McDonald’s is being sued over a hot coffee spill, again.

This time, a San Francisco location is being accused of serving a “scalding” cup of coffee with an improperly attached lid, which allegedly resulted in the coffee pouring out on plaintiff Mable Childress’ body and causing “severe burns” after she tried drinking it.

The lawsuit, filed last week, alleged that the elderly woman is suffering from “physical pains, emotional distress and other damages.” The restaurant’s negligence was a “substantial factor” for her injuries, it alleged.

Childress also said in the lawsuit that the restaurant employees “refused” to help her, a point that the McDonald’s denied.

    McDonald’s should be considered guilty unless proven innocent given their track record. Nail em to the wall lady!

      They were guilty of making coffee to hot years ago. I have no idea how they were sued for 800k off of selling removeden tenders that were still hot.

      Edit: Is the term chicken actually sensored? Appears it shows now, strange

        The “en” isn’t censored but the first part is, I thought maybe you’d misspelled “fucking” to “fucken” and it censored that. Maybe just chick is somehow censored? Testing testing c h I c k chick chicken …

        Edit: no, and now I just sound like a very hungry madman.

          It’s probably the “chicken tenders”, for some reason “chickentend” is censored.

          Or maybe he had a missclick, and it became a swear word lol.
