A customer complained to the Japanese arm of the fast food giant after finding a foreign body in a serving of potatoes from an outlet in Osaka, two senior vice presidents told a press conference in Tokyo. ?An independent investigation ordered by McDonald's determined that the object was a tooth but concluded that it had not been cooked, said McDonald's staff.

麥當(dāng)勞方面稱,，他們沒能找出這顆牙齒是如何混入食品中的,，公司還在調(diào)查原因。在麥當(dāng)勞看來,，薯?xiàng)l原料在產(chǎn)地美國遭污染的可能性不大,，而餐廳也沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)哪名員工的牙齒最近脫落。
The customer, a mother with a small child, told a TV station that the store manager who visited her said the tooth had been "fried". "I received an apology only when the store manager came over," the customer, whose name was not revealed, told the JNN network.

The incident is the latest public relations setback for the firm, and comes after a customer found a piece of vinyl inside a chicken nugget at an outlet in the northern city of Misawa. There was a similar case of contamination at a Tokyo branch. The company also said a tiny piece of hard plastic was found in a sundae in the northeastern city of Koriyama in December.

麥當(dāng)勞日本副總裁青木岳彥承認(rèn),，麥當(dāng)勞銷售的食品中出現(xiàn)過異物,，包括“麥滿分”漢堡中發(fā)現(xiàn)塑料。不過,，這些是“個案”,，麥當(dāng)勞的食品安全管理不存在系統(tǒng)性問題。青木岳彥表示,，“我們的目標(biāo)是實(shí)現(xiàn)零狀況,。我們正竭盡全力一個接一個地處理這些問題”。
