger in their mouth and then, you know, spit it out and recognized it," said Ben Gale, director of the department of environmental health for Santa Clara County. "Then they had some kind of emotional reaction and vomited."

Local officials launched an investigation after the incident Tuesday night and the medical examiner determined Wednesday that the object was a human finger.

Officials are trying to determine whether the finger came in the raw materials Wendy's used to prepare the chili, Gale said.

Wendy's International Inc. corporate office did not immediately return a call for comment. Wendy's is the third-largest hamburger chain.



I think raw material suppliers to fast food chains should be required by law to report all employee missing appendages to their customers.



I would hope that Wendys did not get such a report and ignore it.
I never eat there , so I'm not worried..

When most of their employess are illegal immigrants, do you think this would have any effect? I expect such a law already exists, anyways...

Since when is Wendy's a "diner"? The word "diner" has too much class to be wasted on a dive such as Wendy's.

Gives "finger food" a whole new meaning, though, don't it?

Wendy's is the best fast food out there. It provides finger-lickin' good food; what do you provide? NOTHING.

You should consider ending your life, Imran, if you do consider the Spicy Chicken Sandwich to suck.

It does suck. The old sandwich had more meat. Now they'd bastardized it to make it more 'crunchy' (ie, more breadcrumbs, less meat). If eating better chicken is ending your life, then we should all sign up .

Wendy's is my favorite fast food restaurant. I almost always get the classic double combo w/ bacon.

My fiance loves the chili... I won't be telling her about this little incident.

Was the finger raw or cooked?

Wait just a cotton-pickin' minute!! How the hell do you eat a finger without noticing it on your spoon? Fingers aren't exactly spoon-sized. Nor do they fit easily in the mouth except for one direction.

Oh, that's good to know. I was wondering whether the person had an emotional reaction, or if he just calmly set the finger aside and continued on with his meal.

And I'll also add:

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It probably wasn't a whole finger.


Maybe just a knuckle.
