Froggy Salad



From Yahoo News comes
this story
about a woman eating at a Burger King restaurant in the Netherlands who found a live frog in her salad.

Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad quoted the customer, identified as 23-year-old Astrid Roek, as saying "it was a big black thing, a frog or a toad."

Well at least it didn't happen in Florida.

I'd take a frog over a finger or something, I guess. Still, yuck.

Yeah, so would I. I mean it's like, what is less freakish, a piece of a finger or a whole frog?
Oh, what a world...

Anyone else grossed out by that photo, or is it just me?

It says in the article that people aren't as litigious in the Netherlands as they are in the U.S. I think the woman may receive free salad for a year as compensation ;-)

I know I will give my future salads a good looking over from now on. Yikes!

At least it wasn't a Wendy's, they need a break from the whole "inedible and disgusting added toppings in the food" situation.

"I'll have a chili, no fingers!"

cube said...

jessey: yes! a nice turn on the old "pull my finger" phrase... one chili, hold the finger ;-)

Just last week, our family was sitting in the family room and just talking. A centipede fell from the air vent and landed at my son's feet. We all hopped up to see what it was, and my son said that had it landed on his bare feet, he would have had a hissy fit. It was kinda of freaky and funny at the same time.
