SAN FRANCISCO, California (Reuters) -- A diner at a Wendy's fast food restaurant in San Jose, California, found a human finger in a bowl of chili prepared by the chain, local officials said Wednesday.

"This individual apparently did take a spoonful, did have a finger in their mouth and then, you know, spit it out and recognized it," said Ben Gale, director of the department of environmental health for Santa Clara County. "Then they had some kind of emotional reaction and vomited."

Local officials launched an investigation after the incident Tuesday night and the medical examiner determined Wednesday that the object was a human finger.

Officials are trying to determine whether the finger came in the raw materials Wendy's used to prepare the chili, Gale said.

Wendy's International Inc. corporate office did not immediately return a call for comment. Wendy's is the third-largest hamburger chain.

Well, Wendy's does claim to have fresh meat at least every other day.

Guess they had to cut some budget.

In the article on our local news station web site, it had that they "counted the fingers of all the Wendy's employees' " and determined that the 'digit' didn't come from any of them..... that cracked me up.

This little piggy went to market
This little piggy stayed home
This little piggy had roast beef
This little piggy had none
And this little piggy went wee, wee, wee all the way home

I'm wondering why the person who lost the finger didn't notice and
report it missing!

"digit"

I'm not sure what's worse, this incident, the one where someone found a mouse in their chili at Wendy's a few years ago or the one where the woman found a fried chicken head in her order at McDonalds...

the chicken head is by far the coolest....

What's the lesson learned here?

Don't eat the chili at Wendy's.

That guy has tapped into a quality-control problem with Wendy's

Not to say, the restaurant's kitchen is really losing its' touch

A few years ago, about a mile from one of the school's I observed at, a woman went to McDonald's and got a McChicken. As she bit into it, something gooey shot into her mouth. She just assumed it was mayo. Turns out it was a tumor on the chicken.
