Quote: ALEXANDRIA, Va. ù A Florida man has settled his $2 million lawsuit against a McDonald's restaurant in southwest Virginia that allegedly served him a chicken sandwich that exploded with hot grease. Terms of the settlement entered Friday in Alexandria were not disclosed.
The long-running case began in 2005 when carnival operator Frank Sutton of Brooksville, Fla., ordered a fried chicken sandwich at a McDonald's in the Daniel Boone truck stop in Duffield, Va. He said he suffered burns to his mouth and lips when it spewed scalding grease after he bit into it.
A judge dismissed the lawsuit in 2008, saying that Sutton should have tested the temperature of his sandwich before ate it. But a federal appeals court disagreed and sent the case back for a second trial. That trial had been scheduled to start next week.
Do you know how many times I've burned the roof of my mouth on hot pizza?

Isn't this kind of ******ed lawsuit why coffee now has "caution, contents hot" stamped on the lid (or printed on the cup) now?
Seriously... If I buy hot food, I expect it to be hot... I'd be more likely to complain if it wasn't hot enough  ===================================== It smells of spoon! ===================================== |

If some deepfry oil got trapped under the surface, it probably did some serious damage to him. I melted part of my arm just getting splashed with oil from dropping a pork chop into a pan accidentally. Took a month to heal, was really, really bad...just imagine what would happen if it was shot up into your mouth :P

^ this.
Seriously, it's a miracle we don't have stickers on our microwaves stating "DO NOT put in LIVE ANIMALS, use only for food preparation" after that fiasco with that woman and her cat.
IT'S A ****ING MICROWAVE, WHO THE **** PUTS LIVE ANIMALS INTO A BOX THAT HEATS YOUR FOOD UP BY VIBRATING THE WATER MOLECULES IN YOUR FOOD THROUGH ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES?
I can half understand it working for an oven, but to be honest even that is severely ****ed up.

My first thought was this one time at a pizza place I ended up with 2nd+ dgree burns on the roof of my mouth. It was painfull to swallow water for the next three days.

Uh... I burn the roof of my mouth EVERY TIME I eat any pizza with salami/pepperoni, less so with cheese.
Seriously people need to harden the **** up. Having a sore mouth is a small price to pay for some sweet italian goodness.. That said though, a lowsy mcrancid_processed_grinded_chicken wouldn't be worth ****ing your mouth up over it so I guess I can sort of relate with the poor guy.
Me and some of my (dutch) friends have come up with a very fitting name for the McTasty that we believe closer represents the overall quality and feel of the product: De McBaftig. (loosely translates to Mcbuggerish, only more rancid) Also, Big Mac is Big Baftig

I've heard that this has been addressed in the operating manual of some brands?

Quote: "DO NOT put in LIVE ANIMALS, use only for food preparation"
This one time when I was experimenting with my cat and the microwave, I was testing how long I could cook the cat before it actually meowed/complained... i had gotten to like 5 seconds but then i put the cat in and the doorbell rang and i had to go look out the window to see who it was but i tripped and didn't get back to the cat until about 1 min later.the cat came out and was limping and squirming and blood was coming from its ears and eyes.i felt bad and thought i should put it out of its misery so i pushed it on the floor and put some boots on and starting stomping on its head with the heal. it was screaming and freaking out like crazy so i had to do one hard stomp and finally it died. i buried it in the backyard and told my mom it just went outside and never came back. i still feel bad about that.
