>>>>Some time ago McDonald's got sued because somebody got burned by their coffee. So after that incident they had a warning "Be careful the coffee can be very hot" or something similar. A funny thing MacDonald's chould have done (not only MacDonald's but every shops serving coffee) is to serve cold coffee from that day and tell it's customers "Go heat it at home because we can't guarantee the heat of it.

No but I read it now.

Excuse me for not reading it. There was really a problem with their coffee. But we hear of so many cases where individuals sue enterprises just to make a quick buck. I thought that it was the case too here.
