geared Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 One case was the USA, and from what I remember the woman got pretty extensive burns because they had the machine up at some crazy temperature. I'm pretty sure there was another one involving their apple pies as well, which for a long time were nuclear hot when you got given them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with many of these cases, I think there was a bit more to it than first meets the eye https://www.poolelg.com/blog/the-truth-behind-the-mcdonald-s-hot-coffee-case-.cfm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the case where a McDonald's customer won millions because the coffee was too hot!! Can remember a few years ago , early morning going fishing. My mate wanted a coffee so we went to McDonald’s. He got me one and when I went to have a drink he stopped me and warned me it would be nuclear hot . We were at Dinnington before we dare have a drink. How is this possible? When something has a boiling point it doesn’t get hotter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
