Girl found metal blade in baguette, court hears

The owner of a fast-food takeaway has been fined €250 after a six-year-old girl found a metal blade when she bit into a chicken baguette.

Dublin District Court heard it was reported by the girl’s mother to the Food Safety Authority and the prosecution was then brought by the Health Service Executive.

Valdet Talla, the owner of the Roma Springfield takeaway in Tallaght, Dublin, pleaded guilty to breaking food safety regulations.
