Band-aid mistake in chicken soup sparks online outrage in Thailand
An unexpected discovery in a bowl of soup left a consumer feeling queasy, after mistaking a band-aid for a piece of chicken.
A member of the Facebook group พวกเราคือผู้บริโภค (We Are Consumers) recently shared their unsettling experience by posting a photo and a caption. Initially believing they had bitten into chicken skin, it turned out to be a band-aid. The shocking find prompted the consumer to swear off the restaurant.
“Once is enough for this place.”
The graphic image displayed a nearly finished bowl of soup, likely a noodle dish, illustrating the unfortunate discovery. The band-aid was only noticed after most of the meal had been consumed. This post quickly garnered attention, with many users expressing their disgust and criticising the lack of cleanliness.
One user commented, “This is incredibly filthy.”
The presence of foreign objects in meals is a recurring problem that consumers hope to avoid. Social media platforms are filled with accounts of unexpected findings in food, from dirt to animal parts. Such incidents often ruin the dining experience and leave diners wary of returning.
Another user added, “I can’t believe this happened. It’s so gross.”
Restaurants strive to ensure food safety and hygiene, yet stories like these continue to surface. They serve as a reminder of the importance of maintaining strict cleanliness standards in food preparation areas. Consumers expect transparency and accountability from food establishments, especially when it concerns health and safety, reported KhaoSod.
