A Kansas police officer picking up some food from the local Taco Bell with his fiancee got more than spicy sauce with his order. He says he got a nasty message too.
The officer told KAKE when he checked his to-go order on Saturday, he found the word "pig" written in what appears to be black marker on his food wrappers. The couple, whose names were not revealed in KAKE reporting, said they immediately called the manager of the store.
"I was told I could bring the five tacos back, and she would have them remade," the couple told KAKE. "I advised her that we were both working and that wasn't an option. She then said she would leave a note to refund our money and get the food remade."
According to the Newton Police Department, the photo of the tacos was posted to social media by someone not affiliated with the department. The employee behind the derogatory scribble has reportedly been fired.
The Newton Police Department took to their Facebook page to say they hold no grudges against Taco Bell.
Senior director of operations for Taco Bell, Jeff Graves, told KAKE, “We do not share the same belief or view as the employee whatsoever. Our company, Taco Bell, has always been pro-law enforcement, military. We’ve always supported the police in our community. Many of our restaurants give police discounts when they come in and eat.”
