Finger licking good.

[graemer]

I know it's gross but how on earth could a human finger turn up in a bowl of chilli sauce at a Wendy's without anyone noticing it especially the person who's wondering what's different about their hand? Can't wait for this one to be solved!

They may not notice the missing finger til they say goodbye to their boss.....

Puts a whole new meaning to "giving someone the finger"

[Dom Tuk]

The answer is quite simple. Sauces are made in countries like Brazil and India where the incidence of Leprosy is still high. Leprosy patients have lost all sensations in their extremeties. Lepers are cheap labour and due to their illness they will not notice when a finger has fallen off. In fact lepers have been historically used to open lids from bottles which have been hermetically sealed as they do not feel the pain in their fingers. The disease however does not spread from ingestion of any fleshy parts and i will now assuage my guilt by contributing to leprosy research.

Ohhh Dom please say that's not true...

[kaktus]

That is just terrible Dom.

Both for the people discovering bodyparts in their food, and for the poor lepers. I don't know much about leprosy but I recall something about lepers having to do some kind of "body check" to make sure they don't get bruises and wounds because it is so dangerous to them. That is what I call abusive employers!

you can't beat homemade.

[tanyavee]

Even worse if the finger nail is dirty

[Dom Tuk]

No its not true..........i was just trying to be funny.....sorry but it was not really funny.

[undercovers]

don't worry i thought it was funny.

i also wonder where the rest of this person is?

maybe the finger is all that was left as they tried desperately to climb out of the mincing machine they had just be thrown into

[kaktus]

hmmm could be Undercovers, maybe it's the hand from the Adams family that got murdered, that would explain how the finger was able to crawl out of the machine...

[graemer]

Dom!!! phew! What a sad reflection on the business world that it sounded feasible!

[Dom Tuk]

But myth has it that in ancient times Lepers were used to help open rusty locks as their pain sensations were dulled and they could exert much more force than a normal person. Why they did not squirt some oil escapes me.

Actually... it was announced yesterday (Tuesday) that she has withdrawn the law suit... ostensibly because of the angst the whole situation has caused.  However, this announcement was after it was discovered that she regularly files these type of actions and after a thorough search of all the suppliers found no missing digits.  They did question a hitchhiker who was noticeably unsuccesful in obtaining a lift though...No known connection...

[newtron]

That was very funny Dom!
