11 Gross Items Found In McDonald’s Food That Will Make You Sick

We already ate and loved our helping of Mcy D’s today, so we decided to post this after lunch. This has been a bad week for McDonald’s restaurants in Japan. That’s because after costumers found pieces of vinyl in Chicken McNuggets from two different locations, news reports started piling on of previous McHorror Stories. Vinyl McNuggets?   Whatever; everyone knows you only eat Hipster Japanese McNuggets on vinyl.

1. Vinyl Chicken McNuggets

McCustomers in Tokyo and Aomori got more than some nitrates when they ate an order of McNuggets; they got pieces of blue and white vinyl. Record scratch!  Both of the contaminated nuggs came from the same factory in Thailand. At least they are referring to it as “chicken.”

2. A Human Tooth

As if adding “human” to the word “tooth” makes it more horrifying, reports in Japan this week stated that a HUMAN tooth had been found in an order of French fries in August 2014. The restaurant reported that none of the staff at the location had lost any teeth.  Maybe Ronald McDonald is trying meth and losing his teeth?

3. A Piece Of Plastic

If you thought McDonald’s food tasted like plastic well than you aren’t going to want to try the ice cream sundae’s in Japan. That’s because a chunk of plastic fell off the machine and into the soft serve which got served to a 5 year old kid, injuring his mouth. Well that’s one way to get kids to eat healthier; early childhood trauma at a McDonalds.

4. A Metal Clasp

Nothing is better than an Egg McMuffin, some coffee and orange juice for a good old McyD’s breakfast. That’s why the most horrifying thing about this story is that someone at a Kyoto McDonald’s ordered the pancakes.  That and that they found a metal clasp cooked right into it. A little syrup and it might go down good with the sausage!

5. Uncooked Meat

I like my burger cooked medium- rare sometimes when I go to a fancy pants steak house and order the burger like the slob I am. That’s because I know they put cow’s meat in that there burger. However, when ordering off the pink slime menu it’s best to have that alien substance cooked well done.  This customer’s undercooked meat got thousands of retweets  You know what they call a quarter pounder with cheese in Japan?  Raw pink slime with cheese.

6. Dentistry Fillings Metal

In Kagoshima last month a McDonalds served a batch of fries with dentistry fillings metal. Maybe this is the new Happy Meal toy that will help customers who ate a metal clasp or a piece of plastic at one of their locations.

7. A Beetle

No it wasn’t Ringo; an actual beetle was found cooked inside a hamburger in a Chiba, Japan location. Crunchy! As you can imagine not everyone is thrilled with the added ingredients to these fast food favorites. Employees of the beloved burger joint have even taken to calling McDonald’s Japan CEO Sarah Casanova as “angel of death” due to all of the bad publicity. Well, no one has died yet, so don’t oversell this guys! Japanese McDonald’s executives even held a press conference to apologize for all of the incidents.

 

 “Shame and dishonor” is normally what you feel after you eatMcDonald’s so welcome to the club!

8.  A Cockroach Found Stuck On Bottom Of McDonald’s Hash Brown

This would go nicely next to the metal clasp in the pancakes in Japan; a cockroach was found stuck to the bottom of a hash brown. I guess going into some McDonald’s is more Fear Factor than Diners, Drive-In’s and Dives.

9. A Nose Ring

A nose ring was found cooked inside an McDonald’s breakfast burrito in Atlanta, Georgia. I’m starting to think that McEmployees are tired when they get to work in the morning as a lot of these gross items are found in breakfast food.

10. A Rat

This past October we told you about a man in Fredericton, Canada who ordered a cup of coffee from his local McDonald’s only to get a not so happy treat at the bottom of his cup. He drank the entire cup of joe and when he opened the lid he discovered a dead rat in the bottom. Well at least he didn’t spill any on his crotch.

11. Chicken Head

 

Back in the year 2000, a woman in Virginia bought chicken wings from McDonalds. If you recall they tried serving chicken wings for a while and this might be the reason they stopped. She found a fully formed, battered and fried chicken head in the box.

What is the grossest thing you have ever discovered in your food?

