The Grease: Man Finds Dead Rat Wrapped in His Sandwhich

Well this is one way to truly ruin your appetite. 

A man by the name of Steven Henderson posted an alarming tweet of a dead rat stuffed inside of a Chop't sandwich that his colleague ordered on his lunch break.  The rat wrap was ordered from the Chop't location at 80 Pine Street in lower Manhattan, which has maintained an "A" health inspection rating since the fall of last year.  Following the spread of the #RatWrap2014 trend on Twitter, the owner of the Chop't store, Tony Shure, shut down that location for the day in order for the establishment to undergo a "deep clean."  

According to an eyewitness who works with the person who unfortunately received the #RatWrap, "My colleague ordered from Seamless and it was delivered to our office.  Nobody on the receiving end saw the wrap being prepared."  

Chop't also addressed the matter on their website after conducting a thorough inspection of their store.  Their statement reads:  "Although none of the inspections at this location indicated any problems, we immediately took action.  Those actions included closing the location temporarily in an abundance of caution in order to conduct a thorough inspection of the entire facility.  Also, we have requested an inspection by the NYC Department of Health tomorrow morning in preparation for our reopening."

Steve Henderson has since taken down the picture due to all of the attention it got.  How would you react if you saw a dead rat wrapped in your sandwich?
