Man Says He Found Condom in Burger

BurgerA man who says he bit into a Burger King sandwich and found an unwrapped condom inside has sued the owner of the restaurant.

Van Miguel Hartless, 24, of Fair Haven, said Friday he bought the Southwestern Whopper at a Burger King in Rutland on June 18 and made the discovery when he got home and started eating it.

"My third bite into the burger, it was just a foreign taste," he said. "It was a very sour, bitter sort of taste. It almost had a numbing sensation.

"As I went to bite down a little harder, I felt a rubber grind in between my teeth. I saw it half in my mouth, half hanging out. It was an immediate sick-to-my-stomach type of thing."

Hartless said he has suffered from vomiting, nightmares and emotional distress. He said he also has incurred medical expenses, because he's worried about whether the condom had been used.

Looks like Burger King is wishing him a very merry Christmas.

The work of a disgruntled employee perhaps...

"Vomiting, nightmares and emotional distress...." I think he's overreacting a little bit. Even if it had been used, there are probably no more germs on it than when somebody makes a burger without washing their hands after the restroom. Gross, but not the stuff of nightmares.