Chick-fil-a superfans camp out in -10F to win a year’s worth of free chicken

Hundreds of Chick-fil-a superfans camp out in -10F polar plunge as they face off to win a year’s worth of free chicken

  • Hundreds of lovers of the fast food chain suffered through wicked chills at new store openings in Kansas, Virginia and South Carolina
  • The company traditionally gives a year’s worth of free food to the first 100 customers at each store opening
  • Tent cities appeared in parking lots at the three stores as early as Wednesday morning as this week’s nationwide cold snap got even uglier  

Hundreds of die-hard chicken sandwich fans swarmed Chick-fil-a locations in three states Wednesday, where they set up parking lot tent cities in bone-chilling bids to win a year’s worth of free food.

The campers hoping to be among the first 100 customers at new stores in Kansas, Virginia and South Carolina lined up just as the current polar plunge brought the weeks lowest temperatures yet this season across much of America.

Because the stores weren’t slated to open until 6am Thursday, the campers braved the frigid night as temperatures plunged to as low as -10F for some.

Campers at the Derby, Kansas opening faced those lowest of lows and, perhaps unsurprisingly, only around 50 people had set up their tents and portable heaters in the lot as the sun set Wednesday.

As such, 50 more lucky breakfast customers would be rewarded with a coveted gift card loaded with some $32,000 worth of free food, reports MyFoxDC.

Campers at the Northern Virginia location were slightly more fortunate than their Kansan comrades, but not by much.

Hundreds packed the lot in Dumfries Wednesday as overnight lows plummeted to near zero and relentless wind chills made the temperature feel like 10 below.

Welcome! The Dumfries, Virginia chain opened with a raucous welcome from employees for the lucky first customers

The campers’ got what they came for as doors opened early Thursday and they were treated to a raucous welcome from store staff–one dressed as the chain’s cow mascot–in addition to the massive gift cards.

The most fortunate of the lot spent their nights waiting for a Powdersville, South Carolina store to open.

While the most southerly of the day’s openings, the Palmetto State’s came during a stretch of uncharacteristically low temperatures.

‘My husband said I’m nuts,’ South carolina camper Joy Boudreau told WLOS on Wednesday evening. ‘He packed me two sleeping bags, an air mattress, a bed roll and I think he’s bringing by another blanket. He thinks I’m crazy, he’s staying home nice and warm.’

In Kansas, only around 50 had lined up by Wednesday evening, meaning  50 more lucky breakfast customers would be rewarded with a coveted gift card loaded with some $32,000 worth of free food

Why has Tesco shampoo turned my dog pink?

Twitter user @Adamstone341 winds up Tesco by claiming their shampoo turned his dog pink

Twitter user @Adamstone341 winds up Tesco by claiming their shampoo turned his dog pink

A dog owner left the world of Twitter tickled pink when he played a colourful prank on Tesco.

The man, known only as Adam, sent the supermarket giant a tweet saying he had a complaint about one of their products.

And he followed it up with a picture of his Labrador, its fur a garish shade of pink.

Hi @Tesco I’ve got a serious problem with one of your products I’ve recently purchased.

— Adam (@Adamstone341) January 5, 2015

That was accompanied by a shot of the store’s own brand Dog Shampoo with Adam asking: “Why on earth has your shampoo turned my dog pink?”

Bosses at the supermarket giant at first seemed confused, asking him to return the product with his receipt to the store he bought it from so they could investigate

However, a spokesman confirmed it was a wind-up and say they had been tickled by the prank which has so far been retweeted 14,000 times.

‘@Tesco Yes why on earth has your shampoo turned my dog pink? pic.twitter.com/VDlUDfdxt4

— Adam (@Adamstone341) January 5, 2015

It was also a hit with fellow twitter users.

One said: “To be fair he looks quite pleased with his new look.”

Another remarked: “It makes me so sad this isn’t real.”

@Adamstone341 That’s most concerning Adam, if you can return the product to store with your receipt we’ll investigate. Thanks, Dan.

— Tesco (@Tesco) January 5, 2015

A Tesco spokesman said: “This is certainly is a hair raising hoax.

“Tesco pet care sensitive dog shampoo is a great product and we can guarantee it’ll leave your pooch looking pretty but definitely not in pink.”

The store’s own Twitter accounts are well known for their own horseplay on the social networking site.

In October 2012 they had a well publicised ‘tweet-off’ with the phone company O2.

And last March they trolled the beleaguered Manchester United manager at the time, David Moyes, saying he “wouldn’t fit in” at the company as they were “award winners.”
