French Jimmy Soup

A Mission Viejo man is suing an Orange County based restaurant chain after he says he found a condom in a bowl of french onion soup.

According to court documents filed Tuesday, Philip Hodousek and his wife, Sherry, along with their eighteen year old daughter went to the "Claim Jumper" restaurant in Mission Viejo to enjoy an Easter Brunch on Sunday, April 12, 2009.

Hodousek says they ordered drinks, appetizers and a couple of main courses from the server. Among the items ordered was a bowl of french onion soup.

After the server brought the soup to the table, Hodousek says he immediately began eating the cheese which was spread across the top portion of the bowl.As he ate the soup, he felt what he believed was a tough piece of cheese on the side of his mouth. When he couldn't chew it into pieces, he told his family that it felt like rubber, according to the court filing.Hodousek says he spit it out into his napkin, at which time his wife said, "Oh my God, it's a condom."

After speaking with the server, the restaurant's general manager, Marc Hadley, came over to the table and explained that the item was a rubber glove used by employees to prepare food and apologized, the documents say.

After further inspection, it was clear the item was not a rubber glove, but clearly a condom, Hodousek says.

True Story: The almost identical thing happened to Rossman at a Vermont Wendy's, but Rossman deftly removed the rubber glove and ate his chicken sandwich without complaint or second thought. He did subsequently go to the counter to complain about the lack of cheese sauce provided for his fries.

The fart doesn't lie, and the sandwich was delicious.
