A TEENAGER FINISHING a roast beef sandwich at a fast-food chain chomped down on something tough that tasted like rubber, so he spat it out.
Turns out it tasted like finger. The fleshy, severed pad of an unfortunate employee’s finger, apparently.
Michigan boy Ryan Hart, 14, told the Jackson Citizen Patriot this week that once he got a good look at it, he knew right away what had been in the junior roast beef sandwich he was eating last Friday.
“I was like, ‘That (has) to be a finger,’” Hart said. “I was about to puke. It was just nasty.”
The employee at Arby’s apparently cut her finger on a meat slicer and left her station without immediately telling anyone, said Steve Hall, the environmental health director for the Jackson County health department. Her co-workers continued filling orders until they found out what had happened, he said.
John Gray, a spokesman for Atlanta-based Arby’s, released a statement apologising for what he described as an isolated and “unfortunate incident.”
Ryan’s mother, Jamie Vail, was incredulous. She and her friend, Joe Wheaton, had taken Ryan and his 11-year-old brother to the Arby’s drive-thru and she said she thought her son was joking when he exclaimed he had found a piece of a finger in his sandwich.
“Somebody loses a finger, and you keep sending food out the window? I can’t believe that,” said Vail. She and Wheaton said the severed section was about an eighth to a quarter-inch thick and at least one inch long.
Vail said she called 911 and met police at a local hospital, where her son’s blood was drawn and he was prescribed some medication. Ryan said he is feeling fine.
There have been a number of incidents in the US in recent years in which a restaurant worker’s accidentally severed flesh found its way into someone’s food.
In 2006, a diner at a TGI Friday’s in Indiana found part of a kitchen worker’s finger on his hamburger. The year before that, a North Carolina man bit into what he thought was candy in his frozen yogurt only to find it, too, belonged to a worker who had had an accident with a food-processing machine.

Last night I opened a new bag of coal and sitting on top of the coal was a little blue funnel type yoke. I have no idea what it was being used for

Have you gotten more than you bargained for unexpectedly? Or found anything where it shouldn't have been?

Remember when you'd buy a packet of crisps and find 1 or 2 crisps inside it from a completely different packet?

starbelgrade

It seems that someone was taking the term 'finger food' a bit too literally.

saa

Ah the usual fly stuck to the inside of a crisps packet, a renegade hair and a cooked slug in a chip, the odd apple as well.

The last three times I've gotten a 5-pack of rashers, there've been six in the pack!
Woo!

Oh you just reminded me of a time I bought a dairy milk (one of the baby ones) and there was a dead fly squished in it. Nyom. So I went into the shop and they swapped it for me and then I went back to the cafe where my mam was and she went mad and went back to the shop and demanded the dodgy one back. Then my Dad sent off an letter saying how I would be put off chocolate for life and it was near Easter. So a rep came out to the house and brought a letter of apology to me and to my friend (who was with me at the time) and a huge hamper of chocolate each! It was AWESOME!

Remember a neighbour of mine found a few hairs in her club milk and they did the same, wrote off a letter and received 3 big boxes of club milks!

Did you have to keep the dead fly infested dairy milk or did the rep just take your word for it?

Good timing too btw

You were tempted to revive it tho weren't you, bet you had to hold back from giving it CPR

The only free extras I like is if you buy a packet of something like ham and it says 6 slices but you end up getting 7 and you think, "Get in, 1-0, in your face recession!!!" :pac:

That horrible burned crisps you sometimes find in a packet of Tayto - and don't notice until you've eaten it

Ridiculous, you just can't get good employees anymore. She should have stayed at her station and pressed a bell then waited for her superior managers to come and deal with the situation. What if she ran to her superiors and they were busy doing important manager stuff? Or did she just leave the premises without permission? Honestly like.

I can't believe you don't know how to use your coal funnel! Next you'll be asking us how to use the 3 seashells!

Ever get a Club Milk or a Kit-Kat where the machine has failed to feed the biscuit and you end up with a solid chocolate one?

Edit: Aah CJC...those were the days my friend!

This has often happened me. My own personal favourite is the four-finger Kit-Kat with two regular fingers and two solid chocolate ones.. Oh Joy!!

Unfortunately gone are the days where they send out boxes of sweets to replace the one you sent back. It's all vouchers nowadays and rarely goes over the €10 mark per my experience with a salty mouldy looking box of Maltesers.... mmmmmm, Maltesers.....

I do remember in a certain chipper in Sligo (which shall remain nameless but closed down now anyway) where an inebriated punter handed back a Chicken Burger one night stating that he didn't want mayonaisse in it. Girl who served it to him said there wasn't any on it but when she looked at it she went green, dropped everything and ran off. Punter was handed fresh burger by another staff member and went off happy. While I was waiting for my chips to be cooked I could see three of them (including the Manager) huddled around whispering. The game was up when a fourth staff member poked their head in, whisper, whisper, whisper... then loudly "An abcess????"...... "Shhhhhhhh!!!!!!!".

Got free chips that night in exchange for my silence. Easily bought me.

I remember hearing that about KFC and a few other places. Aren't Urban legends great?

southcentralts

sometimes see bread wrapped twice though the inner one has a different use by date, wouldn't exactly call it a windfall, extra fodder for the fire maybe.

I do seem to be of the unlucky sort, but now I know where all my missing chicken nuggets and rashers and stuff are going.

Canard

Was eating ginger biscuits before and I lifted one up to find a squirming maggot under it.

I was pretty young at the time so I was just like 'hehe ewwww ' and threw them away but my GOD even thinking about it now!
