(ridiculous cross-postings snipped)

Exactly. The idiots have no right to tamper with food under any
circumstances. Doesn't matter if they thought they were being cute or
whatever other reason they may have had. But I think the employees should
be the ones sued. Unless their manager was complicit in their actions, BK
itself really isn't at fault. (Of course, minimum wage BK employees don't
have any money to cough up.)
