SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - Health officials in California say a
woman who was eating a bowl of Wendy's chili bit into an unwelcome
ingredient -- a piece of a human finger.
They say the fingertip was about an inch and a-half long, and
contained part of a manicured nail.
A county health official in San Jose says the woman immediately
spit it out -- and became sick.
Investigators have seized all of the ingredients at the
restaurant, and they're trying to trace them back to the
manufacturer.
They think the finger got into the chili at an earlier stage.
They also say it was cooked at a high-enough temperature to ****
any viruses.
Wendy's says it's cooperating in the investigation.
