Disturbing footage has emerged showing a fast food worker spitting on a customer's burger before packing it, raising serious concerns about food hygiene standards.
The video, which has gone viral, captures the employee deliberately leaning over the food and spitting onto it before sealing the takeaway container. The incident reportedly took place at an unnamed fast food outlet in the UK.
Public Outrage Over Hygiene Breach
Viewers have expressed disgust at the worker's actions, with many calling for immediate disciplinary action. Food safety experts warn that such behaviour poses significant health risks to consumers.
Restaurant Industry Reacts
Industry representatives have condemned the incident, stating it undermines public trust in food establishments. "This is completely unacceptable and does not represent the high standards maintained by the vast majority of food businesses," said a spokesperson for the UK Hospitality Association.
What Customers Should Watch For
