Fast-food chain fights $75,000 fine - Perth, Western Australia

HUNGRY Jack’s has lodged an appeal against a $75,000 fine after a Caversham mother choked on a 1.5cm metal shaving lodged in an onion ring, the City of Bayswater confirmed this week.

The fast food giant’s Beechboro outlet was found guilty last month on a charge of “selling unsuitable food” to Melissa Bayle in February 2012.

Hungry Jack’s was also ordered to pay costs of $11,545 at the Perth Magistrates’ Court trial.

Magistrate Elaine Campione told the court she was not satisfied Hungry Jack’s took reasonable precautions or exercised due diligence to guard against the sale of unsuitable food
