ALOR SETAR, Jan 7 (Bernama) — An eatery owner in Langgar town, near here, was shocked to see what she claimed was a dead house lizard in a bottle of sauce which was to be used for cooking on Wednesday.
Nor Hashima Mohd Noor, 29, said the dead lizard was noticed by her worker, Nor Hayati Abu Hassan, 25, who wanted to use the sauce to cook Mee Bandung for a customer.
“When my worker was pouring out the sauce which I had just bought from a nearby sundry shop into a bowl, she saw something whitish with a tail but did not think it was a house lizard.
“But when my friend and I looked at it closely, we were shocked to find that it was a dead lizard,” said Nor Hashima, adding that she tried to contact the manufacturer’s telephone number printed on the label but failed.
She said she also reported the discovery to the Kedah Consumers Association and was now awaiting the result of its investigation.
Nor Hashima said she had been operating her eatery for almost 10 years now and had been using the sauce, but this was the first time that she made such a discovery.
