TikToker @tonya_michelle2022 uploaded a series of three videos on TikTok which documents their family's ordeal dealing with McDonald's after making a shocking find. The Happy Meal she purchased for her daughter contained a fully intact vape along with chicken nuggets.
A vape is a device used for inhaling nicotine through vapours produced by the machine. It is used as a popular alternative to cigarettes. This is definitely not something any child of any age should have access to, not to mention, the presence of this tool in the food indicates serious health and food safety violation.
