Chicken sandwiches taste better without metal.

A woman in Australia says she bit into a chicken sandwich from McDonald’s and discovered a piece of metal inside of the sandwich. To make matters worse, she says she almost gave the sandwich to her 3-year-old niece before biting into it.

Ada Teaupa posted a picture of the sandwich on Facebook, which shows what appears to be a metal rod sticking out of a partially eaten chicken sandwich. She captioned the photos, “Look what I found in the chicken & cheese! Nearly broke my tooth! My 3-year-old niece ordered a chicken & cheese as well and thank god I didn’t give it to her yet!”

She described her reaction after discovering the metal, saying that she felt her “tooth bite into something hard and thought ‘oh no this is glass.’”

The outlet reports that she brought the sandwich back to the McDonald’s, where they offered her a replacement.
