Another reason not to eat fast food!

OLATHE, KAN - According to their menu, the Sonic Chicken Wrap comes with grilled chicken breast, fresh lettuce and ranch dressing. But one metro customer says that he got an additional, unwelcome ingredient with his wrap, and now he says that he is looking into hiring a lawyer.

Robert Borushko says that he found a tomato dicer blade when he bit into a Chicken Wrap purchased from a Sonic Drive-In at 119th Street in Olathe. He says that he was shocked when he took a bite and pulled a razor blade out of his mouth.

"I thought I broke a tooth at first because when I bit down, it was hard," said Borushko. "It's about one inch, I put it up against a ruler."

Sonic's corporate office sent FOX 4 a statement saying that a very small piece of a blade of a tomato dicer broke off, and that they have apologized to the customer and offered Borushko $200 for the inconvenience.

According to the Sonic corporate office, the Sonic Drive-In in Olathe has a history of good scores on public health inspections and third-party food safety audits.

Borushko says that he was not impressed by their offer.

"It was a smack in the face for biting on a razor blade," said Borushko. "(The Sonic representative's) whole thing is there's no serious injury, I wasn't cut. It's not a serious matter to them."

Borushko says that it is a serious matter to him, and now he's looking into hiring a lawyer. He says that he filed a report with the Olathe Police Department, but officers said that they found no evidence of criminal misconduct.

"If I swallowed it or gave it to one of my nieces or nephews and a little kid got that razor blade and didn't know to quit chewing, the damage could have been done to them," said Borushko.
