webfact Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 McDonald's faces 'cockroach burger' claim in New ZealandAgence France-PresseWELLINGTONWELLINGTON:-- Fast food giant McDonald's said Monday it was aware of a New Zealand woman's allegation she found a half-eaten cockroach in a hamburger bought at one of its South Island restaurants.Annah Sophia Stevenson told Fairfax New Zealand that she bought a Big Mac meal on Saturday night then found the cockroach when she was back at home and part-way through eating the burger ."The guts were hanging out and it had a big hole in the middle of it," the 26-year-old make-up artist said."I was trying to squeeze my teeth through it. I was chewing on that thing for a while. I thought it was a bit of gristly meat."Stevenson did not complain to the restaurant, instead posting pictures on Facebook and saying she felt "violated, ill, traumatised and disgusted".McDonald’s said that its franchisee in the town of Blenheim contacted Stevenson as soon as it became aware of the allegations on social media.It said the franchise collected "the burger and foreign object" so they could be sent for independent testing.However, McDonald’s said Stevenson requested the burger’s return on Monday, which "severely limits our ability to further investigate the matter".It said council health inspectors visited the restaurant on Monday and found no evidence of pests."It’s important to note that the products were ordered via drive-thru, transported by car and then consumed at the customer’s home," McDonald’s said in a statement to AFP.Source: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/breakingnews/McDonalds-faces-cockroach-burger-claim-in-New-Zeal-30258332.html-- The Nation 2015-04-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannork Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 She's halfway there already eating junk food, eating a ' half eaten' cockroach presumably means someone couldn't finish it off before her. She 's a make-up artist, perhaps of various mediums, whatever, does cockroach eating improve the complexion? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeaconJohn Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I have no idea what the legal system is like in New Zealand, but if this incident happened in the USA, McDonalds would soon be contacted by the law firm of Ketchum & Cheatum and presented with a list of physical and psychological hurts suffered by this lady, and a request for monetary renumeration.

pedro01 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 "Guts hanging out" of a cockroach? I don't buy these stories at all - there's no proof. Plus - really - how is a roach gonna get into the middle of a burger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinneil Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 She thought it was a bit of grisly beef !!Bulls..t !! This lady was just looking at $ signs, and her fifteen minutes of fame. She did not contact the restaurant, she did not contact the health department. Only social media. That fact alone tells you it is a con. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timsims Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 under new zealand law all she will get is a sorry and a free replacement burger no money to be made in this country but the health department will check it out and if she's not telling the truth she will be charged and maybe jailed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meltingpot2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) I thought it was a bit of gristly meat." More like "Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside" . Could have been an Armadillo. However, McDonalds said Stevenson requested the burgers return on Monday Burger's return, That sounds like a film (Return of the Jedi) or a Rap (RnB) Song (Return of the Mac) Edited April 21, 2015 by meltingpot2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawker9000 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 They should have just made the topic, "Post Your McDonald's/Fast Food Hang Ups" here ... Those with the fetish agenda hardly need cockroach stories for an excuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meltingpot2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) She should have reported it to the council straightaway.When did the council health inspectors find out?..Saturday, Sunday or Monday?. Can they do inspections on Saturday or Sunday at the Burger cockroach joint. Edited April 21, 2015 by meltingpot2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benmart Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Claims of this sort are common when big money is involved. Their may an expectation of an out-of-court settlement on the part of this woman. Large corporations are very well equipped to deal with claims, be they honest or fraudulent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bwanatickey Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 New Zealand's Mac Donald's ar the best in the world, they serve a Lamb burger, while the Australian Mc Donald's serves a Big Mac with beetroot. That ain't no cockroach, it's a Mc Donald's toy for the visually impaired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
