She was taken aback by how tasty the meal was and said that it should have been worth more than R5. People in the comments weren't buying it however and many jokingly asked if she was still alive.

"People must stop acting like those R5 meals from ShopRite don't help a lot of people. I see a lot of car guards, homeless kids and also the average person buying those meals. Nothing wrong with it."
