Custard Finger
Woo hoo! After a short dry spell, I have more news of people in food - another fingertip, but this time it's the real deal.
Clarence Stowers of Wilmington, NC picked up some frozen custard to-go from Kohl's Frozen Custard, and when he got home, he noticed what he "thought it was candy because they put candy in your ice cream ... to make it a treat. So I said, 'OK, well, I'll just put it in my mouth and get the ice cream off of it and see what it is.'"
That didn't work. Still not sure what the "treat" in his custard was, he took it to his kitchen to rinse it off and, upon realizing it was indeed a human finger, "just started screaming."
There is no question as to where the finger came from. Earlier that day, an employee had lost it in an accident. Several other workers tried to help the injured employee, but one who had not been told of the incident scooped some custard where the finger had landed into a pint container, which was then sold to Mr. Stowers.
