Video shows woman spitting out toxic tea
It happened at a Utah restaurant earlier this year, reportedly after a mistake by an employee

SOUTH JORDAN, UT (KTRK) -- Surveillance video from the toxic tea incident at a restaurant in Utah back in August has just been released.



In the video, you can see Jan Harding in a blue shirt. She takes a few sips of her iced tea, then spits it out and rinses her mouth out with water.



Investigators say an employee accidentally used a chemical cleaner instead of sugar.



Harding spent six days in the hospital with burns to her mouth and throat.
