Hi!
Bushes Hall Of Famer
PASO ROBLES, Calif. -
A California woman is awaiting blood test results after finding a bloody fingertip in her salad while dining at a Paso Robles Applebee's.
On December 20th Cathleen Martin, her husband and young child were eating at the Applebee's.
Martin says she ordered a Chinese Chicken Salad but found more than just chicken inside.
"So all three of them started eating the salad, ate about half of it, and lifted up a leaf to eat more of the salad, they found the fingertip in blood," says Eric Traut, the Martin family's attorney.
Martin is eight months pregnant and concerned not just for her own health but for the well-being of her unborn child.
A representative from the franchiee that operates the restaurant confirmed the incident in a statement:
"We deeply regret that the Martin family experienced this unacceptable incident at one of our restaurants. We take matters involving the health and safety of our guests and team members seriously. Accordingly, we immediately investigated and determined that an accident did occur in our kitchen. We discussed the matter with the Martins while still at our restaurant, shared our sincere apologies, and have continued to speak with Mrs. Martin in an effort to address her concerns. Additionally, the team member involved volunteered to undergo screening in an effort to provide the peace of mind Mrs. Martin seeks. Further, we are retraining our team members on our safety protocols and will take any necessary actions to prevent anything like this from occurring again."
Three weeks later, Martin is still waiting to hear about the cook's test results
