Thai cake shop in controversy for gecko surprise
A Facebook user recently shared a dramatic post, showing a chocolate cake with a gecko inside. The post, which quickly went viral, included a caption expressing disgust and confusion about how the gecko ended up in the cake.
The user mentioned feeling nauseous after eating half the cake and only discovering the gecko when using a spoon to inspect the filling. The post sparked an uproar, with many questioning the credibility of the claim, especially focusing on the gecko itself. The original post has since been deleted.
Following the uproar, the cake shop owner posted a clarification in the same group. The owner stated that the cake was not purchased directly from their shop but through a representative. They emphasised that their shop is investigating the matter and collecting evidence to file a lawsuit.
The owner also humorously noted that if they were to bake chicken instead of a gecko, they would use real chicken meat because they couldn’t handle a gecko.
The customer initially demanded compensation for the distress and damages. The shop owner agreed to provide compensation willingly. However, the situation took a strange turn when the customer mentioned going to the doctor and was asked for a receipt.
The customer then claimed they were waiting for a check-up but later said they would no longer be seeing the doctor, citing concerns that the shop owner might not cover the medical expenses. This left the shop owner perplexed, reported KhaoSod.
The incident has garnered widespread attention, with many social media users speculating about the authenticity of the customer’s claim. Some questioned how a gecko could have ended up in a cake, while others suggested that the customer might have placed the gecko there themselves to demand compensation. The debate continues to rage online, with opinions divided on who is at fault.
