This is the Lettuce You Eat at Burger King

Ever feel like nothing is secret any more because of the Internet? You may be right. It tookĀ 4ChanĀ users only 15 minutes to track down and bust the Cleveland-areaĀ Burger KingĀ employee who stood on top of two containers of shredded lettuce and then posted a picture of the gross act. 4Chan is a bulletin board-type website where members post images and comments.

“This is the lettuce you eat at Burger King,” wrote the unnamed employee on the evening of July 16. Guess he thought that was funny. Other users weren’t laughing: according toĀ Hypervocal.com,Ā Anonymous, the notorious vigilante hacking group, used GPS data embedded in the photo to locate the fast food restaurant’s address and reportedly contacted the franchise andĀ FoxNews8. “Whoever this is is getting fired,” a morning shift manager named Andrea, told theĀ Cleveland Scene.

Bryson W. Thornton, Director of Burger King’s Global Communications, wrote in a statement to Yahoo! Shine:

“Burger King Corp. has recently been made aware of a photo that shows a BURGER KINGĀ® restaurant employee violating the company’s stringent food handling procedures. Food safety is a top priority at all BURGER KINGĀ® restaurants and the company maintains a zero-tolerance policy against any violations such as the one in question. The restaurant where this photo was taken is independently-owned and operated by a BURGER KINGĀ® franchisee. The franchisee has taken swift action to investigate this matter and terminated the three employees involved in the incident.”
