Human Finger Found in Fast Food Chili
Map of 1405 Monterey Road San Jose Anna Ayala, 39, who ordered chili at a Wendy's found a cooked human finger complete with a long fingernail in her bowl
The diner claimed she spit out the well- cooked digit, notified restaurant workers and became sick to her stomach. Police went to Wendy's and dispatched health inspectors to the restaurant. The company checked out all the employees who worked at the San Jose restaurant two days ago. A Las Vegas couple later admitted planting a severed finger in a bowl of chili
