If they simply paid her medical bill in full there would be no lawsuit. And coffee should never be so hot that it gives third degree burns. Even though putting hot coffee between your legs is a bad idea what choice did she have with no cup holders. Even if she didn’t put the cup between her legs she could have spilled the coffee holding it in her hands or could have of dropped the cup and suffered the same kinds of burns. If coffee is going to be that hot then it should say do not consume right away let cool

Incomplete story::: The reason for a large "Punitive-Damage-Award" was to punish Big-Mac for its malice, because the victim's lawyers showed the Jury the age-old written exchanges among Big-Mac execs, and lawyers, that it was more profitable to keep the coffee that hot, and pay-off the victims along the way, than to lower its temperature and lose more coffee revenue, as a result of it !!! So, a reasonable jury/court would have probably awarded over $20 million as punitive damages award.

*I guarantee had the coffee been at the "correct" temperature it would still have caused severe burns.* The difference between coffee served at 190 and even 160 is enormous, IIRC the time in which third degree burns set in from a hot liquid decreases exponentially as the temperature of said liquid rises. EDIT: Found another comment further down (presumably they didn't post a link to a source to prevent the comment getting auto-removed) that puts it into perspective (assuming it is accurate of course). *At 120 degrees, it takes 5 minutes for a liquid to cause 3rd degree burns; at 130 degrees it takes 30 seconds; at 140, 6, 150 2.

If you misuse a product like a car, a knife, a ladder, or a chain saw, then obviously it is not the manufacturers responsibility. The coffee that day was served at the recommended temperature of the coffee manufacturer, give or take 10 degrees. It's not about the injury that was sustained that day, it was obviously painful. It is entirely about the fact that it is her own doing, the coffee that day was just as hot at every other fast food joint.

Kasha the point was to CHANGE the standard it’s like you have no critical thinking skills at all.

Kasha. I still don't know what to think about this case. I watched the whole video twice and I do realize that the coffee was super hot. But who doesn't know that? The fact that she put it between her legs to take the lid off to add sugar is what bothers me. Have you ever tried to put a cup of anything between your legs to take off the lid? I have and the cup always bends in and can spill on you. I feel bad for her for her terrible burns but she should have used some common sense, so I pretty much agree with you.

You clearly haven't done your research. Let alone watch the Hot Coffee documentary. If you did. You would understand.

John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

You did watch the video, didn’t you? McDonalds has burned over 700 people, many of them very harmful. And they were also notified about every. single. burn. So why don’t you shut the f*ck up and think about what you say before you say it.
