Demery Ardell Wilson filed a lawsuit against Whataburger for negligence after he was served onions in his meal despite a clear request to omit them due to his allergy. The incident, which happened on July 24, 2024, led to a medical reaction requiring professional care. Wilson claims that the presence of onions made the meal "unreasonably dangerous" and is seeking damages between $250,000 and $1 million. Whataburger has denied the allegations and is requesting stringent proof of his claims.
Despite the request, his meal arrived with the problematic accouterment, prompting a medical reaction that required the customer 'to seek the care of medical professionals,' per the complaint.
In accordance, Wilson is seeking compensation of 'over $250,000.00 but less than $1,000,000' but 'expressly reserves the right to amend this damage calculation as discovery progresses,' per the filing.
