Shopper finds eggs crawling with maggots at supermarket
-
Hmm speaking of this, my uncle came to my room that one night and complained to me about 'worms in eggs'.
Then I smelt the stench and the smell is just so horrible. >__>
I shut my door immediately and sprayed perfume all over my room. >__<
But eggs like that in supermarkets? EWWW. What happened to the standard? -

Pfft! They blame their customers! People don't inspect eggs the way they do with fruit. They could've been broken during transportation or when they're handled by the store assistants.

If you realise, not all fruits sold at SuperMarket or Market are ripe. So it's not a fair comparison.Originally posted by LinYu:they also sells water melons that are not ripe although they are priced cheaper

I've bought rotting century eggs before as well. But there's no stench till I opened the packaging. Was given full refund.Originally posted by Kuali Baba:Pfft! They blame their customers!

However, I do like to highlight that there's a possibility that these eggs are broken by the consumers themselves un-noticed. -
It's not fair to rule out mistakes by the people handling the foodstuff before the consumer buys it, as they have with their reply.
If it's the top/front few cartons which had the rotten eggs, fine. But what if they're also in the lower ones?Originally posted by photo_seeker:I've bought rotting century eggs before as well. But there's no stench till I opened the packaging. Was given full refund.

I agree and I personally witness some inconsiderate customers's behavior. When they decided not to buy that particular item, instead of taking it back to the right section or the least bring it to the cashier and telling them don't need it anymore, they just leave it wherever they came upon. So sometimes you see raw products like the seafood or meat IN THE detergent section (If they walked by there) or worse in the diapers department. So, yes I do blame the customers.Originally posted by photo_seeker:I've bought rotting century eggs before as well. But there's no stench till I opened the packaging. Was given full refund.

A supermarket could only do so much. Everyone has a role to play whether the customers or the supermarket. Keyword - BE CONSIDERATE! AND DO YOUR PART! -
If you see how NTUC FP staff handles the fruits or other goods, you know what I'm talking abt

NTUC blamed customers for broken /rotting eggs.. but the New Paper reporter found some rotting eggs deep in the stack ...
Somethin' smells funny and it ain't the eggs.. -
NTUC standard really drop alot.... things ain't dat cheap n fresh any more. if u wanna cheap n fresh, i suggest u go Giant or Sheng Shiong. further more, u dun see staffs standing ard or being alert in NTUC. but in Giant, the stffs r very alert n they even choose the eggs for u IF dey have the time, that is. but most of the time, they stand there is to watch lor. esp the eggs stacks. ive seen 1 lady, shld be ard early 30s, felt digusted by eggs (WTF?) n they way she held the tray os eggs is like dey gonna bite her or smtng... consumers lke her, or some other auntie who practically throw the trays while choosing r bound to break those poor eggs.
everyone shld do their part n i feel dat Ms Malinee is wrong to push the blame to consumers totally. -
always check yr eggs before paying..

SINGAPORE SHOULD ENCOURAGE TORT!! Sueing NTUC should be interesting..

then just eat fried maggot eggs...
hahaha -
Yah right. Maggots are full of proteins...Originally posted by TaeWoon:then just eat fried maggot eggs... hahaha -
Maggots are hatchlings.
An insect lay eggs, and these hatch into maggots.
When did the insect (fly?) lay eggs in the eggs?
What insect can lay eggs through the shell of chicken eggs?
Did an insect lay eggs on broken eggs, or some other food?
When? It take time for the insect eggs to hatch.
Who broke the eggs, spill food?
The contamination from the supermart, suppliers or shoppers dirty hands?
Did staff, customer do a sabo?
Got anyone not happy?
You don't watch CSI ah? -
You mean Medi-Ya supermarket?Originally posted by [email protected]:i buy my japanese egg 4 pcs at S$9.50. air flown at liang court 'Clarke Quay'

-
Mine was the NTUC generic brand.The version that came in 30's paper trays.Very limited protection for these trays version unlike those that come in those hard plastic containers.

Elitist run organization. Of course we should expect an elitist answer.Originally posted by spinsugar:NTUC blamed customers for broken /rotting eggs.. but the New Paper reporter found some rotting eggs deep in the stack ...

Once at Sheng Siong, I bought a bunch of groceries and forgot a bag. I gone back the next day and ask if they had found my bag and they had been very honest. They kept it for me and return to me. I doubt checked, its the exact items I picked. There is no doubt who I support.
If it were NTUC, the staff will blame me for being forgetful and to just buy another bag or groceries. -

Hmmm so far I have been buying Seng Choon farm eggs with no problems and I hope it stays that way ><
