Settlement in suit alleging condom found in soup

Share Print Font: +-SANTA ANA, Calif. — A California man who says he ordered French onion soup and bit into a condom instead of melted cheese has settled his lawsuit against the Claim Jumper restaurant chain.

The terms of Wednesday's settlement were not disclosed. Both sides say in a statement the deal indicates no admission of liability by either party.

Zdenek Philip Hodousek of Mission Viejo sued in Superior Court last summer seeking unspecified damages.

He says he was eating Easter brunch with his family when he bit into the condom.

The company says it found no evidence of a foreign object in the soup or that there was any employee involvement or wrongdoing.

According to the chain's website, there are 46 Claim Jumper restaurants in Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and Wisconsin.

Ha.  One time I was eating in a restaurant that is part of a large chain.  It shall remain nameless but it has a day of the week in its name.  Anyway, I got a chicken and pasta dish and . . . it came with a bonus.  A finger of a glove with a little blood on it.  (thank goodness there was no finger.)  Yum Yum.  

Rats . . . I didn't know I could have gotten some cash for it in a lawsuit!  I settled for the entree being removed from my bill.  They asked if I wanted something else that night and I declined.  Lost my appetite.
