A Fair Haven man is suing the company that owns Rutland's Burger King,
claiming he found a condom in his burger. Van Miguel Hartless, 24, says
he visited the restaurant last June. The condom was underneath a slice
of lettuce in his Burger King's Southwest Whopper.

"It was just disgusting. 'It's gross is putting it mildly," said
Hartless.

Hartless says he doesn't know why anyone would put a condom in his
burger, but admits he did have an argument with an employee at the
restaurant about the toppings on his burger.

Hartless is now suing the company that owns the restaurant. In the
lawsuit, his lawyer says the burger has caused Hartless pain, suffering,
nightmares, distress, and medical expenses.

"It sounds silly now, but I'd be doing something in my dream and
whatever I was holding and whatever I was doing would either turn into a
condom or a burger," said Hartless.

Hartless was tested for HIV and STDs and those tests came back negative.
He says he also submitted to a polygraph test which he passed.

"From the beginning it was never about money. I made that very clear.
All I wanted was if I contracted something I wanted them responsible for
it," said Hartless.

But he is now seeking unspecified damages because he says Burger King
continues to deny any wrongdoing, aside from a letter telling him the
company is sorry he had an unpleasant experience. A manager at the
Rutland Burger King declined to comment, and Carrolls Corporation, the
company that owns the restaurant, did not return our calls.

Never, ever piss off the people preparing your food. It's just not
worth it, especially over a fucking $2 burger. Anybody who has ever
worked a day in the food service industry knows this.

Here is a hint: HIv won't show up for at least six months.

Lets see this guy has an arguement over the toppings, then he
finds this condom on his burger. Gee could the two be
releated?

2 - 8 weeks or better depending on what test is used. Don't talk about
medical stuff unless you know what you're talking about..at least when
I'm here.

I've been advised by medical professionals that it takes about
six months to show up.

The six months is their figure not mine.

That figure is years old but unless you're in the medical field or
know someone with the disease then I guess you may not know.

anyone who sends food back to a kitchen (fast-food or otherwise) is
gambling. The smart thing to do is just eat what is edible, bad-mouth
the place to everyone you know, and never go back.
