Mumbai: MBBS Doctor Finds Human Finger in Butterscotch Ice Cream Ordered Online

You might have heard of finger chips, but finger ice cream? When Orlem resident Brendan Serrao (27) ordered a cone ice cream on Wednesday through an online delivery app, little did he realize he would be in for a big shock.

Upon opening the lid of the Yummo butterscotch cone and starting to enjoy the ice cream, something hard hit his tongue. He pulled it out and discovered it was a piece of a human finger, approximately 2 cm long. Serrao, an MBBS doctor, immediately recognised the object and notified the authorities. He had ordered three butterscotch cone ice creams alongside groceries earlier that morning through the same online delivery app.

After discovering the foreign object, Serrao promptly informed the Malad police about the incident. A senior police official assured that the finger piece would be sent to the forensic laboratory for investigation. Additionally, authorities will conduct a thorough search of the manufacturing and packaging facility of the ice cream to determine the source of the contamination. “We are taking this matter seriously,” the official added.
