A diner bit into a segment of human finger while digging into a bowl of chili at a San Jose Wendy's restaurant Tuesday night, Santa Clara County health officials said today.

Yum!

Does this in any way infringe upon KFC's copyright rights on finger licking good?



You can't help but think that the colonel had a hand in this.

Apparently the woman said that she knew something was wrong with her chili right from the start, but she just couldn't put her finger on it.

Wendy's official spokesperson stated that 'Failures are finger posts on the road to achievement.'

How gross.

The chili meat at Wendy's is just the leftover burger patties that aren't used during the previous day...

Yep cville, you are exactly right. I worked there when I was in high school for about 2 weeks. And I witnessed the chili making. GROSSS!!

And on the finger thing, HOW DID SOMEONE NOT NOTICE A MISSING FINGER????

and now, they're using any fingers that weren't used during the previous day...

I'm going to Wendy's today, ordering a vat of their finger-chili and spicing it up with a little toe-basco sauce...

You were in high school for only two weeks?

I knew there was a reason behind your posts...

I worked at Wendys for only two weeks. I'm not the Grammar idiot here pal!

Wendy's was my first "real" job (as opposed to working on the weekends for my dad in exchange for an allowance). I think I lasted 6 weeks, and participated in the chili-making process, unfortunately.

From the article...

But he said the finger had been cooked at a high enough temperature to kill any viruses, including hepatitis or HIV, and it was unlikely that she will suffer any health effects...

Well, as long as it's fully cooked --- Mmmm just like chicken and pork, make sure it's well cooked!

cville and Niki -- you gots all your fingers????

this is almost as bad as the lady who found a fried chicken head mixed in with her mighty wings from McDonalds awhile back.........

This adds a whole new meaning to the locker room talk of "Did you get her digits?"

Another possible conversation: "I was at Wendy's the other day and the cashier gave me the finger."

Also, could this be a new substitution item for the fries in the combo meal?

cha-ching.

Headin out to Wendy's for lunch....anyone want anything ?????

Wendy's Spokesperson: "It's important that we don't point any fingers..."

There's something really deranged about this thread, I just can't put a finger on what it might be.

Wow that is disgusting. I aint never getting close to that place again. I think i have a sick feeling from something i ate earlier today, but i cant place my finger on what it was

Ouch! My stomach hurts, but each post makes me start laughing all over again.

For the answer, re-wind to your 11th grade American lit class, and Upton Sinclair's The Jungle. Over in PG County, we weren't allowed to read the whole book -- skipped from Frank Norris's Octopus to Dreiser's Sister Carrie. Our principal thought that Sinclair's novel was too "disgusting".

It's about a meatpacking plant. Teddy Roosevelt read the book, and refused to eat sausages ever again.

While this has nothing to do with a missing finger, it does apply to chili.

Every chili cook knows that aged meat is the best for use in chili, I've known expert Texan chefs that swear by putting old hot dog and hamburg meat in their chili...

To each his own I guess.

I read The Jungle in high school and didn't eat sausage for 15 years. I still don't eat it that often.

A sociology teacher in high school read exerpts from The Jungle right before lunch... what's her problem??

My principal was a "he", although I can't remember his name without digging up my yearbook. Northwestern High School.

Mr. <X> was sick of hearing parents complain about the book.

Was there a "point" to this thread ?
