All I'm saying is... "Yuck!"

SHINE.YAHOO.COM reports:
Ever feel like nothing is secret any more because of the Internet? You may be right. It took 4Chan users only 15 minutes to track down and bust the Cleveland-area Burger King employee who stood on top of two containers of shredded lettuce and then posted a picture of the gross act. 4Chan is a bulletin board-type website where members post images and comments.

    Every restaurant (fast food or expensive linen cloth) has the capacity for hiring idiots who do stupid things to our food.

    Though I would say unclean rather then unsafe in the context of this poll.

    I have worked at mc'donalds in the past and seen them run out of hotcake mix, grab yesterday's excess hotcakes from the trash and reheat them to get through the last 5 minute breakfast rush rather then make up a whole new batch.

    You would be surprised what the stomach can handle.

    Raw/bad meat, or toxic cleaning products result fit more into the 'unsafe' category. And what I remember of the cleaning products were they were non-toxic and the meat, well you can see if its raw yourself when you eat it.

    Bad meat is probably the biggest risk. If you do get food poisoning and can isolate it enough to be sure, report the store immediately.

    But, you'll probably die of a heart attack from all the saturate fat in your fast-food burgers before you die of dirty lettuce.

    As someone else said, "Everything is unsafe," but this kind of thing can happen at any restaurant - or any company in the agricultural or foodservice industry - with imperfect hiring managers.



    I worked at McDonald's for years as a teenager, and we had our fair share of characters, but never once did I see or hear of anyone doing ANYTHING bad to the food. On the other hand, I've heard of people doing some pretty nasty things at a certain family restaurant, which evoked mental images of the movie "Waiting"...it depends a lot on the management and the culture management creates and allows.

    Browsing 4chan today I saw one of the idiots that got fired complaining that his fellow anons ratted him out. Serves the douche bag right.
    Any food place could be unsafe. That doesn't mean that the local ones are for sure though.

    EVERYTHING is unsafe. If you want to be absolutely safe, it ain't gonna happen. The idiot who walks on food should be fired, but we can't very well decide that because a few illegal aliens piss on the salad as they're harvesting it, no one should ever eat lettuce again.
    All you can do is control as much of your own food supply as possible. A pity common sense is so uncommon these days.

    when you see things like this, you wonder what else is going on that no one catches? I rarely eat fast food anymore and this does not help. Yuk!!! People like this are sick and they deserve to get very sick themselves to maybe help them understand what they are doing to others. It is not funny!

    when you're a traveler like me, you learn to appreciate whatever hot food you can get your hands on real quick. i mean, it's just food when you're hungry, any roadside choke-n-puke will do, right?
    in all honesty though, i hate fast food. it never tastes fresh, you don't know who handled your food or what you're eating half the time.
    this is why i stick to sandwich shops when i can.

    Fast food is as bad as smoking a cigarette. Slowly destroying your health.

    But that's not going to stop anyone, so...each to his/her own.
