You Want Fingers with That?

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A diner at a Wendy's fast food restaurant in San Jose, California, found a human finger in a bowl of chili prepared by the chain, local officials said on Wednesday.

"This individual apparently did take a spoonful, did have a finger in their mouth and then, you know, spit it out and recognized it," said Ben Gale, director of the department of environmental health for Santa Clara County. "Then they had some kind of emotional reaction and vomited."

Local officials launched an investigation after the incident on Tuesday night and the medical examiner determined on Wednesday that the object was a human finger.

Officials are trying to determine if the finger came in the raw materials Wendy's used to prepare the chili, Gale said.

Wendy's International Inc. corporate office did not immediately return a call for comment. Wendy's is the third-largest hamburger chain.

That's revolting! Although, how would you not see a finger in the spoon? Soup spoons are just not that deep. It sounds a little fishy to me, like it was planted.

Touche!, although I don't usually put severed members in my mouth (especially from people I don't know).

Actually, eating chilli from Wendy's sounds revolting enough by itself.

UUGGGGGGH!! I USED TO WORK AT A WENDY'S! I can't imagine anyone going for the chili with or without the finger. Man, if you only knew how they made that chili and how old it was by the time they made a new pot.
