Recently, food safety-related incidents have been exposed one after another by major brands, which has made many consumers deeply worried about the hygiene conditions of existing drinks. Yesterday, Zhongshi News reported that a customer posted a post on the social platform saying that he had drunk an obvious foreign body in his Starbucks drink and spit it out to find a big fly.

According to the customer, she bought an iced sesame matcha latte at 16:46 on the 20th at a local Starbucks store in Taiwan, China. When she drank the last sip of the drink at 23:25 in the evening, she was surprised to find it tasted strange and seemed "prickly." So he hurriedly spit out the foreign body he drank, and found that it was a fly the size of a little finger, and even several dead maggots ran out of his inadvertently bitten belly.

The female customer said that she had nausea, vomiting and diarrhea after finding a fly. She still felt uncomfortable in her stomach and esophagus at 01:29, so she went to the emergency department of the hospital and was diagnosed with acute gastroenteritis by doctors.

This "horrible" experience made the consumer not only deeply worried about the environmental hygiene of the store, but also angry with employees for carelessly treating customers' drinks. The guest said that he was afraid of insects and felt sick when he drank a fly in the drink, and his hands and feet trembled unconsciously, and then went to the hospital for treatment. After a lot of trouble, he completely lost confidence in the brand and said bluntly that he would never dare to spend here again in his lifetime.

The post caused a heated discussion on social platforms, and many netizens were shocked by the emergence of flies in drinks from well-known chain brands.

Starbucks officials also responded quickly when they learned of the incident, saying that they had immediately got to know the store and tried to get in touch with customers. In addition, officials said that the stores are regularly cleaned and disinfected, and the production of the staff is in line with the standard process, but the stores concerned have not received any complaints from consumers.

The incident also attracted the attention of the Food Safety Department in Taichung, Taiwan, who said that according to the guidelines for good food hygiene practices, effective measures should be taken during food production to prevent foreign bodies from mixing into the video. In response to the situation reflected by the public, they will send staff to the Starbucks store to inspect.

If it is found that there are unqualified items in the store, the store will be required to rectify within a time limit and will be reviewed. If they are still unqualified, they may be fined more than 60,000 yuan and less than 200 million yuan according to law.

The staff also reminded the general public that if they have doubts and concerns about the hygiene of the restaurant owners, they can issue relevant certificates to the regulatory authorities, and the staff will record the case in accordance with the facts and quickly comply with the rules and regulations.

In addition, the staff of the Ministry of Health and Welfare said that if they eat live animals, what they are most worried about is gastroenteritis caused by their pathogens. If they have symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and abdominal cramps, they should seek medical attention in time. As for the question asked by some netizens, "what if you eat eggs or maggots?" will it multiply in the body? "the staff member said that the human stomach will absorb and digest these proteins, so there is no need to worry.
