"A woman said she bit into a partial finger served in a bowl of chili at a Wendy's restaurant."

" Employees at the Wendy's were checked and the fingertip didn't come from any of them, officials said, adding that the well-cooked finger may have come from a food processing plant that supplies the company."

"All of our chili suppliers report no accidents," he said.

" Investigators seized the remaining chili and closed the restaurant for a few hours."

This is a total scam. I am willing to bet she obtained the finger somehow then cooked it and put it in the chili. Probably she got it from a cadaver, the coroner only checked to see if it was human and said it was cooked. I would venture the cooking of it rendered it a bit hard to prove how long it had been in a necrotic state. This is not an actual mishap with the meat grinders or what have you. She's just pissed that the coffee lawsuit was already done and had to get creative.

a friend of mine in college said his roommate used to order $4 poppers from the same restaurant at the same time every day and make them deliver to the apartment everyday and he never once gave the dude a tip. he did this for something like 6 months. later on my friend overheard some guys talking about how, after a month of this shit, they started fucking with his food, including going so far as to jerking off in the batter.

Never fuck with the people that serve your food or cut your hair. You have to tip them, or they will most definately fuck you up.

How did he manage to do that?

In HS I nicked off a bit of a finger off into a big vat of mozzarea cheese and the owner of the place just picked off the top of the cheese with my blood and flesh and used the rest. I was using an electric, industrial grater so there was about $50 worth of cheese there that she salvaged..

You know, I once found a chicken vertebrae, fully entact, in a bowl of soup. I took it home and put it on my shelf. I still have it. It just now occurred to me that this is America and I could've made some money off of that. Sad

[QUOTE=random internet news source]LAS VEGAS Apr 8, 2005 — The woman who claims she bit into a human finger while eating chili at a Wendy's restaurant has a history of filing lawsuits including a claim against another fast-food restaurant.

Anna Ayala, 39, who hired a San Jose, Calif., attorney to represent her in the Wendy's case, has been involved in at least half a dozen legal battles in the San Francisco Bay area, according to court records.

She brought a suit against an ex-boss in 1998 for sexual harassment and sued an auto dealership in 2000, alleging the wheel fell off her car. That suit was dismissed after Ayala fired her lawyer, who said she had threatened him.

Speaking through the front door of her Las Vegas home Friday, Ayala claimed police are out to get her and were unnecessarily rough as they executed a search warrant at her home on Wednesday.

"Lies, lies, lies, that's all I am hearing," she said. "They should look at Wendy's. What are they hiding? Why are we being victimized again and again?"

Ayala acknowledged, however, that her family received a settlement for their medical expenses about a year ago after her daughter, Genesis, got sick from food at an El Pollo Loco restaurant in Las Vegas. She declined to provide any further details.

San Jose police have joined the Las Vegas police fraud unit in the investigation into how a 1 1/2-long fingertip ended up in Ayala's bowl of chili at the San Jose Wendy's on March 22. Ayala has sued the franchise owner, Fresno, Calif.-based JEM Management Corp.

Wendy's spokesman Bob Bertini would not comment on the investigation Friday.

The company, however, maintains that the finger did not enter the food chain in its ingredients. The employees at the San Jose store were found to have all their fingers, and no suppliers of Wendy's ingredients have reported any hand or finger injuries, the company said.

On Thursday, Wendy's offered a $50,000 reward to anyone providing verifiable information leading to the positive identification of the origin of the finger.[/QUOTE]hmm.

[QUOTE=random internet news source]Disgusted Internet Surfer Discovers Finger in Google Image Search

By Matthew T. Sussman

Cleveland, OH - A casual Internet surfer discovered a human finger in a routine Google Image Search, authorities said Wednesday.

Harold Barker, 24, typed "Eliza Dushku" into Google's image search engine, and after a few pages, discovered a picture of a human finger.

"It was revolting," Barker said. "You don't expect to find something like that when looking for picture of hot women."

Barker did not download the picture of the finger, but he was rattled. "It was on my computer for a few seconds," Barker said. "I can still picture it there. God, that freaks me out."

Image Search is used by millions of Google users who wish to find pictures rather than Web sites. While the convenience of the search has helped several people, search results do not always come up with the images they want.

"I remember one time I put in a query for 'dart', because I wanted some clipart of darts," said freelance graphic artist Jeff Bzdenowski. "Up came this map of the Europe. What the hell?"

Google did not return calls Wednesday, but did release a statement saying they are "looking into it" and recommended to all Google users to "refine their searches so they can conveniently and efficiently find the images they want."

While Barker has not yet decided to sue Google, he says he's still "shaken up over the whole incident."

"You search Google for images of Eliza Dushku, you expect images of Eliza Dushku," Barker said. "It doesn't make sense. How does that even get there?"

Computer expert Nathaniel R. Beechstone believes Barker's incident is a rarity in Google Image Search's algorithm.

"The way they set up their search algorithm, it would take a monumental effort by Webmasters across the globe to rig the filenames and content of their images," Beechstone said.

But Barker isn't convinced.

"It's flawed," he said. "I wanted some hot body pics, but not of fingers."

When asked if he would use Google's service in the future, he was uncertain. "I'd like to say I would, but when things like this happen, it's hard to go back. Even if I used Yahoo's image search, that same fear grips me. I just wish Google was more careful. I wish they'd fess up to some wrongdoing."

Added Barker, "But I'll still eat at Wendy's. I love that chili."[/QUOTE]

I've been saying this since the beginning.

But she dropped her suit when it was found out she had tried to press corporations for money before. So, she gets nothing.
