Compressed Pork...seriously the cockroach is the least of your worries if you eat that s.it ;-)

...this psycho mentality of defending the guilty party has got to stop....

 

...fess up...own up....move on....

 

....or nothing will ever change...let alone get better.......

 

...seems like 200-300-400 year old savage laws prevail....

 

...insane......

 

...not civilized.....barbaric......

I think if I found that beast in a tin of pork I would of taken the pork back to the factory and demanded 50,000B to keep quiet and go away. I would not bother them again as I might disappear one night and end up getting processed myself.

Buying fried bugs by the kilogram is not a problem; processed pork meat in all sorts of forms (balls, sausages, slabs and sheets) also not a problem - welcome to Thailand!

Delete the entire internet as this story might put a bad light on tourism and arrest the person reporting the story for 15'000 years. Ha ha ha ha! 

As the taste of a cockroach is closer to chicken than pork, maybe that was the problem.

The difference is your mindset to compensate and the Thai mindset to sue for making you lose face or business regardless the fault lies at your doorstep  

 

Exactly.

I found a live cockroach inside the sealed package of a CP fishberger we purchased at 7/11 once. Sucker was still alive even after being nuked in the microwave. Never bought one since...

A smart person would have gone to the company, quietly, discussed the problem, and would have probably emerged with free pork for life :)

 

Maybe, maybe not might well have ended up in the next batch.....

Excellent..report it...that\s what I love about social media..the gov't and mainstream media cannot put it under the rug.

Yep finding that in my food would make me cough my cookies. I hate those critters.

Manao was later contacted by someone asking her to delete the picture as it could cause damage to the reputation of the company.

Which company? It's not been named, at least in the English translation. Suffice to say they should think themselves lucky they have the Thai version of defamation law to hide behind. Any country of first-world ranking, and they would be looking at paying substantial damages, and the distinct possibility of bankruptcy.

This is not a first world (or second world?) country!

 

"Responsibility" is not in Thai language? or culture?

Compared to many things I have seen Thais eat this does no look too bad.

Just reading this was enough to make me sick.

The cockroach came from Burma, no Thai cockroach would ever do such a thing

Hi sanemax, talking about Burma have you all ever smell the fermented fish in Burma? In the market place there is big wooden tub with fermented fish in it. Go smell it then you would prefer to eat the cockroach. And when they cook it the smell linger on in the house for days on end.

No wonder they have such bad body odor. This smell came out of their sweat pores don't they?

Next task - send the "processed pork " to a laboratory for analysis.

Interesting to see a list of the other ingredients  (apart from beetle).

My guess is the thought of that analysis being made public would have the manufacturer's on their knees.

Should have kept quiet. Now everybody want one!

you have the privilege to pay for crispy 'roaches , spiders, scorpions and snake from rural markets

 

I pity the poor Sue the cockroach never lived to see herself appreciated

LMFAO. Best comment I've read online this month. Still laughing. :)

Normally the cockroach has already been blended into the meat , as in most food in Thailand, you just don't know what you're eating.  I found parts of a cockroach in a Big C bread a couple of years ago .

Don't really see why you say that, if I was an owner or an employee of the company,  I too would want it taken down. No customers, no company, no company no work. I would certainly offer to compensate her to take it down as well. 

 

agree but if a company can continue to pursue for defamation even a human rights activist who disclosed modern day slavery what can you expect from a food company and a cockroach.

<snip>....  As a high school kid I worked in a sausage factory in school holidays. Put me off such processed foods for life.

 

That on it's own may have added decades back to your life.  Hard to measure but my feeling is it was an excellent experience done early enough.
