STAPLE in ice cream!!! What The **?!

OMG. It has never happened to me but it sadly did. I went to get an ice cream. My family members and I were sharing delicious ice cream and OMG OMG OMG my adult family member spitted out A STAPLE from the ice cream!!!!! Oh my gosh. We immediately stopped eating. The staple was not even in folded shape but just rectangular shape. How did that happen?! I notified the cashier and she refunded the amount and she threw away the staple but now I am so scared if I swallowed or any kids swallowed before adult member found the staple. Small sharp object can puncture organs and can become fatal.

I plan to contact the owner or corporate office or some sort....

Yes, ice cream is good but I don't want to die so I will never go back....

I must mention that I cannot recommend family to visit there if a person understands English since the background music they play is EXPLICIT (many F* word in songs and many other unsuitable words for ice cream shop). It is unnecessary for kids to be listening so I always tell kids to wait outside. Absolutely NOT family friendly ambience..... I must assume that the workers are not professional and mature enough to understand business...

My friend let me know about this place I went last night , She let me know that it was going to be 20-30 minutes while rolling her eyes at me and I told her that it was fine I was just excited I was going to try a new place out. So after that she let me know that all the topping I wanted they didn’t have it until the end she let me know that I can get them once they were done with my ice cream . I went in my car to wait for 10 minutes & went back inside the store , I stepped in and ask her for the topping she told me she couldn’t put them on because there had put them all away ! I really had a bad experience for a first time customer it made me even want to cry I felt very sad I never had someone make me feel that way and as if I was bothering them . All I wanted to was try a new place out...

We visited during the day and not so busy. Service was good. The ice cream with topping was yummy with a very good value compared to a place like cold stone.

Experience wise it could be a little confusing. Is it $6.75 for anything I want? How many topping can I put on? It seems like you can do whatever you want and have as much toppings.

Flavor wise it was lacking the creamy ice cream taste. The process of being instant ice cream might be the thing to the lack of cream. Just as long as you know this going in then you‘re ok. I added sweeten condensed milk to make up for that taste.

The place needs to add pictures to end products so that you can see the end results.

Last is a gripe. They need high chairs. People have little kids and ice cream...
