Cucumber Rage Leads To Man's Arrest At Wendy's

Don't mess with the cucumbers

Incensed that there were not enough cucumbers in his salad, a Pennsylvania man allegedly threatened the life of a Wendy’s employee and later sought to drive away from the fast food eatery while a police officer had his arm inside the suspect’s vehicle, according to court records.

Police say that Theodore Gunderson, 58, entered the Wendy’s in Earl Township around 3:40 PM Sunday and ordered a salad.

Upon receiving his grub, the 5’8”, 240-pound Gunderson “immediately caused a disturbance in the business by throwing the salad at an employee because the salad did not have enough cucumbers,” a probable cause affidavit charges.

Gunderson then threatened the employee, saying, “If I had a gun or a knife you would be the first to go.”


He's a bastard person because he made me miss the burgers at Wendy's.

And a guy came in and threw a fit because of something the person working the drive through said. It got so bad a young couple in the place called the police. He was able to talk his way out of a one way trip to the jail after the young couple didn't want to press charges. I still kick myself that I didn't insist on charges being filed against his ass.
