Like totally yuck

Woman hands lawsuit to Duchess

Duchess is a CT chain of hamburger joints, mainly, which has pretty decent hot dogs and the like. We eat there once in a while. We've never encounted a rubber glove in the bun or anything like this woman encountered. It's actually one of the cleaner fast food joints around Norwalk - beats McDonalds and the Burger King at cleanliness by at least a mile or two.

"STAMFORD -- A Stamford woman is suing the Duchess Restaurant in Norwalk after allegedly eating a "Big D" hamburger that had a rubber glove in its bun.

"Lila Jerry of 172 Greenwich Ave. filed the lawsuit Sept. 10 in state Superior Court in Stamford seeking more than $15,000 for physical and emotional suffering." ...

"The lawsuit states Jerry became seriously ill and suffered severe physical and emotional pain and suffering.

"She had nausea, headaches, vomiting, severe shock to her nervous system, anxiety, depression, loss of appetite and sleeplessness, her lawsuit states.

"She also reported paying considerable sums for hospital care, X-rays, medicine and medical care."

This woman's reaction to chomping on a rubber glove seems to be a little extreme, though, unless she's allergic to latex.

Stanley sent me this link. I'll remind him about it next time he craves a Big D ...
