Sometimes eating out is considered one of the most simple yet enjoyable activities one can do. However, sometimes when we encounter unhygienic food it absolutely destroys the day.
A netizen bought a bowl of soup from harbourfront and he felt that the soup had a “foul smell”. While he was eating he managed to pull out a strand of curly hair from his mouth.
Here is what the netizen says:
“I’m super disgusted! When I thought to myself why does the soup has a foul smell.. this strand of hair came right out of my mouth!! My lunch is now ruined. TheSoupSpoon HR#thesoupspoon Outlet: HBF”
Why is food hygiene important?
NEA and AVA advise all food operators and consumers to practise good food and personal hygiene. Safe preparation and handling of food will help minimise the risk of food poisoning incidents.
Food retail operations that failed to comply with hygiene regulations may face a fine or even suspension of licences.
Consumers play an important part in ensuring food safety.
