  • - Have you ever ordered food and been disappointed

  • 'cause it wasn't exactly what you expected?

  • Well, trust me, it could've been worse.

  • If you like to eat out at restaurants or fast food joints,

  • you may have experienced a situation or two

  • where you ordered wasn't exactly what was delivered.

  • Oh man, that sucks, huh?

  • But at least you didn't almost eat bullets,

  • a razor blade, or a mouse.

  • Today I've gathered the absolute craziest cases of people

  • who have reported finding little bonuses in their order.

  • And if you forgot the value of a home-cooked meal,

  • you'll remember after this.

  • So let's get right into it.

  • Here are 10 disgusting things found in fast food.

  • Number one is a tongue eating parasite in tuna.

  • Aw, look at that cute little guy.

  • It looks like a baby Pokemon.

  • It's a flesh eating parasite, oh.

  • In mid January of 2015, 28-year old Zoe Louise Butler

  • of Nottingham, England purchased a can

  • of Princes brand tuna chunks at her local grocery store.

  • Upon prying open the lid,

  • she noticed a pair of little black eyes looking back at her.

  • Snapping a photo of it, she shared it on Twitter,

  • asking for opinions as to

  • what the tiny little creature might be.

  • After much speculation over Eric,

  • which was the name she gave the translucent little creature,

  • and using the hashtag #tunagate,

  • the Natural History Museum suggested

  • that it's probably the head of a Cymothoa exigua,

  • also known as a tongue eating louse.

  • In case you didn't know,

  • the tongue eating louse is a parasite

  • that lives and feeds on the tongues of certain fish

  • by entering through their gills.

  • After a long Twitter war of speculation,

  • ranging from a tadpole to a turtle,

  • Eric's species was identified

  • through a series of lab tests on February 6th, 2015.

  • Unbelievably, Butler did not seek any compensation

  • from the tuna company for the incident,

  • but I'm guessing she's probably gonna avoid tuna for awhile.

  • Number two is finger in a sandwich.

  • Okay, class, rule number one

  • for working at a fast food joint.

  • If you cut off your finger,

  • just walk out and don't tell anybody.

  • Nothing's gonna happen!

  • In May of 2012, Ryan Hart, a 14 year old boy

  • from Jackson, Michigan,

  • bit into an Arby's Jr. Roast Beef Sandwich

  • when he encountered something

  • that was a little tough to chew on.

  • What is this, parsley?

  • Oh, God!

  • Claiming that it tasted disgusting

  • and seemed rubbery in texture,

  • the teen spit it out to discover

  • that he had bit on someone else's chopped off finger

  • and it was in his mouth.

  • An investigation into the incident led health officials

  • to conclude that a worker had actually severed her finger

  • while operating a meat slicer,

  • and for some reason left the area

  • without telling anybody about it.

  • Soon after, another worker,

  • realizing that the order still had to be completed,

  • went to her station and continued preparing the meal.

  • The injured worker was treated in hospital,

  • and the Arby's closed for cleaning, you know,

  • before any other unmentioned body parts just pop up.

  • Is it roast beef or an eyeball?

  • Nobody knows.

  • Number three is a condom in clam chowder.

  • When you're eating clam chowder,

  • it's best to use protection.

  • During the night of February 26th, 2002

  • in Irvine, California, 48 year old Laila Sultan was dining

  • with three of her friends

  • at a McCormick and Schmick's seafood restaurant.

  • She was enjoying a nice bowl of clam chowder

  • that she had ordered

  • until she bit into something (smacks lips) rubbery.

  • She complained to her friends, but they just teased her,

  • saying, "Oh, it's probably just clam."

  • But, unable to chew it, she decided to spit it out,

  • only to discover that she was actually trying

  • to consume an unpackaged and seemingly used condom.

  • Yeah, I'ma give you a minute to marinate on that one.

  • The seafood restaurant chain initially claimed

  • that this was an obvious hoax,

  • but soon after she sued them for psychological damages

  • and actually won an undisclosed amount in the settlement.

  • Sadly, the man who obviously loved his soup

  • a little bit too much was never found.

  • I can see the headline now: "Soup molester on the loose."

  • Number four is a mouse in a loaf of bread.

  • (laughs) Nothing like a dead mouse in bread, oh boy!

  • In January of 2009, while making a lunch

  • of cheese sandwiches for his twin sons and daughter,

  • 41 year old Stephen Forse of Kidlington, England

  • noticed something strange on the side

  • of the bread that he was using.

  • What is that, mold?

