Rosemary Hayne, 39, faced Parma Municipal Judge Timothy Gilligan who said he would give her credit 60 days of prison time if she worked in a fast-food restaurant for at least 20 hours a week.
News Center 7 previously reported that Hayne threw the food into the face of a 17-year-old Chipotle worker in Parma.
She pled guilty to misdemeanor assault.
The judge said he had never handed down a sentence like this before.
“So, I thought, ‘Why should the city taxpayers pay for her and feed her for 90 days in jail if I can teach her a sense of empathy?’” said Milligan.
Hayne will spend 30 days in jail and two months working at a fast-food job.
The court still needs to approve the job.
