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.
The main factor in the accident was the woman’s age. How was that McDonalds fault and how did they spin public opinion? Unless she asked for ice chips in her cup and they denied it, I don’t see how they could have done anything different. The ideal brewing temperature for coffee is 205F. The ideal hot hold temp is 195F. That’s hot. If you’re too old and frail for coffee that hot, it’s on you to ask to be accommodated.
Shut your idiot mouth. Quit spreading lies
Cut and Paste the lie.
