Emergency room Made Jan 25, 2015, sent to the company Feb 2, 2015, published by CPSC Feb 25, 2015
The product, in the report: 10 inch long, black plastic handled BBQ grill brush with wire bristles and metal scraper on the end. I purchased it at Bomgaars in O’Neill, NE on 7-5-14 for $4.49, merchandise # 060162773365. I believe it said it was made in China on the packaging.
One of the loose bristles from my BBQ grill brush got stuck in the hamburger I grilled, I chewed and swallowed the bite of hamburger and the bristle ended up embedded in my neck muscle. The bristle must have been bent over as I chewed and created a “spring action” as I swallowed and it shot into my neck. It felt like I had a stick pin lodged in my throat for 36 hours, but the doctors could not find it. After consulting 6 doctors (over a period of about 5 months), I found one who could see the foreign object on the original cat scan that was taken the first day after it happened. On Jan. 22, 1915 the 6th doctor was able to remove the bristle in surgery.
