That's the problem with these unscrupulous traders. They would do anything to make an extra ringgit, to the extent of intentionally hurting their customers who didn't know better. However, what they don't know is what goes around comes around.Quote:

I have heard stories but have never caught a hawker red handed nor seen any photo depicting that dastardly act. Have you? Anyone?Quote:

Think that these side walk traders are unscrupulous?? You aint see nothing yet as compared to those big swanky multinationals corporations what they put in the things you eat and drink everyday. And highly defended by neck-tie executives, legal and lobbyists to say it is safe enough to consume though it has potential chemical deadly side effects like what they put in artificial flavorings, colorings and preservatives. And it was been documented that these corporations even put MSG into baby foods.:eek:

These are from the CAP and much more fro the sites and others worldwide net.........
Believe me if you can though I unable to furnish with photos or links - where I had seen a trader who sprayed Ridsect into the rambutans he was selling from his truck. No ants near his juicy sweet rambutans. Just imagine those who dun peel off the skins with thier hands where they would sink thier teeth to pry open !:eek:Quote:

In the case of the plastic straw in cooking oil, that is quite worrying. Wonder what the Ministry of Health is doing. Isn't it their job to ensure all is good? It is as simple as taking a sample of suspect's oil to the lab for analysis. Simple and fast. Not rocket science.Quote:

Not hawker, but I am willing to bet with you banana or teh tarik that reduced prices of one of the following - veggies which has gone from green to black, chickens which from yellow gone greenish, Steaks has gone from reddish to pinkish, fishes that smelled not fishy but oxided at the major Pesco supermarkets almost everyday. Guess who buy it and cook? to proof it, you got to follow the buyers all the way to his joint and waited for him to marinate with some curry powder and poppy seeds to make tenderising and appertizing nasi kandar which were served to humans or pussy cats. Meow or Mau?Quote:

Curious. Anyone still into drinking milk or have you moved on since primary school? :p
Goodnight.
Once upon a time after the infamous loh see fun poisoning which killed consumers, my hawker at my coffeeshop complained about his noodles where he had to throw away after a day as it was supplied without traces of boric acid. After a week, it is back to normal with preservatives. Could last 3 hari sapai 5 hari kalau tak habis.Quote:

After that, nothing happens and that was that with the stale news.
Until and when accidents happened like the latest landslide at Ampang or the Shah Alam bungalow which runtuh and killed workers then only fingers started to point guidelines were not followed up. After that, diam diam without knowing who gets prosecuted for not complying with the lesen and rules of the game. It has been said - Bolehlander cepat lupa after a day or two. It is a bolehlander mentality of tutup mata. Amazing but true. Not biology science either.
