I'm running out of attention span for reading governmenteze today.
Who knows if there are amendments or contradictory and superseding guidelines somewhere. I spent 30 minutes in "mechanically separated meat," which is actually only the paste products from what I can tell, not "chicken fingers," which seem to be at issue here?

They really make it sound appetising, don't they? "bone or hard bone-like material greater than 1.91 cm (0.75 inch)" sounds like roughly oesophagus sized.

More than 3/4 of an inch? If so, it seems by FarmBoy's research that he should have had a case against the meat-processing plant.

Yes it was larger than that, but the thing is, the Ohio Supreme Court did not rule in favor of the restaurant/farmer/meat processing plant at all, the court simply said that the man in question who got his esophagus sliced lengthwise has no right to a trial because they don't think he has a case, period. His "court case" has never actually seen a single day of judgement. You can view the bone here (time stamp 1:27) and also see footage of the man himself in a coma and on feeding and air tubes throughout this video interview:

Three dismissals in a row. Next step would be to actually read the opinions and work on up.
The lawyers may have over-sued.
A similar case against Disney is winding up. A woman died of a food allergy and Disney is getting sued in addition to the restaurant. They're testing if anyone who ever signed up for a free month of Disney+ can forever be forced into arbitration.

Interestingly, there was never a mention of over-suing in any of the refusals to go to trial nor an allowance to sue one or two parties of the three groups only. Hence why the justices said that the man has no case to make, period, because boneless is a cooking style, and no reasonable person would expect a chicken product to be guaranteed free of bones (regardless of the name) because it's common knowledge that chickens have bones.
Hey, he's now the record holder for eating the largest bone ever in a boneless wing. Perhaps that will help raise the popularity of the boneless cooking style as others attempt to beat his boned-boneless numbers.

If his (probably contingency fee) lawyers had restrained themselves, the courts wouldn't have had as much of a precedent to set down. Maybe they'd have done it anyways. That was quite a massively unfortunate swallow.
Ah well. Regulatory punishment is not the same as liability.

But would a jury of his peers have proven themselves reasonable and declared that "boneless" is indeed a cooking style and not an express warranty that what you are eating doesn't contain bones or spiders or spider bones above the federally allowable limits? Now the world may never know....
It's not actually a similar case. A dude getting his throat torn open isn't Disney, a megabucks multibillion dollar corporation, trying to get away with
I mean, I'm assuming you're being critical of Disney here. I am. We are, right?
* also a good TV show.

I agree the Disney case is not similar at all from what I heard.
The victim reportedly specifically asked about allergens and was told there weren't any.
Trying to weasel out of responsibility based on TOS should NOT fly here!

It's similar in its a food case where the suing extends to anything regardless of control over the offending proffered negligence.
The culture is sick in this way. And it offers Disney a better shot at putting down this stupid precedent than it should have. Critical idiocy in how we do liability.

This is a bit right
I think there needs to be a legal avenue for recourse, especially against giant companies. Sometimes it's the only tool an individual (human) person has.
There's a difference between "people culturally being too into litigation" which is something I'm familiar with as a US "thing", and valid complaints that need to go somewhere. Nevermind "offering Disney a better shot", like they wouldn't try that regardless. Don't blame people for corpos being corporate. Don't blame people for trying. Which is how it's coming across at least.
