A six-year-old girl nearly choked to death on a blue surgical face mask that was baked into her chicken nuggets, a mother says.
Laura Arber, 32, bought a Happy Meal from McDonald's in Aldershot, Hampshire, on Tuesday.
She said her daughter started making choking noises as she tucked into her clogs five minutes away at home. Ms Arber said: “I had to put my finger in her mouth to make her sick and it came out with blue spots.”
McDonald's has apologized, saying food safety is of "the utmost importance to us" and that the company places great emphasis on quality control to "strict standards to prevent imperfections." A spokesperson said: “As soon as we became aware of the issue, we opened a full investigation with the relevant supplier and have taken action to ensure that any product from this batch is removed from restaurants.
