McDonald's customer was 'mortified' when they served this in her burger

Britney Johnson just wanted to have a good time with her two daughters, but her meal at McDonald's took an unexpected turn. As she was unpacking her order, the mother of two noticed a small detail just before she bit into her burger.

A juicy discovery

According to Mirror, the incident took place on 20 December 2021 in a McDonald's restaurant in Stoke-on-Trent, south of Manchester. Britney Johnson (22) accompanied by her two daughters, placed her order at the drive-through. Once parked, as she was about to start her burger, she felt that something was wrong:

I was cutting my burger into small pieces because I thought there was a crumb in my box.

She was unpleasantly surprised to find that there was something in her wrapper, and it was a small living thing.

A tiny snail

Indeed, the little spherical thing that Britney Johnson dislodged was nothing like a crumb. She told the media.

I picked it up, and I realised it was harder than I expected. I took a closer look at it and saw a shell

It was actually a snail. And no, snails are not a secret ingredient in Mcdonald's burgers!

Luckily, it was on my menu and I noticed it. But imagine if it had been on my little girl's menu? Imagine if I'd given that to my 11-month-old baby.

Still, a little disgusted, Johnson added that the restaurant gave her a full refund and that the cashier apologised when she went to the counter.
