N.C. Man Finds Finger in Frozen Custard (This one for real)

A man who ordered a pint of frozen chocolate custard in a dessert shop got a nasty surprise inside — a piece of severed finger lost by an employee in an accident.

Unlike a recent incident at a Wendy's restaurant in California, no questions of truth have been raised about the finger served up to go at Kohl's Frozen Custard and found later at home by Clarence Stowers.

Officials from the state departments of agriculture and labor went to the shop Monday, and the owner confirmed one of his employees lost part of a finger in an accident with a food-processing machine. It was not immediately clear how the severed finger got into the custard.

Wilmington television station WWAY reported that Stowers found the finger in frozen custard he purchased Sunday night.

Don't they have rules about throwing out the batch if a body part comes up missing????

I mean, I work in a coffee shop and if you touched your hair you'd have to wash your hands.
I'd think if I chopped off a finger in the slicer, I wouldn't serve the turkey.

Don't leave it at work in a container of custard.

one of the Free Frosties that Wendy's gave away:)

when one of the employees loses a body part. Maybe I'm crazy! :shrug:

in the Wilmington area for my cousin who is moving up from Charleston. I'll have to warn her to go easy on ordering custard.
