Dining at the Waldorf?

Just saw a feature on Eyewitness News about a German tourist who found a used tampon in his spinach while dining at the Waldorf. The guy was rushed to a hospital immediately.

This really sickened me because I had lunch at the Waldorf about a month ago. What could possibly have been in my meal?

I posted it because it's serious stuff. The German guy has already been tested for hepatitus and has been advised to be tested for AIDS in 2 months. What a way to spend a vacation in NYC!

I saw the article on line they had a picture of it. He had it in a nifty little aluminum vial, convenient, no?

This whole story is too sickening to even try being funny about.

Who is trying to be funny? I am dubious that it isn't a scam by the German Tourist.

edited to add: The article on Eyewitness News website said it was in his steak.

By someone pulling a scam.

It happens when some tourist just happens to be carrying around a used tampon just waiting for the proper moment to discover it.

ewww.

Exactly, specially when ]he has it in a nifty little screw top aluminum vial eta: Can you say:"All expense paid free vacation to NYC on the Waldorf's dime?"

He had it in his mouth and tried to chew it?! Am I hearing this correctly?! That...is disgusting beyond belief...

...but at least they can test it and find out who's it is!

[Jane2]

Posted: 7/14/09 at 7:45pm

Yeah, because if it isn't his, then he stole it!

[SNAFU]

I will bet anything it is a German made tampon!

When did you ever let anything stop you before?

I'm getting ready to leave for a tech...

It's just too easy, and too much.

[Jane2]

Posted: 7/14/09 at 8:34pm

Ok, I'll excuse you this time hon. Have a good tech (ugh if there's such a thing). How bout "have a short tech?"

[TheatreDiva90016]

Well, considering the one on Saturday was cut early, the one Sunday was cancelled, and we were just informed the lead was fired...

It's should be a strange night.

Five bucks says he's making it up.

This is so gross, regardless of it being made up or not. Seriously, if you are going to pull a fast one like this, at least make it more believable.

Yeah whatever happened to the old "waiter there's a fly in my soup" gimmick?
