After you read this article, you’ll realize that sputum in the food is the least of a misbehaving diner’s worries. (Note: I do not condone this behavior.) ) Yuk!

I want to wait tables in Australia!
I wonder what happens if someone orders Rocky Road ice cream in that place? Or soft serve? The possibilities for cholera and typhus are endless!
My favorite part of the whole story is that they have 3 boys and their names are Tom, Thomas, and Ben. They should have went for the trifecta and named Ben, Tom Tom.
“This is my brother Tom, not to be confused with my Brother Tom Tom.”
Oh, and the shit in the ice cream was also gross.
thats just wrong, i just got ice cream too… now im not in the mood anymore. *sigh* is nothing sacred anymore.
What do you “understand”? The fact that they put feces in someone’s food? Or the father’s outrage and desire for a legal suit?
I have to admit that I would not have had Mr. Whyte’s self-control. I would have put somebody in the hospital and wound up in jail for assault. I hope they give McDonald a chance to launch his investigation as well.
Now, I don’t want my ice cream either. But thanks for sharing the information. It will be some time before I want ice cream again.
that is beyond wrong, sugar!
You have about convinced me that I don’t want to eat in restaurants any more.
Did the article say what the victims had doen to “deserve” that treatment?
I don’t really know how to do this tactfully, but I guess you meant “sputnum IN the food”?
For some reason, now I want to eat my ice cream…
I was eating a cup of partially melted chocolate moose tracks icecream, you know, with the little lumps of chocolate covered almonds… I don’t want it any more
Last time I had a conversation about poo and ice cream, it had to do with a couple of girls and a cup…
Sounds like a big SCAM to me.
That is so far beyond wrong there just aren’t words for it. And I absolutely agree with Dr. Electro…someone would have ended up in the hospital if that was done to me! Whoever is responsible needs to be doing some serious jail time for that.
That’s a shit dessert. LOL
Everyone seems to be assuming the hotel is guilty. How do you know the family didn’t put the shit in the ice-cream themselves and demand a million bucks? All the staff working there have volunteered for DNA tests, to prove it wasn’t theirs…
Hm… if this is really what happened and the guests didn’t spike it themselves, I would guess two things are going on. The restaurant has someone working there who is close to going completely off the rocker, and the ‘minor incident’ that sparked this was not so minor. Complaining about the TV and bringing ice cream from somewhere else… I have the feeling these people might have been douches. Not that that makes this at all okay. Gross.
There is a special place in HELL for someone who could do something SO VILE, this goes off the deep end and I SWEAR were this my children, i’d be in jail because there would have been plenty of waiters with their asses BLOWN OFF!!! How FILTHY! Wonder if the workers at burger king can read this? hmmmmm something else for those brainless wonders to do in the kitchen sink! YUK
Eeewwwwwwwww!!! I’d be going ethnic on somebody fo sho!
Okay so this is totally bullshit (excuse the pun) but I live in Sydney and this whole incident is a joke.
a) it was the first time that that kitchen had been open in over six months so therefore the chefs didn’t know each other and that type of stuff only goes on when the staff are more than 100% comfortable with each other
b) I was there on the day in question and the Coogee Bay was getting SO totally rammed that there would have been no time for a chef to drop his dacks and do that to someones desert
c) The sports game in question was an evening game. What type of parents take their young children to one of the busiest bars in a city with a population of 4.5 million and then complain that they can’t hear the telly? Actually what type of parents take their kids to a bar anyway?
d) In a place as busy as the Coogee Bay where you are frantically busy the kitchen staff wouldn’t even know when a customer complained as the FOH would have just comped the customer something/ anything at NO cost to the bar in question therefore why would the staff care
e) I have worked in the hospitality industry for over 15 years and have never even seen anyone spit on food intentionally at all. Ever.
There are more than two sides to every story….
when i waitressed at a private restaurant for a few years, some of the wait staff learned to piss in drinks.. absolutely awful to the umpteenth degree.
I just read this update:
“”Adam Wood, formerly the head chef at the Foreign Correspondent’s Club of Japan, is in deep doodoo. He is among several accused of contaminating the Whyte family’s chocolate gelato with poop late last October at Australia’s Congee Bay Hotel.
The “Gelatogate” scandal all started when the Whytes complaining about the hotel’s pub; to compensate, the hotel gave them free gelato. Mrs. Whyte took one bite out of her ice cream and immediately suspected poop. She saved it in a napkin for testing, and the results came out positive for fecal matter. Wood is a suspect because of the coincidental timing of his resignation and the fact that he’s only been at the job for a few weeks. Mrs. Whyte has apparently been afflicted with PTSD symptoms and finds cleaning her baby’s butt and eating out traumatizing. (by Emily Co)””
Your writing is very inspirational. It inspires me to write more of a better quality for my blog
The majority of people believe this was a scam. The pub actually had CCTV cameras in the kitchen and there was absolutely no evidence on caught on film that any wrongdoing occurred.
The whole thing got settled out of Court and the Cogee Bay hotel admitted it wasn’t a scam.
