So far the only compensation offered by the ice cream maker is a $10 voucher, something which Mr Kenny said was completely unacceptable.
"Given how serious it is, $10 doesn't quite cut it for me. She could have swallowed that (needle), and I am thinking 'how the hell did it get in there in the first place'?
"They said they have tried ringing on several occasions, but my phone has been on the whole time."
Mr Kenny also alleges that when he threatened to take his case to the media, a Tip Top staff member who had been handling their case asked them not to.
Tip Top was unable to respond to Mr Kenny's allegations by today's Westport News deadline.
