"We are committed to running great restaurants that provide our customers with high quality food, service and a clean environment.
This is a part of our soft serve equipment that does not come into contact with any food and is required to undergo regular and timely cleaning," McDonald's issued a statement to Huffington Post.
The owner and operator of the restaurant location issued a statement to BuzzFeed, saying "The company regularly conducts in-person and online employee training sessions as well as internal inspections to ensure crew members are following safe food practices. In addition, we have a long history of passing regular health department inspections." (dpa)
