Yuks! Dead millipede all curled up in my innocent won ton mee
A traumatised STOMPer mistook this millipede for a piece of mushroom in her won ton mee bought at Food Junction in Lot One Shoppers Mall.
According to her, there were not 1, but 2 millipedes found in that plate of noodles.
Rachel says in an email to STOMP:
"At about 8.30 to 9pm on June 24, there was a disgusting find in a plate of innocent-looking won ton mee bought from the Hong Kong Cuisine food stall at Food Junction (level 4) in Lot One Shoppers Mall.
"A curled up, tough and black millipede was found within the stack of vegetables below the noodles.
"It was tough, so it could easily be mistaken for a broken piece of mushroom.
"With closer scrutiny, there were actually 2 pieces of such find.
"1 of them was hysterically flicked onto the tray (not shown on this picture).
"Can anyone imagine the trauma of having tasted this thing, thinking it was a mushroom?
"After confronting the Food Junction management, Danny, he could only apologise but refused to divulge more information on his manager's full name and claimed that he was overseas.
"With the recent rojak incident that had caused fatality cases, there were heightened awareness on the need for more stringent cleanliness over food handling.
"Does Food Junction also regulate their food stalls' cleanliness and constantly remind their stall holders to maintain their food hygiene?
"Or has the recent shift in focus to H1N1 caused complacency in food stall owners and food court management?
"I cannot imagine what happened to the sauce whereby this millipede was cooked in, consumed by many other unsuspecting customers of this stall, attracted by the 'Today Special, Won ton Mee' offer."
