Ryan Hart, a 14-year-old boy from Michigan, had a rude surprise when
he bit into his Arby's roast beef sandwich. "I was like, 'that's got to
be a finger,'" he told the Jackson Citizen Patriot. "It was just nasty."

Reportedly, a restaurant employee cut off her finger with a meat slicer
while preparing the meal. She left her station to deal with the
emergency, and other employees, who were unaware of the injury,
continued to complete the order.
"Somebody loses a finger and you keep sending food out the window,"
said the teen's mom, Jamie Vail. "I can't believe that." She added that
following the gruesome discovery, her son was "traumatized," couldn't
eat or sleep, and had been prescribed medication Fox News reports.

John Gray, Arby's vice president of corporate communications, provided
Yahoo! Shine with a statement saying, "Arby’s wants to reassure
customers that we are committed to providing quality food in a safe and
healthy environment. We are deeply concerned and apologetic to the guest
involved in this unfortunate incident....An isolated and unfortunate
accident occurred in a franchisee’s Jackson, Michigan restaurant in
which an employee was injured. Upon learning of the incident, the
franchisee’s restaurant team shut down food production and thoroughly
cleaned and sanitized the restaurant. The franchisee fully cooperated
with the Health Department during the investigation, and the restaurant
was given the approval to remain open."
This is not the first time human remains have been found in a fast food meal but this case might be the most extreme.
- A Dayton Ohio man sued Arby's in 2005 for reportedly serving him a chicken sandwich topped with a piece of human skin.
- In a famous 2005 hoax, a Las Vegas woman found a human finger in Wendy's chili but police later discovered she had cooked her husband's colleague's finger (which he had lost in a work accident) and slipped it into the bowl herself.
- An Albany-area man allegedly found a bloody bandage in the crust of his Pizza Hut pie in 2011.
- Also in 2011, Texan woman found blood on her French fries while eating at a Houston-area Crackle Barrel.
