CLEVELAND, Tenn. â Some don't like it hot. A Steak 'n Shake restaurant in Cleveland, Tenn., was sued by a couple who claimed it served a hot sauce that sent their son to the hospital.
Tim and Mary Katherine Gann said a restaurant server gave their minor child a bottle of Blair's Mega Death Sauce for his chili and encouraged him to eat some. When he did, he broke out in hives, had trouble breathing and suffered severe pain.
The brand isn't customarily served by the chain, according to the Cleveland Daily Banner. Mega Death's maker warns that it's "500 times hotter than a jalapeno."
A spokeswoman for franchise owner Debbie Richmond said Thursday the company wasn't commenting.
The lawsuit seeks $10,000 in compensation and $50,000 punitive damages.

Talk about a ridiculous lawsuit-did they pour it down his throat? How old was that kid? All it said was "minor child"-so that's anything under 18-if he had food allergies then he should have known better-and where were his parents?
