$1.99 for a small. Unless you count the truck repair, the home demolition and the lawsuit. And then it comes to about $4,438,993.99

When trucker Eric Gremm ordered a small Wendy’s chili to go, he figured he was probably in for a little indigestion and some in-cabin methane poisoning. But he never thought the meal would make him crash his rig into some unlucky bastard’s house.

But, that is precisely what happened.

As the story goes, Eric was slurping down his spicy bowl of goodness while driving through Lowell, Massachusetts. Mr. Gremm claims the food went “down the wrong pipe” causing him to get lightheaded and pass out.

The rest of the story, as the they say, is history.  Mr. Gremm’s rig took out a house, knocking it completely off of its foundation. He also destroyed an uneaten Biggie Fries and large Frosty, both of which succombed to the impact, and went flying to the floor.

When asked to comment, Mr. Gremm could only say, “Damn I’m hungry. I wish I woulda crashed into a McDonald’s or something.”

Mr. Gremm could face charges of reckless operation and assault with a deadly value meal.
