the
Foreign M ailer
Foreign matter in your food,
like a pebble in a pie or a task in
a taco, is clearly good grounds for
complaint. I f you suffer injury,
you are entitled to collect damages
from whoever is to blame.
But the court may have a hard
time deciding, in a particular situa­
tion. what matter is foreign and
what is "natural." Take three
actual cases:

A man bit on a turkey bone in
a dish of roast turkey that he had
ordered in a restaurant.
Another man encountered a
hard grain o f com in a bowl of
oom flakes.
A woman was injured by a
chicken bone in chicken fricassee
In each case a damage claim
was filed by the victim. But each
time, the claim was turned down
because the item in question was
not considered foreign. As the
court in the turkey case put it;
“Bones which are natural to the
type of meat served cannot legiti­
mately be called a foreign sub­
stance. and a customer who eats
meat dishes ought to be on his
guard against the presence of
such bones.”
In recent years, however, courts
have been putting less emphasis
on what is natural and more em­
phasis on what a consumer might
logically expect to find in his
food.
Not long ago a man damaged
a tooth by biting on the olive in
his martini The olive had not
been pitted, although the usual
hole in the end led him to think
It had
O f course, the pit was “natural"
to the olive Nevertheless a court
ruled that the jury could reason­
ably reach a verdict in the man's
favor.
"Because a substance is natural
to a product in one stage of prepa­
ration," said the court, “does not
mean necessarily that it will be
reasonably anticipated by the con
sumer in the final product "
