McDonald's find left child vomiting
The little girl, aged 8 visited the McDonald's restaurant in Kirkintilloch, near Glasgow, with her mother. Her mum describes their visit saying,
It was a treat day for my daughter - she had earned a reward and chose McDonald’s.
The mother brought the child a Happy Meal, and as she bit into her food, she found an object that looked like a 'human tooth' and was 'hard and white like.' The little girl literally vomited when she saw what she bit into was. The mum continues saying,
My daughter noticed a hard bit in her mouth and spat it out. She was physically sick. It looked like a human tooth and I thought it was, as it was hard and white like one.
It discoloured to yellow, so then I thought it was maybe a bit of bone but it looked like a tooth and so that’s what I thought at first.
She actually vomited when she saw what she’d had in her mouth.

What McDonald's has to say about the case
The mother states that McDonald's offered to replace the meal, but the family has been put off from its food after the incident. She says,
My daughter hasn't eaten chicken nuggets from McDonald’s since, nor any that look like McDonald’s.
Mirror quotes a statement by a McDonald's spokesperson as follows,
Food safety is of the utmost importance to McDonald’s and we place great emphasis on quality control to avoid imperfections in our products.
However, in this instance, we have no record of the customer complaint and without the alleged foreign object, we cannot conduct a proper investigation.
"We understand the customer is now in contact with our customer services team to find a resolution.
