Re: Stella Liebeck said by copperdoctor:
No where on the Mcdonalds cups does it currently say "IF YOU SPILL THIS ON YOU YOU WILL RECEIVE 3RD DEGREE BURNS SO STRIP IMMEDIATLY!!!" They still just say CAUTION, HOT! Or something to the effect of "Hey dufuss, it's coffee, it's hot, don't spill it on you"
That would partly be because McDonald's lowered the holding temp of their coffee from 205 degree down to 185 degree in response to the lawsuit so that a similar incident (or rather a similar lawsuit) would not occur again.