  • Kids, lunch is cancelled.

  • The loaf of bread that Forse had purchased

  • through an online grocer included an entire dead mouse

  • that was embedded in it.

  • Disgusted over the fact that he had already used slices

  • from that particular loaf earlier to feed his kids,

  • Forse notified the government of his gross find,

  • and environmental health officers collected the samples

  • from his home.

  • But if you thought that was disturbing,

  • the tail of the rodent was missing

  • and made Forse even more grossed out because he realized

  • that his family had already previously consumed it.

  • After an investigation, it was determined

  • that the lone mouse had made its way

  • into the baking facilities

  • and got compacted into the side of the bread crust. (gags)

  • After admitting negligence,

  • and following proper food safety regulations,

  • Premier Foods was forced to pay an equivalent

  • of $21,000 U.S.

  • That's not even a lot of money.

  • $21,000?

  • The guy and his family ate a rat tail.

  • That man is never going to again be able

  • to go close to Disneyland.

  • A piece of me's in your belly! (laughs)

  • Number five are razor blades in burgers.

  • In 2007, Cracker Barrel mysteriously pulled all hamburgers

  • from hundreds of restaurants very suddenly.

  • Patrons were confused when they showed up unable

  • to order a burger which was a popular menu item.

  • Well, as it turns out, a woman in South Carolina reported

  • ordering a burger as she had always done,

  • except this time it had a razor blade embedded in it.

  • Hmm, yeah, this burger tastes like a lot of blood, mm.

  • After biting into the burger,

  • she actually cut the inside of her mouth

  • with a piece of metal that was embedded in the patty.

  • 313 restaurants out of a total of 557 were all told

  • to remove the burgers from their restaurants

  • for fears that there may be more situations like this.

  • Strangely, the burgers are delivered

  • to them premade and frozen

  • from their biggest supplier, Cargill Meats,

  • who investigated the issue.

  • That's not even the disturbing part.

  • What disturbs me is that they only shut down

  • 313 restaurants out of 557.

  • They're like, "Okay, guys,

  • "we're gonna roll the dice on this one.

  • "Uh, these ones probably don't have razor blades.

  • "These ones do.

  • "Okay, let's sell some burgers."

  • Number six is bandage in a pizza.

  • After ordering a large Pizza Hut Supreme Pizza

  • on June 8th, 2011,

  • 52 year old Clifton Park, New Jersey resident Ken Wieczerza

  • ate a portion of it and then put the rest

  • in the fridge as leftovers.

  • So the next day he decided, "Mm, I want some tasty pizza,"

  • so he took it out, took a bite of one of the cold pizzas,

  • only to discover something a little too chewy in the dough.

  • Turning over that piece, he found a blue adhesive bandage.

  • Not only that, but the bandage came complete

  • with someone else's dried blood in the cotton

  • and had actually been baked into the bottom

  • of the crust of the pizza.

  • But in possibly the strangest twist,

  • once being a distribution manager himself,

  • he actually felt sympathetic for the company,

  • so he tried keeping quiet,

  • complaining directly to Pizza Hut, but that didn't work.

  • After being completely ignored by the company,

  • he preserved the evidence in a sealed bag in the freezer

  • and continued to complain.

  • But after an entire month of being ignored,

  • he decided to finally go public with his experience.

  • This time Pizza Hut took notice.

  • But instead of reaching out to him,

  • they publicly refuted his claims.

  • Um, our employees only use red bandages.

  • This man is a fraud.

  • Number seven are nails in mac and cheese.

  • Bet you didn't know that a simple bowl

  • of mac and cheese could quickly become a yummy nightmare.

  • On August 24th, 2008, while halfway through eating

  • a Tesco Value Macaroni and Cheese Ready Meal,

  • 21 year old bride-to-be Rebecca Shorten

  • came across a troubling sight.

  • There among the orange cheesy noodles were two nails.

  • Just a little smidgen upset,

  • she immediately stopped eating the meal,

  • snapped a bunch of photos of her find, and set it aside.

  • However, soon after, she became very ill

  • and had to go to the emergency room to be checked out.

  • I think you can guess where this is going.

  • Doctors quickly discovered

  • that there had been a third nail in the dinner

  • and, yes, she had accidentally eaten it.

  • The doctors actually recommended

  • that it would pass on its own,

  • but that night she went home

  • and experienced even worse pains.

  • She was rushed back to the hospital,

  • where she remained under observation and on morphine

  • until the nail, uh, passed.

  • Oh, but, Matt, did she get a big payday?

  • No, no.

