Two Raising Cane's employees were fired this week after a video went viral showing one worker stirring tea with her arm while the other one filmed.
The video, which was taken at a Raising Cane's location in Kansas City, Missouri, was reportedly posted onto Snapchat before it made its way onto Facebook on Tuesday, where it now has over a million views.
The teenage employee grins as she dunks her forearm into the tea, while the other employee laughs in the background. The video is captioned with "Don't drink tea from Cane's," before she pours the tea into a dispenser from where it is served to customers.
The president and COO of Raising Cane's, AJ Kumaran, released a statement to local affiliate FOX4 on Wednesday, confirming that two employees had been fired and that the company had been in touch with local authorities to review the incident.
