Man sues after finding condom in his soup

Remember the tampon infused steak from last week?

This week, a dude in California is claiming he found a used condom melted into the cheese of his French Onion soup at an Easter brunch in April. Why can’t it ever be like a bobby pin or a watch gear or something that hasn’t been in or on someone’s cash and prizes? This time, the man was dining with his wife and daughter and thought he’d ingested a hardened piece of cheese (Ew. Ew, ew ew.) and tried to fish it out of his mouth and oh my God it’s a condom on Jesus’ other birthday what the hell is wrong with people?

Suspiciously, though, the dude refused to allow the restaurant to inspect the used condom, saving it for legal-licious purposes later. Preliminary tests revealed female DNA on the condom and female employees voluntarily submitted to testing to exclude themselves from suspicion of adulterating the soup. In a statement, the restaurant dismissed the claims as baseless and basically called bullshit on the whole incident:

We have found no evidence to support any of the allegations in a complaint filed by Mr. Zednek Philip Hodousek against Claim Jumper on July 21, 2009.

When Mr. Hodousek said he found a foreign object in his food on April 12, 2009, he took it with him when he left the restaurant. We take customer complaints very seriously and immediately began an investigation.

We interviewed our employees at the restaurant and found no evidence of wrongdoing. Due to the seriousness of Mr. Hodousek’s allegation, we then retained an independent investigator. The investigator completed his investigation on April 23, 2009. The investigator also concluded that there was no wrongdoing by any employee.

In an effort to complete our investigation, we contacted Mr. Hodousek and his attorney numerous times over the next six weeks to request that the object be sent to an independent laboratory for testing.

Seven weeks later, on June 1, 2009, the object was finally forwarded to an independent lab. Because Mr. Hodousek took the object with him on April 12, we could not establish that this was the same object the lab received.

In addition, Mr. Hodousek asked us to conduct DNA testing of female employees at the restaurant to determine if there could be a match to any DNA that might be found on the object.

While we are mindful of our employees’ privacy rights, we asked our female employees to voluntarily comply with Mr. Hodousek’s request and they have done so.

To ensure a thorough assessment, we asked Mr. Hodousek to take a DNA test. Mr. Hodousek failed to appear for his appointment on July 20, 2009. Mr. Hodousek’s attorney filed the lawsuit against us on July 21.

We thoroughly investigated Mr. Hodousek’s claim. We do not believe Mr. Hodousek’s lawsuit has any merit and will fight this allegation.
