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.

I wish the Marine would have B'atch slapped (POS) kerri in that photo for failure to control his finger. NSNR

New Wendy's recipe:

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.

Celery in chili? That's really disgusting!

I hope my husband doesn't see this story. He is diabetic and Wendy's chili is one of the very few fast-food alternatives for someone having to watch their diet closely.

Not anymore. It's been fingered.

Wow, I ate at Wendy's for lunch yesterday and I had the chili instead of french fries. Thankfully I didn't find any fingers, toes, or other parts.

What I'm really wondering is how does someone lose a finger and not notice it till it's cooked and packed into the chili?? I would imagine it got lopped off in whatever industrial kitchen prepares the chili. How could you not notice that you were missing a finger and shut down the line till you found it? I'm pretty sure I would notice it if I accidentaly had one of mine cut off.

The finger would make a killing on eBay...

Just what does this person have against finger foods?

What color nail polish would you like with your chili? Flesh Tone, or Pinky Pink?

[BonneBlue]

This is more than disgusting, especially so early in the morning. Have a heart.

will say, this is one lawsuit I will NOT say is frivolous.

Good for at least $50K, I'd say ...

I'm pretty sure I would notice it if I accidentaly had one of mine cut off.

Which leads one then to wonder if it wasn't an entire person that wound up in the industrial food grinder?

[Al Gator]

Pickle it first!

[Rebelbase]

The Health Dept. has every angle covered don't they?

[Al Gator]

Well, if you're an illegal, working illegally in the meat processing plant, and the slicer gets you, you wrap the stump in duck tape and blame it on the dog!

The county medical examiner said the human finger was cooked but not decomposed.

So stop whining and finish your lunch.

Perhaps it shoud read "Employees must wash hands and count fingers before returning to work"

Lucky it was a finger, she could have eaten a Lorena Bobbitt "Blue Plate" special..................!

"That would put you off fast food for ever!"

It will probably add years to her life, an added benefit.

I remember, years ago, reading about a Kentucky Fried Chicken Restaurant in Chillicothe, Ohio and a woman who had purchased a bucket of chicken to take home for her family's dinner.

(Of course this was a few years ago and many chomped on this greasy fare.)

At any rate, when the family dug in a Kentucky Fried rat was pulled out of the bucket. It seems that the workers in that KFC store didn't care whether or not they lost their jobs are were a bunch of goof-offs.

They were fired and the stores were closed and Chillicothe, Ohio was without a KFC outlet until the memories were erased.

If you don't eat your meat,
you can't have any pudding.

How can you have any pudding
if you don't eat your meat?

Ughhh!
