I wasn't aware you could get a bagel in NW Florida, but then I'm more likely to eat at the Dixie Dandy rather than McD's.

If bad teeth comes between that couple's marriage, they had problems already.

"The suit did not say what exactly was wrong with the bagel."
Another nuisance suit filed by an attorney in need of a car payment.

violated an "implied warranty that the food sold was reasonably fit for human consumption." Which McDonald's are they talking about?
To: Indy Pendance
So is this frivolous lawsuit going to heal the guy's teeth and marraige ?

Good grief, this happened just accross the bridge from me.
Usually it's people from Canada ("Snowbirds") who come down here to complain and find fault with everything they can, so my first assumption is that the so-called victims are from Canada or the northern tier of U.S. states that have learned to act like Canadians.
You never want to be behind them in the check-out line at a supermarket or you'll quickly learn how these people act when on vacation with a lot of time on their hands.
They do nothing but complain and nit-pick about every little thing. Then they get on our highways and drive 8 mph in a 45 mph zone. They especially love to do this when it's on a narrow highway so that you can't pass them.
The free enterprise solution to their problem is to use your wallet and take your business elsewhere. It is not necessary to sue everyone that displeases you.
I refuse to patronize the local McDonalds for a different reason. They are the slowest McD's in the world...but then that fits in with the Canadians as they have an affinity for slow.

If anything, McDonald's should be sued for selling bagels in the first place.
What do they market it as? McBagel, McCream Cheese and McLox?

There are lots of examples of frivilous suits, its just that this McD's Coffee incident is not one fo (sic) them.
Basically your article says that any company that makes a product that goes to a certain temperature is guilty of making a defective product. What about soldering irons? Those go alot higher than 180 degrees. What if someone slips and burns themself with that? Are you prepared to outlaw all products that go over 180 degrees?

"Excuse me waitress, could you take this coffee back to the kitchen, its too hot."
To: capt. norm
I don't patronize McD's at all - they donate money to gun grabbers like The Brady Campaign To Disarm America.
