"Did you all see that?" a woman who resembles Thomas says in the video. "He just blew a booger on those sandwiches.”

After the video became a hit on YouTube, officials opened an investigation amid a public outcry. Thompson and Setzer turned themselves in.

The Pizza restaurant, which maintained a 96.5-97.5 rating for excellent sanitation ratings from local authorities, fired the two, who face a variety of criminal charges.

“We are appalled by the actions of these individuals and they do not represent the 125,000 hard-working men and women of Domino’s Pizza across the country and in 60 countries around the world," Dominos official said in a public statement.
