A routine online ice cream delivery in Mumbai took a sinister twist when a doctor discovered a human finger in his dessert. The incident has sent shockwaves through the community and raised serious concerns about food safety and quality control.
The incident occurred when 26-year-old MBBS doctor, Brandon, placed an order for a butterscotch ice cream cone through the popular app, Yumno. In a video statement shared with Indian media, Brandon recounted the harrowing experience. He stated that after consuming half the ice cream, he felt something hard in his mouth, which he promptly removed instead of swallowing.
To his horror, Brandon realized that the object was not a culinary addition, but rather a severed human finger, complete with visible fingernails. As a medical professional, Brandon immediately recognized the gravity of the situation and decided to preserve the evidence.
“Instead of throwing the ice cream away, I stored it in the freezer to give it to the police as evidence,” Brandon said in his statement.
An FIR (First Information Report) has been registered against the ice cream company, Yumno, and the 1.5 cm long piece of the finger has been sent for forensic analysis. The authorities are now conducting a thorough investigation to determine the origin of the finger and the circumstances surrounding this macabre incident.
This shocking discovery has raised serious concerns about the quality control and safety measures employed by online food delivery services. Consumers are now left questioning the integrity of the food they receive, and the incident has sparked a wider discussion about the need for stricter regulations and oversight in the industry.
