🍟 Two employees at a McDonald’s in Southbridge, Massachusetts, were fired immediately after a video showed them licking French fries seconds before handing them to customers.
The clip spread very quickly on social media and rapidly reached the franchise owners and local authorities. The incident occurred at the East Main Street location, and both the Southbridge Police and the area’s Board of Health opened an investigation to determine whether any of those contaminated fries actually ended up in customers’ hands.
What is most unsettling is not just the act itself, but that it was recorded and shared as if it were something without consequences. The next time you order some French fries, you might wonder what happened before they reached your tray. 👀