  • For all of her trouble,

  • Tesco only offered Shorten a refund on the meal,

  • which amounted to less than a dollar.

  • They did, however, recall all similar frozen meals.

  • Man, I guess it takes four nails or more

  • to get a payout these days.

  • It's tough times.

  • Number eight is a tampon in steak.

  • On July 10th, 2009, a man named Axel Sanz-Claus

  • was fine-dining at the Bull and Bear Restaurant,

  • which is located

  • inside New York's famous Waldorf-Astoria hotel.

  • A tourist from Germany, Sanz-Claus was chewing away

  • at the expensive steak and spinach that he ordered

  • when he suddenly found himself unable

  • to break down whatever was in his mouth.

  • Spitting it out, he was horrified to learn

  • that he had been chewing on a used tampon.

  • Oh my gross!

  • After trying to sterilize his mouth by gargling brandy

  • and running to the bathroom,

  • Sanz-Claus had restaurant staff call him an ambulance,

  • fearing that he had been exposed to an illness.

  • At the hospital, doctors did confirm

  • that the item was what he thought it was,

  • and he was tested for hepatitis.

  • As if that wasn't enough, he was then instructed

  • to wait two weeks and then get an AIDS test.

  • Meanwhile, the Waldorf-Astoria launched an investigation

  • into the Bull and Bear Restaurant, but found no evidence

  • that the tampon came from their kitchen,

  • and called the matter highly suspicious.

  • Highly suspicious?

  • I call it highly disturbing!

  • Ugh, I'm gonna yak.

  • Number nine is a knife in a sub.

  • In June of 2008, 27 year old John Agnesini

  • was just a few bites into his foot-long cold cut sandwich

  • at a Subway restaurant in New York City

  • when he spotted the melted plastic of a handle

  • and the shine of a blade.

  • One more bite, and his teeth would have found

  • an 18 centimeter long serrated knife

  • that had been carelessly left in the sub.

  • When Subway investigated, they found out

  • that the employee had accidentally dropped the blade

  • into the dough that he soon after baked

  • into foot-long loaves of bread.

  • Hmm, so many choices.

  • Do I want cheese, garlic, or bloody mouth?

  • The contaminants in his first few bites

  • from the plastic handle caused him

  • to contract food poisoning,

  • and he sued Subway for a million dollars.

  • But the two parties eventually settled

  • out of court for $20,000.

  • But unfortunately for the fast food giant,

  • Agnesini wasn't the only person

  • to find such a thing in their sub.

  • In December of 2008, Martin Venner of Cornwall, England was

  • about to dig into his Sweet Chilli Chicken foot-long sub

  • when he discovered another even longer knife

  • had been baked right into the bread as well.

  • Sadly, he was less fortunate than Agnesini

  • and was only offered a replacement sandwich and 50 pounds.

  • (scoffs) 50 pounds, yeah, 50 pounds of bull!

  • And number 10 is bullets in a hotdog.

  • On May 6th, 2004, a hungry 34 year old woman

  • named Olivia Chanes went to a snack bar in a Costco

  • in Irvine, California.

  • Relaxing from a long ordeal of shopping,

  • she ordered a delicious-looking hotdog,

  • but what she received wasn't as edible as she had expected.

  • In fact, and pardon the pun for this,

  • but what she got really blew her away.

  • Only a few bites in, she bit down into something super hard.

  • Spitting it out,

  • she found a nine millimeter handgun bullet on her plate.

  • But the trauma did not end there, because soon afterward,

  • she began feeling agonizing abdominal pains.

  • At that point, she was rushed to the hospital

  • where she was given X-rays,

  • which revealed that she had actually swallowed a bullet

  • before finding the second one in her hotdog.

  • Eventually, she passed the live ammunition naturally,

  • and Costco performed an investigation

  • into their meats and packaging departments.

  • Yo, I gotta load this gun,

  • but I gotta finish my meatpacking shift.

  • I'ma do both at the same time.

  • Soon after, the police were involved,

  • but they reported that they had no idea

  • where the bullets even came from.

  • You know, not many people can say

  • that they've had a bullet pass right through them,

  • but in Olivia's case,

  • that's a club that she definitely belongs to.

  • So those were the 10 nastiest things found in fast food.

  • But as always, and I almost regret saying this,

  • I want to know from you guys in the comments,

  • is there anything that you have eaten at a fast food joint,

  • or anything that you know someone else has eaten

  • at a fast food place

  • that has just been absolutely disgusting?

  • I wanna hear your horrific story below.
