In today's world, paying attention to what we consume is more important than ever. For one unfortunate individual, this became disturbingly clear when she discovered pieces of a rat inside her loaf of bread.
Sliced in the slices
Facebook user Nombulelo Mkumla was traumatised and disgusted after she saw pieces of the rodent in a few slices of her SASKO Low GI Seeded Whole Wheat Brown bread she purchased from Spar on 27 August.
She noted in her social media post:
"On the morning of 31 August, I took the bread out of the fridge to make toast and noticed something disgusting and scary. I took a picture and sent it to my friends, and one of them said, 'Yi mpuku leyo tshomi' (That's a rat friend).
"I was in denial and suggested it might be something else, but the rat scenario made sense. It's possible the rat got into the bread at the factory, and no one noticed."
Nombulelo stated that she went to Spar, which advised her to contact their supplier, Pioneer Foods. She received a response from them on 2 September. However, they allegedly marked the incident as a case of the bread having mould.
The woman also noted on 7 September, someone from SASKO called her and apologised for what she experienced, but she felt angry when the person allegedly said the following:
"It shouldn't have happened, but you must understand that it gets hot where we bake our products, so things like this are bound to happen.
"Yes, I admit that your bread had a mouse or a rat. We are putting measures in place to prevent this from happening again. Don't worry, it won't affect you healthwise."
Since posting her experience on Facebook, Nombulelo's video received over 3 000 shares, even reaching other social media platforms.
