A father from the Toronto area is speaking out after finding an unwanted surprise in his daughter’s McDonald’s Happy Meal.

Mississauga resident James Duncan said the discovery was made on Feb. 9, shortly after taking his two young daughters through the drive-thru of the 1829 Lakeshore Road West McDonald’s.

“They went into the other room to sit and eat, and my daughter said, ‘Daddy, there’s a bone in my McNugget!” Duncan told CTV News Toronto on Wednesday. "She'd bit it and hit her loose tooth."

Duncan, caught off guard, said his daughter then pulled an approximate inch-long bone out of the piece of chicken.

"I was like, Woah,'" he said. "You can still see the hole from where she pulled it out."

The father said he tried calling McDonald’s customer service line “five or six times” but was told it was not staffed past 9 p.m. When he eventually got a hold of the Lakeshore location, he said he was asked to bring the bone in, to be sent away for analysis, and that staff told him they were happy to offer him a new pack of nuggets.
