Cockroach sandwich

Here is one thing we can do without: a cockroach sandwich.

I can imagine what my grandmother would do if she had found a cockroach among the sliced bread. She would throw a fit. And then she'd throw up. And then we'd have to clean after her.

But that's what this couple - Mohd Rafi Mohd Kamal and his wife - found among their loaf of sliced bread A dead cockroach sandwiched inbetween the slices. How gross. How utterly unhygenic. And in typical fashion, the first response by the manufacturer was to try and brush off the complaint.

Rafi said that the company asked him to send the bread to them so they could conduct tests and investigate the matter. But he refused because he wanted the tests to be done by a neutral party. He submitted the bread to the Negri Sembilan health department for testing and then lodged a police report.

Now, which bread company could this be? According to the New Straits Times, the same company had its Nilai facility temporarily closed down last year because it was unhygienic. Let's not say anything much and wait for the authorities to identify the culprit!
