• Have it your way! Tiffany Floyd of Gettzville, New York, stopped at her local Burger King to get her 4-year-old daughter a hamburger, People reported.
When the girl started eating her burger, she said, "Mom, I don't want ketchup."
Floyd took the bag back, thinking the order had been made wrong, "And I look in her bag and there is blood all over. You could tell it was human blood."
She called the restaurant and asked to speak with a manager, who admitted, "Yes, I had a worker here cut their hand right before your food was made and bagged. The worker knew he cut himself but did not think he was bleeding that bad."
The manager offered Floyd a refund, but instead she hung up and called the local health department. Burger King closed the restaurant for retraining and deep cleaning, but Floyd said their trauma continues: "She now needs to get bloodwork done every month" to look for HIV and hepatitis, among other infections, and her daughter is afraid to eat.
"She thinks there's blood in it." [People, 7/31/2024]
