A Hamburger Today
Methamphetaburger
The New York Times, picking up an Associated Press story, reports that a Missouri police officer's Quarter Pounder with Cheese was laced with meth.
Talk about "special sauce."
The police officer's Quarter Pounder with Cheese tasted a little funny, and for good reason: It was laced with methamphetamine. The incident happened in December in Desloge, Mo., about 50 miles southwest of St. Louis, but was not made public until Friday.Police Chief James Bullock told KMOV-TV in St. Louis that the officer went to McDonald's the day after Christmas and bought the sandwich, then took it back to the police station.
''He thought it tasted kind of funny so he looked at the burger,'' Bullock said. ''It looked like it had a foreign substance on it.''
The burger was sent to the Missouri Highway Patrol crime lab for testing and tested positive for meth.
