Blackmirage2013 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I hope this incident does not set off a wave of Thais planting insects and rodent crap in fast foods.... You know how good Thais are at doing dishonest things like this and then putting on their innocent face and lying right in front of you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJIC Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Is it McDonald's that filed the Police complain or McThai who bought a 48 Restaurant chain Francise from McDonalds under the name McThai? http://www.nationmultimedia.com/business/The-secrets-of-McThai-s-success-30109418.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackh Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 First, I am NO defender of McD's crap (food). However the facts seem to be very much against this complainer. First, she is Thai, better than 90% chance she is lying and scamming. Then who the hell retains a receipt for a 36 B ice cream? And on top of which only returns 2 hours later to "claim" the roach lie. I would have told her if I knew there was a roach in there, it would have added 10B more to the ice cream. She got a bargain. And no, I would not have replaced it for her. I hope McD's goes after this one big time. Counter sue her for liable, defamation, fraud. Hit her in the bullocks!

renaissanc Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I think that the shop should have paid for the sundae so that the complaint did not go viral, even though it is quite possible that the customer was lieing. Food costs are usually about 30% at most, but the potential loss of business from a viral complaint is far more. Just look at what the videos "United Airlines Breaks Guitars 1, 2 and 3" did to United Airlines' business when all the customer was asking for was a repair costing US$1,200.

samjaidee Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 what do you expect with junk food anyway .... Starving folk around the world will live a long life eating "your junk" food........... No they will not. His junk food, as you put it, will not be available to the starving folk around the world for two reasons; lack of availability in the areas where there are starving folk and even when available these starving folk wouldn't be able to afford junk food of this nature anyway.

tubby johnson Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 About 4 years ago I had a bunch of tiny cockroaches floating in my hot coffee at McDonalds' Central Ladprao branch. Ghastly! I asked them to clean the machine properly and give me a new cup. Whilst waiting, I noticed that the floor looked greasy and filthy. I haven't been back since.

atyclb Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Maybe she took the ice-cream to the toilet. That`s normal in Thailand, eating in the toilet is as normal as not cleaning your hand after a visit to toilet. I`ve seen hundreds of times they are eating in the toilet. Mai pen rai. eating in the toilet is kingdom multitasking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotorbreeze Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 what do you expect with junk food anyway .... Not sure that a 100% beef is used in hamburgers, note heard some "home bread worms" are cultivated and used in some of the hamburger for protein or horse meat blended into the beef. At any rate McDonalds has the money for lawyers and will never pay out on any case... if settlement happens it will be a silent one. Would not say junk food..seem Mc D has cleaned up their act in providing a different selection of choices in food...it is the customer's choice for "heart disease Food" or go green in salads provided. Exercise your choice, eat out or eat at home...I prefer the later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeamchabangLarry Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) The spout on those machines isn't big enough to dispense a cockroach. It must have been added post-dispensing (either by the server or customer, this remains to be known).Good point about the machine.My theory: She bought the ice cream, and took it into the theater, ate it and enjoyed it. She set the container on the floor beside her seat when she was done with it. Two hours later when the movie is over, she picks up the container to take it to the trash and finds that the bug has crawled into the container to feast on the sticky leavings in it. You gotta figure that the average cool dark Thailand movie theater is heaven for cockroaches feasting on dropped popcorn kernels, spilled drinks etc. She freaks out and rushes back to McD's after the movie to complain; after all she was eating it in a dark theater and might well believe the bug was there in the first place because she didn't see it until she walked out to the brightly lit theater foyer. The only flaw in my theory is a Thai person picking up the empty fast food container to put it in the trash. No Thai ever does that. Your supposition sounds good until the "pick it up to take it to the trash" part not yo be a jerk, but over 90% of locals do not even think about this Edited March 13, 2014 by LeamchabangLarry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zodaka Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Roaches are often abundant in Thai movie theaters. People drop lots of crumbs and foods and the maids don't usually sweep up until the next morning the cockroaches have the whole night to eat away and reproduce. The worst was the theatre in Siam that the red shirts burnt down. The old porn movies were also pretty bad eating away at old spunk but most of those venues have shut their doors, sadly.

stoli Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Coming soon. McRoach. This could have gone a lot further if they had not used skin-on fries in the picture. McDonalds does not use skin-on fries. Wish they did. Naw, on second thought, I am glad they don't. I never want to go there, thank goodness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barsie Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I think the best point so far is that you couldn't get a cockroach through the nozzle. Makes whole thing impossible. Mcdonalds probably has some of highest food standards in Thailand with it being westernised and a franchise. Highly sucpicious for any thai to complain about such a thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
