“this is NOT what i meant by ‘rare’”

people always like to put nasty things in food to score free meals or, in more extreme situations, win lawsuits. But sometimes, just sometimes, restaurant employees are actually SO bitter about their jobs or shitty customers that they’ll go to serious extremes to show their displeasure.

so when german tourist Axel Sanz-Claus claimed that the delicious steak he was eating at the Waldorf Astoria came with an unrequested side of bloody tampon, it seemed like everyone was torn between being completely grossed out and calling bullshit on the whole story.

apparently Sanz-Claus was enjoying his big, bloody steak when he bit into something that didn’t taste quite right. upon further inspection, he realized it was a big nasty tamp, washed his mouth out with brandy, then ran to the bathroom to puke. New York Presbyterian Hospital later confirmed that it actually was a tampon in his meal, which is totally off the wall fuckin nast, and he got tested for the Hep and has to go back in a couple months to get tested for AIDS.

now the question is, did he plan the whole thing to make bank from such a reputable hotel, or is someone in the Bull and Bear Steak House kitchen REALLY pissed about their state of affairs? The world may never know.
