IMAGINE fasting all day, eagerly opening your food for iftar—only to find not one, but two dead cockroaches in your meal.
That was the shocking experience of @n.nadiaaaaaaaaa, who was horrified by the unexpected ‘extra protein’ in her dish.
In a brief seven-second TikTok video, she shared that she had purchased ayam masak kicap from a Ramadan bazaar.
To her disgust, two whole cockroaches were found in the dish, coated in dark soy sauce and at the corner of her packet.
“Maybe the roaches were dancing and accidentally slipped into the wok,” she joked.
