Mom threatens to sue school cafeteria after what it served her child

A mom has left TikTok viewers divided after threatening to sue her child’s school cafeteria over the hamburger patty it served them for lunch.

In a viral slideshow with over 50.3 million views, TikToker thatscrazy_64 shared a series of photos of their hamburger, and screenshots of an exchange between their mom and a representative of their school.

The first email of the photoset shows the student’s mother describing the quality of the burger patty served as having a “foul smell and unpleasant texture.”

“This incident not only affected my child’s student’s lunch experience but raises concerns about the amount of students who unknowingly ate this very lunch,” the email reads. “As a parent, there is absolutely no reason why anyone should be served such a thing.

“The look of the burger itself is sickening and I will be pressing charges; Due to the lack of food regulations being put in place, I believe it is crucial to ensure that the food provided in our school meets the necessary standards of quality, freshness, and safety. I look forward to speaking with you in court.”

School responds to mom’s complaints

The next photo shows the school’s reply, informing the student’s parent that while several complaints were received by the district, no action will be taken as response.

“Although there is a slight discoloration with the meat, it is still edible,” the email reads. “If you or your daughter have an issue with the lunch being served, don’t eat it. Packing a lunch is still an option.”

Many TikTok users thought there’s nothing wrong with the burger. “The ‘barnacle burger’ simply consisted of your average burger meat creating air bubbles that eventually pop due to juices,” one wrote.

“Literally just frozen and directly put on the grill. I make monthly burger batches with fresh meat and freeze look like this sometimes never had issues,” another said.

Others couldn’t believe the student’s mom was taking legal action over it. “It’s just oil bubbles why you wanna press charges?” one person commented. “This is normal with frozen burgers or ones with grid patterns. Pressing charges is wild,” another shared.
