Simpson reportedly claimed in the lawsuit that she lost her soprano voice. Since the incident, Simpson said that her voice became "hoarse" and "rattly." The 52-year-old clerk also claimed that she is being mistaken for a man when she talks over the phone.

On Tuesday, Paul Goodman, owner and operator of several McDonald's restaurant in Manhattan emailed a statement to The Huffington Post. Goodman explained that,

Rest assured I take these matters very seriously. Providing safe food and beverages is a top priority at my restaurant. Upon learning about this claim, I took immediate action to gather the facts and began an investigation into the matter. As this is a pending legal matter, it would [be] inappropriate to comment further.

A series of lawsuits has been filed against McDonald's recently due to several unwanted objects found in their food. Among the items found by consumers include a used condom and a sharp plastic.
