It seems like we need to be more and more careful and examine the food we are eating before we actually put the food into our mouths.
This eagle-eyed customer spotted something white and suspicious-looking in her kimchi one fine day.
What could it be?
Woman Complains About White Stuff in Her Food
Ms Wu Hui Yi (Hanyu pinyin), a 23-year-old factory worker, was eating at Tori Shokudo when she discovered something suspicious in her food.
Speaking to Shin Min, she revealed that she was having dinner with her boyfriend on 18 April 2023 in the evening when she discovered that the kimchi (picked cabbage side dish) served to her had a lump of white on it.
Upon examining it closely, she suspected that it was insect eggs. By then, she had already eaten a piece of kimchi.
Her boyfriend then went to alert the manager of the store, and when the kimchi was sent back to the kitchen for examination, a fresh plate of kimchi was served to Ms Wu.
However, due to the couple’s suspicion that the lump of white was insect eggs, they did not dare to consume the replacement kimchi and hurriedly left the kitchen after paying for their food.
In case you’re curious, the Tori Shokudo outlet in question is located on the second floor of Northpoint City.

Restaurant Responds That White Stuff Is Actually Vegetable Roots
It turns out that the “white stuff” discovered by Ms Wu was actually the root of some vegetables.
Or at least, that is the official response by the manager Ah Fu Da (Hanyu pinyin), a 36-year-old who works at the place.
Responding to queries from Shin Min, the manager reveals that the chef’s response upon seeing the returned kimchi dish was that it was the root of the vegetable and could be eaten. It was also mentioned that such occurrences were normal.
By the time the manager left the kitchen, the couple had already paid and hurriedly left the restaurant, so she did not get the chance to explain the situation to them.
According to the manager, the kimchi was supplied by a vendor, and the kitchen was only responsible for cutting vegetables.
Finding unwanted creatures in your food is not an uncommon occurrence in Singapore. Earlier this week, a TikTok user (@ziweeei_) posted a clip of what looked like a caterpillar in her cai png (mixed vegetable rice or economy rice).
There have also been instances where live parasites were found in raw sashimi.
Do you think the “white stuff” is actually a vegetable root or yet another instance of “additional ingredients” in our food?
