"We haven't found<br />

anything to support<br />

alleg<strong>at</strong>ions <strong>Wendy's</strong> or<br />

our supply chain were the<br />

source <strong>of</strong> the object in<br />

question" - Bob Bertini<br />

"<strong>Wendy's</strong> is confident the<br />

finger did not come from<br />

one <strong>of</strong> its suppliers<br />

because <strong>of</strong> product<br />

coding th<strong>at</strong> allows the<br />

company to trace where a<br />

product comes from, the<br />

day it was produced,<br />

when it was shipped and<br />

when it arrived <strong>at</strong> the<br />

restaurant" - Denny Lynch<br />
