A family from I believe Toronto is suing McDonald's. Here's the story!The family (mom, dad and girl) get their food and sit down at the table. The girl takes 3 bites of her food and says "Mommy, there's something in my burger." and the mother says "Oh, well just pull it out, it's probably justa hair or something.". The girl tries pulling it out and says "Mom, this isn't hair, but it's furry." The mother says "UM! Just spit up what you've eaten!" They tell an employee and she goes and gets the manager. The manager takes it and says he'll take care of it. He throws out the food and gets another burger. He leaves and gets a refund for all their food. The family resecues the burger for proof. The discover at home it's a... RAT HEAD! The family takes a photo for proof and throws it out immediately. Now they're suing McDonald's, who's policy is "Anything that happens to a customer is none of our business." and they say something about coming to the restaurant on your own risk or something. GROSS! ------------------

I did see on the local news one night several months ago about someone getting an entire batter-dipped, deep fried chicken head in an order of McDonalds Hot Wings. It didn't happen here, but somewhere in the U.S. . They even had the guy who got it hold it up for the camera. If you just looked at it, it resembled everything else in the box, but upon closer examination you could see it was a head.I didn't see the big deal in it.... it probably just tasted like chicken. I found this on the web about the "Chicken Head" Woman Claims She Discovered Chicken Head at McDonalds
November 30, 2000, 01:00 PM A customer at a McDonald's restaurant in Newport News, Va., says she got more than she bargained for when she received her order. Katherine Ortega said found a fried chicken's head in the box of chicken wings she ordered Wednesday. Ortega said someone who wasn't looking closely could have easily mistaken the chicken's head for another piece of chicken, like the leg or a wing. The chicken's beak, the cone on top of its head and some feathers are visible. Ortega said she wants to know how the chicken's head could have made it past inspectors and into the hands of a customer. "I usually look at my food, but I shouldn't have to look that closely to see that,” Ortega said. “My 5-year-old probably wouldn't have looked. He probably would have thought it was a chicken leg and eaten it.” Oretega says the manager at McDonald's offered the Ortega's another order of chicken and offered to return the chicken's head to the distribution company. Ortega declined. The health department sent an inspector to the restaurant to look through the rest of the bag of chicken wings. Officials didn't find anything unusual. The incident is being reported to the Department of Agriculture. A McDonalds spokesman tells kgw.com that it is investigating the incident, and has no confirmation yet that the chicken head was definitely served by the restaurant.

iNo problemo, guys!Not to worry unless people start showing up at traffic accident scenes with napkins, knives, and forks. I've seen stranger things on the web, but trust me, you don't want to know what.
<shudders> BTW, Remember the Twilight Zone episode "To Serve Humans?" Also, I seem to remember an MP3 floating around thats a take-off on the "Beggin' Strips" soundtrack. "Oh boy! Oh boy! its PEOPLE!!! Nyumm, nyumm, nyummm!"
