This came up in my psychology class while we were talking about taste aversion:
Suit: Burger King served pot burgers to cops
ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico (AP) -- Two police officers sued Burger King Corp., claiming
they were served hamburgers that had been sprinkled with marijuana.
The lawsuit says Mark Landavazo and Henry Gabaldon, officers for the Isleta Pueblo
tribal police, were in uniform and riding in a marked patrol car when they bought
meals at the drive-through lane October 8 of a Burger King restaurant in Los Lunas,
New Mexico.
The officers ate about half of their burgers before discovering marijuana on the
meat, the lawsuit said. They used a field test kit to confirm the substance was pot,
then went to a hospital for medical evaluations.
"It gives a whole new meaning to the word 'Whopper,"' the officers' attorney, Sam
Bregman, said Monday.
"The idea that these hoodlums would put marijuana into a hamburger and therefore
attempt to impair law enforcement officers trying to do their jobs is outrageous."
Three Burger King employees were arrested and charged with possession of marijuana
and aggravated battery on an officer, a felony. They later were indicted.
The lawsuit, filed Friday in Bernalillo County, alleges personal injury, negligence,
battery and violation of fair practices. It seeks unspecified damages along with
legal costs.
Officials at Miami-based Burger King declined to comment, citing a company policy
against discussing pending litigation.
