Woman Gets 'Surprise' in Bowl of Chili at Wendy's
Woman bites into finger while eating chili at Wendy's restaurant in California SAN JOSE A woman bit into a portion of a human finger while eating a bowl of chili at a Wendy's restaurant, health officials said. Officials said the fingertip was about 1œ inches long and contained part of a manicured nail. The woman, who asked officials not to identify her, immediately spit it out, Santa Clara County Health Officer Martin Fenstersheib said. "She was a bit grossed out it was described to me, and vomited a number of times," he said. Health investigators seized all the ingredients at the restaurant and are tracing them back to their manufacturer. They believe the finger got into the chili at an earlier stage and was cooked at a high enough temperature to kill any viruses. Wendy's spokesman Joe Desmond said the company was cooperating with the investigation. "It's important not to jump to conclusions," he said. "Here at Wendy's we plan to do right by our customers." At Pasta Bravo, you can order meatballs, sausage, or shrimp as an add-on with your pasta and sauce, but I've never seen this on a menu. Posted by: BigEd 2005-03-24 |
