Mom Claims Son Got Bloody Sundae At McDonalds - Suing
<snip>

GEORGETOWN, Del. -- Was it blood or strawberry syrup?

Carmen Jara of Georgetown is suing a McDonald's franchise, claiming her then-13-year-old son was served a hot fudge sundae contaminated with human blood. She said her son got sick and was afraid he'd contracted a deadly disease.

A judge has granted a request for a hearing delay by lawyers for the franchise operator, AJM Enterprise.

No date for a new hearing has been set. But Jara's attorney expects the case to go to trial.

Jara claims an employee at the McDonald's cut his finger and the blood dripped into her son's treat they bought 13-months ago. She said a manager at the store confirmed that the substance in the sundae was blood.

The owner of the McDonald's denies the charges. He said strawberry syrup probably just clogged the sundae machine.

4. I'll call bullshit right now.
Hey lady, maybe you didn't hear about that incident with the chili-finger from Wendy's eh?

Sorry Carmen, I think you're full of crap.

9. I so totally do not get that last line
What does strawberry syrup clogging the machine have to do with blood? Does he mean that what looked like blood was probably just the pure syrup?

Or is the writer of the article just an idiot?

:shrug:
