“I look in her bag and there is blood all over her bag, her toys, her fries, everything,” says New York resident Tiffany Floyd.

Burger King near Buffalo, New York temporarily closed over the weekend after a customer found blood in her daughter’s food.

On July 26, New York resident Tiffany Floyd posted a TikTok video about a distressing experience with her four-year-old daughter Matayla at a Burger King in Getzville, New York.

“I heard, ‘Mom, I don’t want ketchup,’ so I take the bag back thinking that they messed up our order,” she continues, before using her rubber-gloved hand to show her daughter’s burger to the camera. “I look in her bag and there is blood all over her bag, her toys, her fries, everything.”

Floyd says she then pulled over and called Burger King to ask what was going on with her food, and the manager told her that a worker injured his finger right before making and bagging their order, and that if she came back, she could get a refund.

So, she decided to call her local health department and file a report.

    Sounds like working conditions are “less than ideal” at burger king.

    And I’d bet that manager that offered a refund is only one link in the exploitative chain that directly led to this situation.

      Besides for the gay hating chicken place, every fast food and drug store I go into is running a skeleton crew these days.

      It’s always some teenager and a middle aged manager stressed tf out like it’s their fault the lines out the door

      It’s hard to highlight the problem because you don’t want to be recording these poor people. At the same time I think that works in favor of places like Walgreens because then you’re just hiding their trash for them
