A Chopt customer filed a complaint against the salad chain alleging that she was served a salad with a piece of human finger in it.
“While she was eating the salad, she realized that she was chewing on a portion of a human finger that had been mixed into, and made a part of, the salad,” reads the complaint.
The documents allege that an unidentified manager at the restaurant accidentally severed a piece of her finger while chopping arugula. After the manager went to the hospital, the contaminated lettuce was served to customers.
The Westchester County Department of Health investigated the incident and fined the location, according toNews12 Westchester. Chopt did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
Cozzi suffered injuries like shock, panic attacks, migraine, cognitive impairment, nausea, dizziness and neck and shoulder pain as a result of eating the contaminated salad, according to the complaint.
Cozzi’s lawyer Marc Reibman tells PEOPLE that she will not be commenting further.
