Worm infested chocolate

From Merdeka

On Nov. 9, I and my family went shopping at GT Supermarket, on Jalan Tendean, South Jakarta. One of the shopping items was Hazelnut Milk Chocolate "Tango Bar". And as usual, when we got home, my children promptly opened it.

However, the kids were in for an unpleasant surprise when they discovered worms in the chocolate bar. When we looked at the expiry date it was Sept. 8, 1997.

We could not help but thinking that similar food items might have also been contaminated. How is it possible that such a large supermarket as GT could have made such an error?

The chocolate is made by UPALI Malaysia and bore the code SDN BHD, Persiaran Raya Muda, 40917 Shah Alam, Selayar Malaysia. It was distributed by PT Arta Boga Cemerlang, Jakarta.

If proof is necessary, we have saved the item and the bill.
