M’sian Finds Cockroach Eggs In His Rice At Sepang Mamak, Warns Netizens To Check Food Before Eating

Mamaks are a Malaysian staple because they’re the only places that can offer great food at insanely cheap prices 24/7. No fancy 5-star restaurant could ever make roti canai or maggi like the abangs at the mamak can. Nonetheless, these eateries are not exactly known for making the most hygienic food.

A netizen, who goes by the name of Jamal Firdaus, recently took to Facebook to share his experience of finding cockroach eggs in his fried rice when he was having a meal with his wife at Restoran Thoulath Maju, Sepang.

“Be careful to those who eat here or even at other mamaks. Check your dishes first. Don’t be like me. I only noticed after finishing my rice.”

Jamal went on to share how he usually goes to the mamak for their fried chicken but this time, he only went to accompany his wife. After eating about half of her meal, she asked her husband to help her finish the rest, and that’s when he noticed the horrendous sight before him. The netizen even attached a video of him breaking open one of the cockroach eggs on his near empty plate to show other Facebook users that he wasn’t joking!

He ended his post by advising netizens to be careful where they eat, you never think it will happen to you until it does:

“So, be careful to all of you who like to eat at the mamak. It doesn’t matter where the mamak is. Mamak is everywhere. Make sure that there are no strange ingredients in your food. It may be just cockroach eggs today but tomorrow it could be a baby cockroach, mommy cockroach and daddy cockroach next!”

Disgusting. As much as we love mamaks, we should always be mindful of what we put into our bodies, guys!
