"Fortunately, I don't like lettuce. Because if I did I would have at least taken one bite before I realized what was the matter," he said.
Douglas and another officer went inside the restaurant, where they found two teenagers working. The employees said they were imitating a prank in a movie in which a state trooper orders a burger and the cook spits phlegm on it.
