- STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A customer in an international
hamburger chain outlet in western Sweden lost his appetite when he discovered
the restaurant's toilet seats were being washed in its dishwasher alongside
the kitchen utensils.
-
- The man noticed on a visit to the bathroom in the restaurant
in Arvika, Sweden, that all the toilet seats had been removed.
-
- When he asked staff about the missing seats, an employee
took them out of a dishwasher where they had been cleaned together with
trays and kitchen utensils, the Swedish TT news agency reported on Thursday,
quoting the regional newspaper Nya Wermlands-Tidningen.
-
- The employee tried to reassure the customer by saying
that the freshly washed toilet seat would be warm and pleasant to sit on.
-
- A senior representative of the restaurant chain said
the incident was a mistake and not standard company procedure. Arvika's
environmental and health inspector later visited the restaurant.
