I know it's not on the list of free condiments that you can ask for extra of on your whopper.

 

[Boom]

Can't really begrudge him. I'd probably sue them too.

Needles are serious business.

 

[Wolfwood]

"Wait, are you telling me you wanted the burger...without needles?"

 

[Lencho01]

The lawsuit said Bartholomew suffered "severe physical injury, including injuries to his stomach, rectum and tongue" because of Burger King's negligence. He also suffered "anxiety, fear, loss of sleep, extreme distress and lost wages."

Does it really need to be said?

 

[Rocketman]

Oh man. That's terrible.
Is it being theorized that he did it himself to get rich, or did Burger King really do this?
Either way... just crazy.

That's why while it makes sense to never trust strangers to make your food, with that mindset you can starve to death if you can't cook.

Duke's implication was that the customer planted the needles himself, much the same way a woman planted a severed finger in her Wendy's chilli a few years ago. I'm with Duke on this one. I just can't see someone in the grill area placing several hypodermic needles in a beef patty unnoticed. This guy will get exposed as a fraud. And I'm having Burger King for lunch.

I never see burger king workers wearing gloves.

That's not good.

 

[Duke]

I never see burger king workers wearing gloves.

I no longer eat at Burger King because of the excess mayo & overall dissatisfaction with their food.

Nothing beats In-n-Out Burger

 

[Secret Fawful]

What a pansy. Real men such as myself eat needleburgers for breakfast.

Would you want to pick your nose with gloves on?

Quote from the article :

"The lawsuit notes there have been previous injuries from foreign objects, including needles, in Burger King's hamburgers."

So, it is not an isolated incident.

Anyway, the guy must have a really big mouth and not chew his food very much to manage to swallow a needle without noticing.

I find somehow funny the after effects :

"He also suffered "anxiety, fear, loss of sleep, extreme distress and lost wages." ( about the wages some people in the article commentary said that the military pays you even during hospitalization ).

That sounds a bit a drama queenish for a military guy.

There is no Burger Kind here just McDonald and Quick.

I'm sorry...I have to side with the Defendant in this case. Being stupid, putting a hot coffee cup in between your legs while driving and suing because your stupidity got you injured is one thing, but a needle in a burger is total negligence not on the man's part but the fast food joint's.

Aye, what a wimpy.

Dear Secret Fawful,

You were just talking about the Popeye movie, c'mon.

fixed it for you... t:

and that's what's called a White Castle slider...

 

[SuperFerret]

Does it really need to be said?

I guess it should be if he was injured there.

My question is how the hell did a needle get to his rectum without sticking somewhere else first?

We don't have them in georgia. I wish we did though.

 

[Heretic]

In Burger King's defense...the needles were the healthiest part of the burger.

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

I'm so convinced this guy's a big con-artist, like the woman who put a finger in the Wendy's chilli a few years back.

I mentioned In-n-Out. Some other fastfood joints I like... Sonic's, Fudruckers, Subway, Wendy's, Chick Fil-a.... some I hate, McDonalds, Roy Rogers, Arby's, Carl Jr's, Checkers, but the absolute worst is Jack-in-the-Box. Those burgers taste like a composite of mud, cow crap and hair. Plus, they come free with salmonella poisoning.

 

[Kahoot]

Did he swallow an needle before he noticed it was in his food? That just seems weird, does he no chew?
