Subway customer allegedly served faeces smeared sandwich

Earlier this week questions about food safety and pest control in fast-food restaurants came up with one customer spotting a rat's tail in a KFC while another customer complained about finding mouse poo in her McDonald’s meal box. Unfortunately, Subway has now joined the list of fast-food restaurants to be hit with similar complaints this week, but this time, the allegations are even worse than you can imagine.

As reported by Mashed, a woman from Lansing, Michigan took to her TikTok account to recount the horrifying experience she had with her Subway sandwich where she alleges that she discovered faeces smeared on her Subway wrapper.

Subway’s allegedly contaminated sandwich

The woman who goes by the handle @kelscoin, shared her experience on her TikTok in a video which by now has amassed more than 2 million views. She captioned her video,

don’t eat at @subway on grand river in wast lansing Michigan

In her video she recounts how she embarrassed is by the whole situation. She went to a Subway restaurant for her food and ended up having a "kinda weird interaction" but got her food and proceeded to her car when she thought the parking lot smelled like sewage.

She went home and took a bite of her sandwich and smelt the exact foul smell. She inspected the sandwich to see that there was faeces smeared in the wrapper.

There is feces. We’re not sure if it’s dog, or if it’s human.

The police took a swab of it and public health is working on it and trying to figure it out.

Reactions to the video

Food safety violation is a serious issue and most of the commenters also highlighted the risks of coming into contact with contaminated food. One comment stated,

Keep track of your physical symptoms every day. Be specific. Write down everything that happened, every detail. I’m sorry this happened to you.

Another person advised,

Please go get a checkup or have tests done. Just in case. I’d definitely have a lawyers lined up so they have to pay for anything doctors appointments

The woman informed Subway about the matter but the fast-food chain has not got back to her with a response yet. She said,

My biggest thing is the corporation ... I don't understand how they couldn't address it, like reach out to me ... I've heard absolutely nothing from anybody.
