Condom Soup Wins Triple-play Prize

These
California women win today’s "Triple Play Prize". They
got a free bowl of colorful clam chowder, powerful medication for stress
and anxiety from their doctors, and a nice fat settlement from the restaurant.
You go, girls!

Four women have settled a lawsuit against a California restaurant when
one of them allegedly found a condom in her soup.

The women had sued McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood Restaurant, claiming
negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Laila Sultan was eating clam chowder at the restaurant in Irvine, in
February last year, when she bit into an unwrapped, rolled-up condom.The
case was due to begin in Orange County Superior Court yesterday, but
the two sides reached a settlement. Details were not released.

In her claim, Sultan said she spent 15 minutes vomiting in a restaurant
toilet after spitting out the condom. The 48-year-old says she has seen
a psychiatrist and taken medication for depression and anxiety following
the incident.
