Wendy's Customer Bites Into Cooked Finger While Eating Chili
POSTED: 7:14 am EST March 24, 2005
SAN JOSE, Calif. -- A diner's meal at a San Jose Wendy's restaurant brings a whole new meaning to the term ‘finger food.'
Health authorities in California report a woman bit into a human finger while eating a bowl of chili at a Wendy's in Tuesday night. She immediately spit out the finger and warned others to stop eating. Then she got sick.
The county medical examiner said the human finger was cooked but not decomposed. Authorities temporarily closed the Wendy's and seized all the ingredients at the restaurant.
Officials counted all the fingers of the Wendy's workers -- and say none had a missing digit. Authorities think the finger must have come from one of Wendy's suppliers.

She did see the finder, and did not eat it.
The radio report this morning claimed that when she showed it to the Wendy's employees, they poked at it and told her that it was celery.
This will rank right up there in my all-time favorite lines in a story. Just imagine, "Alright everybody FREEZE! Now, Let me see your fingers! Slowly... slowly..."
As for the taste? I heard it's just like eating buffalo wings!
The mental image will stay with me forever - yuck!
Images of "The Hitcher" come to mind.

That's disgusting! Cooked fingers are much better breaded and with honey mustard sauce.
Ok. Someone finally made me Laugh Out Loud!
Looks like Wendy gave her the finger!
Let's get serious here. This may involve chicken fingers which are never served singly. Where are the other digits???

Where's Dave?
Oh, Waitress! There is a finger in my chilli!
Methinks the lawyers are lined up already....
If you think it's BS, where do you think the lady got the finger???
Okay... I survived this thread until that... That was funny!
Lucky Wishbone in Tucson has been serving "Mom Steak Fingers" and "Pop Steak Fingers" for years.
Looks like this woman has now got Wendy's under her thumb.
