Personally I think this is rather a bad joke intended to get all sorts
of attention and flames. Perhaps Mr North is trying to see how sue happy
people are in this country or to find a sue happy lawyer to harass. 
I cannot imagine that a human toe could hide
out very well in any of the foods normally associated with fast food
(french fries, burgers etc) except maybe fried chicken. If it were in
chicken, he wouldn't have noticed and consumed all but the bones.
Besides that, it is hard to imagine how a toe could get into the food
supply. (Fingers maybe).
i.e. I think this is a hoax!!!!!
