MORROW, Georgia (AP) -- The Piccadilly restaurant chain has recalled a brand of turnip greens sold at some of its 132 restaurants after a customer at a Georgia outlet bit into greens containing rat body parts.

The parts came into the restaurant in Morrow frozen with the greens, which were supplied by a vendor, the chain's regional manager, Clint Celestin, said Tuesday.

"We had all that product removed from all of our stores that day," he said of the Sept. 1 incident. "Anything that was opened was thrown away. Anything that was unopened in the freezer was picked up by our supplier and sent back to the vendor."

The customer, Collis L. Warren, said he was halfway through his meal when he said to himself: "That looks like hair or fur." The 40-year-old truck driver added that he may have inadvertently eaten some of the rat.

4. I am sure they gave him a voucher for a free meal - but why would he want

to eat it there???? Kind of like when I got into a fight with an auto repair shop over their lousy service and the Customer Rep offered me vouchers for 2 free oil changes. I said no thanks, I don't want your service people anywhere near my car anymore.

6. What rat parts???? Dammit -these stories never give the details I want!

head, ears, little pointy rat nose with whiskers, rump, intestines, furry belly??????? Where did these reporters learn how to write a feature story if they can't even get the crucial details everybody wants to know?

7. G. Gordon Liddy will be calling them for carryout.

"No, no -- I want the liver! Oh, and make sure you put the head on top of the salad dressing, with the nose pointing up, and put the onion rings around it!"
