Woman Claims To Have Found Dead Mouse In Her Restaurant Salad - Uh oh

[matcom]

<snip>

As she worked her way to the bottom of her favorite salad at the Gemini Restaurant in Wheat Ridge, Betty Manion felt something "squishy" with her fork.

Manion does not see well, so she asked her friend, Louise Nation, what it was.

"I thought at first it was a jalapeño pepper - it was that size, and it was green," Nation said. "But it was a full-size dead mouse. Looking back on it, it's a wonder I didn't scream."

Manion says she is frustrated that the restaurant never replied to her letter seeking an apology. John Murchison, the manager of the restaurant at 4300 Wadsworth Blvd., sent her a formal report:

"Customer was eating a Bombay Salad and found a dead mouse in the lettuce mixture. ... No consumption of mouse had occurred, as far as I could see."

Manion and Nation were celebrating Manion's birthday at the 27-year-old restaurant on March 16 when they found the mouse.

Dead chicken in my salad. And what was really gross, was that it was all sliced up, and seasoned.
