A Nigerian lady was left devastated after she made a shocking discovery in a meal she ordered online—a maggot was found crawling inside the food, just as she was about to eat it.
The unfortunate incident was captured in a video which she later posted on her TikTok page, drawing widespread attention and concern from viewers.
In the viral video, the lady's voice could be heard filled with shock, frustration, and sadness as she narrated her experience.
According to her, she was extremely hungry and had placed the order from a food vendor through an online delivery platform. However, just as she was about to take her first bite, she noticed something unusual and found the maggot inside the food.
She revealed that she had ordered the same dish from the same platform multiple times in the past without any issues, which made this particular incident even more painful and unexpected.
In the clip, she expressed her distress, saying: “I’m actually so pained. I don’t know how to feel right now. I ordered and it was delivered to me. I was so hungry—I wanted to just put the spoon inside and start eating it.”
She continued, “What if it was at night? Look at maggot in the food—hot food. Look at maggot. Oh my God.”
The post quickly sparked mixed reactions across social media, as users flooded the comment section with opinions, questions, and personal experiences related to online food orders.
