Man finds cleaning fluid in McDonald's Tea
This was definitely going to be a big deal. McDonald's have found themselves on the wrong side of the media as customer discovers tea bought from the fast food contained
Before going on shift on Saturday night at about 10pm, Reserve Officer Paul Watkins stopped at an Indianapolis McDonald's for a self-serve tea.
As usual he filled his cup half with unsweetened tea, but before filling the rest with sweet tea he noticed the tea looked dark.
He took the lid off the dispenser but decided that all seemed OK.
'He filled his cup and took a big gulp and immediately his throat started burning down into his chest,' his wife Jerilyn told ABC News
Officer Watkins then became violently ill.
He called the police station and poison control, who determined that the tea dispenser was filled with a heavy duty degreasing chemical, according to the police report.
Watkins spent the night at IU Health Methodist Hospital and underwent an endoscopy the next day.
He still has problems swallowing, experiences a burning sensation in his throat, and is concerned about the long-term effects of having ingested chemicals.
