EP 44 EXPOSED! The Warnings Doctor | Failure to Warn: McDonald's Found Liable Again for Failing to Warn Customers About Risk of Hot Products - with Dr. Gerry Goldhaber
Has McDonald's learned their lesson regarding principled disclosure of hidden hazards in hot food and beverage? Did McDonald's know that their hot products posed a safety hazard to their customers? McDonald's was caught serving its food and beverages at temperatures significantly higher than the rest of the industry, resulting in serious burns. Florida jurors recently found a McDonald's franchise holder liable for negligence and failure to warn customers about the risk of hot food, and McDonald’s USA liable for failing to provide instructions for safe handling of the food. This latest litigation was reminiscent of the 1994 case, Stella Liebeck v. McDonald's, known as the "hot coffee case." Stella Liebeck spilled McDonald's coffee on her legs and faced third-degree burns due to the high temperature of the liquid. In this episode of EXPOSED, go behind-the-scenes of the Liebeck litigation and hear why these hot product lawsuits are anything but frivolous. I have testified and consulted on hundreds of cases involving the failure to warn customers about the risk of hot food and beverage. Goldhaber Research Associates play a key role in supporting these types of claims, educating the judge or jury, and conveying expert opinions through detailed and cogent reports as well as during deposition or courtroom testimony.
