Woman sues McDonald’s after meal left her ‘violently ill’ and needing ‘several operations’

  • Texas woman Yvette Hinds is suing McDonald's , alleging she suffered severe and permanent injuries from a contaminated Sausage McMuffin with Egg.
  • Hinds' civil complaint, filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, claims the sandwich contained "contaminants, poisons, toxins, parasites, bacteria, germs and/or organisms."
  • After consuming the McMuffin, Hinds reportedly became "violently ill and nauseated," leading to "several operations, procedures and treatments" and ongoing inability to perform her customary duties.
  • The lawsuit accuses McDonald's and the franchisee of negligence in food preparation and seeks unspecified money damages, attorney's fees, and court costs.
  • This case follows other recent lawsuits against McDonald's, including claims of hair and metal in a burger, an allergic reaction to cheese, and gastric distress from a "rotten" chicken sandwich.
