"I was in the state of just panic, just numbness, just because I wanted to make sure she was fine," Brittani McGhee-Smith told KVII.
McGhee-Smith said her grandfather discovered the two pills buried in the pasta's marina sauce, according to WTXF. After a quick search online, she discovered they were 50mg tablets of the opiate, Tramadol.
The City of Amarillo Environmental Health Department told KVII officials inspected the Cheddar's restaurant and discovered that personal medication was being kept on the kitchen prep line.
In a statement to KVII, Cheddar's said it has partnered with the health department to review its policy on personal items and proper storage.
