Human finger found in Wendy's chili

Don't know if she will sue or not but I would like to be a fly on the wall....I can just hear it now....

"As for who is to blame, we don't want to go pointing any fingers until all the evidence is in...."

Wendy's will probably be getting a "chilli" reception for a while after this incident.

I heard the news report this morning that they think it will take several weeks to find out whose finger it is! One would think that whoever lost it, would have noticed and said something? And what other food items was this person handling AFTER they lost the tip of their finger and said nothing to anyone? I mean it did ruin a manicure, right?

Ewww!!!! Now how in the world was this finger able to get so far without the person who lost it not screaming for help?

One of my aunts once lost half a finger while using a food processor...it somehow turned on while she was putting whatever she needed to 'chop' in it. Unfortunately, it chopped her finger off.........and she had to rush to the hospital. Her finger healed fast, but because it was cut short, it looked (and still looks) weird after healing. She found the other half of her finger 1 week later at home. Her cat was sniffing it under the sofa.

This happened about 3 years ago. My poor aunt still has a short finger, and we all still laugh about her cat finding it!

Poor lady at Wendy's though...he he he. I don't think I will ever consider eating there now.

Johanna and Slick...you are TOO funny!!!! He he he!

DON'T PUT THAT FINGER IN YOUR MOUTH, YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S BEEN.

This story also reminded me of the first time I made corned beef and cabbage. While slicing the cabbage with a HUGE butcher's knife (my husband loved to cook and had all this neat cooking stuff), I accidentally sliced off the tip of my middle finger. Hubby rushed me to the ER, but had to go back home to retrieve the tip of my finger. It was successfully reattached, however I walked around for several weeks with *that* finger bandaged in the upright/extended position It healed perfectly and you can't tell anything ever happened to it, however I can't make corned beef & cabbage without thinking about my "first time."

Who SAYS PTers don't have a sense of humor????

Gee, I wonder if the Wendy's customer left a "tip"?? Get it...finger tip?....sorry, it's the best I can do for now.

She found the other half of her finger 1 week later at home. Her cat was sniffing it under the sofa.

Go figure, you spend hundreds of dollars on cat toys and all they want is some silly little widget...I mean, digit!

[RICHARD]

There's something weird about this story...

I just can't put my finger on it.

[Soapets]

Maybe they thought they'd try making "digital chili"?

I wonder if the price of their chili will be in the single digits after this event?

Commenting with some authority, with myself being a bit of a cookie monster. I can assure everyone that chili is not finger food.

[christa]

OMG! That's gross!

[CathyBogart]

This was right in my area. *shudder* No fast food for me!

[PJ's Mom]

Ugh!

I was hoping this would turn out to be some urban legend. Unfortunately, it's true.
