Mom disgusted after finding horrifying item in son\u2019s McDonald\u2019s Happy Meal Facebook: Gemma Kirk-BonnerA mom in England made a horrifying discovery after opening her son\u2019s Happy Meal, and the fast food chain has responded. On October 18, 2023, English mom, Gemma-Kirk Bonner ordered a Happy Meal for her son at their local fast-food restaurant in Barrow-in-Furness. To her horror, she made a startling discovery while feeding her one-year-old son. Inside the container, among the french fries, was none other than a cigarette butt. She told The Mail, \u201cgave my three-year-old his without looking. Then I put my one-year-old in his high chair, and I was feeding him by hand. I was picking the [food] up for him.\u201d Then she found the cigarette, which was surrounded by ash. The worst part is, that she claims when she contacted the local restaurant, they didn\u2019t seem to care. In a Facebook post, Gemma wrote, \u201cForget the toy\u2026 now comes with cigarette end and ash for extra taste\u2026 Phoned up to make a complaint but rudely spoken to then she put the phone down on me.\u201d Other mom\u2019s rallied to support Gemma, with one commenting that this should mean \u201cfree happy meals for life.\u201d Not the first time this has happened Reports of customers finding unsavoury items in their McDonald\u2019s meals aren\u2019t uncommon. Throughout the years, we\u2019ve heard of everything from a bandaid in a bag or fries, and a human fingernail in a cheeseburger. Some are more sinister than others, with a report of a young girl in Massachusetts biting down on her hamburger, only to find a needle inside. In 2010, 18-year-old Hayley Parsons found live bugs crawling around in her food, then 6 years later, American Football coach Todd Haley sued the chain for 1.7 million when he found a dead rat in his sandwich. McDonald\u2019s have responded to the cigarette-butt incident, stating \u201cFood safety is of the utmost importance to us, and we place great emphasis on quality control and providing the highest standard to our customers of our Barrow-in-Furness restaurant.\u201d \u201cWe would encourage the customer to contact customer services so that we can properly investigate and help them find a resolution.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
