Watch what you eat!
The assistant manager of a South Carolina Burger King is in some serious trouble after serving customers fries that had been in the trash can.
Jaime Christine Major, 39, was charged on Monday with tampering with food, a felony, for taking French fries from the trash and adding them to the container where freshly cooked fries are placed and then dumping just-cooked fries on top.
The Union Police Department responded to a reported disturbance at the fast food joint on July 9. Upon arriving at the restaurant, police found two women screaming at the staff, threatening them, and using profuse profanity.
When the two women refused to quiet down at the officers’ request, they were both arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.
Two days later, Burger King headquarters called police and told them that Major had been serving fries from the trash can.
After a thorough investigation, a warrant was issued for Major’s arrest.
If convicted, she could face up to 20 years in prison. A judge set her bond at $20,000 and she remains in custody at the Union County Detention Center as of Tuesday.
