Used?

a condom vs snot?....

She "allegedly" found a condom?

The article says that, then says they are investigating where it came from.

Hmmm.

1+1 does not equal 2.

@nagumi: reading is good. "The article did not specify whether the condom had been used or not."

Wow, poor Kristy had to go all the way to Switzerland to find a job?

@Cristal Rodriguez: The linked article doesn't actually have the word allegedly. The emphatic quotes around it looks like it was done editorially by the Consumerist.

Switzerland is very progressive abuot this sort of thing.

I hate to bring up the S-word (I didn't actually say it, SteveDave), but this sounds like the dude who called my work one night (when I worked at a supermarket) and said he found a Glade plug-in refill in his cooked BBQ chicken.

The thing is... plastic MELTS.

It's nice that the clown is finally turning his attention to Mr. Happy. It's about time!

Boy, I hope that McDonalds is recycling those things. Because to do otherwise would be environmentally irresponsible.

So much lost potential. Seriously, that's the best headline they could come up with for this story?

Get a room, Swiss McDonald's workers. Or at least a parking lot, like us decent folk.

Cha, it's a Happy ENDING meal.

A Happy Ending meal??

@tc4b:

Good one, I loled.

This is like a 2 day or story.

Was it used?

in other news......

Ah man, a scale model of the Swiss banking system would be AWESOME. I bet it would have neat little movable parts and things.

Any engineers out there want to get on this?

well at least i know where to go and what to order when i'm about to go #@$% and i dont have any on me and feel embarrased to buy them at the store to avoid dirty looks from the overweight female cashiers. I wonder if I "supersize" the happy meal i get a Magnum?

Spermicidal too!

Bogus story

Maybe this is supposed to be the toy! Europe does have a more relaxed view of sex than the US, after all!

That's not mayonaise on your fries, Sven!

@unobservant: Sadly, Youtube removed my clip, so I have to come up with a new one. ;(

food, folks, and family planning

@nagumi:

"They said an analysis was being done to determine if the condom posed a health risk. "

That sounds to me like it was at least unwrapped and most likely completely unrolled as well. Which could be "not used", but is still pretty gross. If it was in the package, yeah, that sucks, but is about on par with any other foreign item in your food.. there wouldn't be any need to freak out about it being a condom in particular.

If it's not used... hey, they're teaching our children to be safe from an early age!

If it was used... all the easier to catch the perpetrator for a public health hazard since, obviously, his DNA will be inside the used condom.

It's been suggested on other sites (yesterday) that it could just have been a finger protector (no that's not an innuendo). A latex protector you roll over your finger to protect you when cutting veggies.

Either that, or it's another "finger in my chilli" deal.

@SpaceBatCowboy_GitEmSteveDave: They removed it? I call shenanigans!

@Jenkinsbball: Sigh.
If only I could last that long...

I for one, am glad that they finally make a condom that will resist 400 degree oil. A great stride forward in safe sex.

You'd think her parents would have bought food sans préservatifs!

@Shadowman615: Quote fail -- I doubt the girl said allegedly.

That's still better than a Kidz Bop CD.

@tmed:

I second this notion, they are light years ahead of us, in many respects.

:0)

@stevgex:

COMEDY...sweet and to the point..NICE PUNCH LINE !

@Corporate_guy:

I HOpe So! That would be the cherry on top...of the ice 'cream'.

Excellent follow-up question.

@Jenkinsbball:

or = old ?

@militarydave:

I found a condom in my bed, but could not remember how it got there.

I guess awkward nites are better than lonely Mornings...

GO figure!
