Waiter! There's a Finger Redux

Seems Wendy's might not have had their fingers in the chili after all. The likely explanation is far more disturbing. Imus implied a dead aunt...eewwww!

Would this be like pointing the finger of shame at the live niece?

I heard news teasers about this all last evening while watching my sainted Dodgers beating the crap out of the evil SF satan spawn.

I'll have to listen to the rerun later for the exact wording, but Ossifer Vic on KSFO had a great line about this woman being bulimic and part of her job was already done by the chili.

I had wondered about this. If one were to lose a bit of oneself in, say, the meat grinder or pepper chopper, one's bit would be bitty indeed by the time it reached the restaurant. So how does a sizable and recognizable segment of finger make its way all the way to the finished product? And then, how does a server fail to notice this in the warmer or in the ladle as the chili is being portioned and served? The 99-cent serving isn't all that big.

Nights ~ it's the little extras that make the meal, bwwaaahhh. Major Dad has had one eyebrow raised about this one since the beginning, too, which has since morphed into a smug 'told you so'.

As you will be also, when you're ready to give up your sing-songy 'nyah nyahnyah nyahnyah nyah'. It will happen, Grasshopper.
