Yaaagghhhh! Are the lapbobbers still running that place?


CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. (May 8, 2009)--T.G.I. Friday's says a severed snakehead found in a dish of broccoli at one of its upstate New York restaurants was likely planted in the meal.

Diner Jack Pendleton said he found the snakehead the size of his thumb mixed in with his vegetables at T.G.I. Friday's in Clifton Park on Sunday.

The Ballston Lake man said he thought at first it was a mushroom.

The Carrollton, Texas, based-company says Friday it has asked the New York State Police to open a criminal investigation into product tampering.

Spokeswoman Amy Freshwater said the snakehead was sent for testing at an independent laboratory that confirmed it had never been cooked and was added to the cooked broccoli.

Freshwater says the company doesn't know who put the head in the meal.

Pendleton says he didn't do it.

Pendleton says he hadn't intended to go public, but he e-mailed
his cell phone photo of the head to his friends, and one of them
posted it on a consumer complaint Web site.
