Woman Sues Over Condom Found in Soup

Irvine restaurant's lawyer says it's a mystery how the rolled-up item got into the chowder.

By Jeff Gottlieb, Times Staff Writer

An Orange County woman is suing an Irvine restaurant, saying she found a condom in her clam chowder.

Laila Sultan, 48, said she was eating at McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurant on Feb. 26, 2002, when something rubbery stuck to her tooth. "We said, 'Of course. You're chewing on a clam,' " said Paula Wild, one of three friends with her — all eating clam chowder, and all of whom have joined the lawsuit.

Sultan said she ran to the bathroom and threw up for 15 minutes.

I'm hooking up the jumper cables to my head right now, in the hope of degaussing the portion of my brain where the mental image associated with your post is stored.

I guess she should start looking at what she's eating. Or try stirring it, for that matter.

I certainly hope you just forgot to put in < /sarcasm>. Surely you can't blame the woman.

"...that big tan eel..."

Ever seen one of Washington state's Geoduck clams? They should come with condoms.

Great success means there are those who seek to destroy you.
