Newborn Rat Found in Takeout Meal Sparks Outrage in Hong Kong

Nauseating video shows a newborn rat squirming around a woman’s lunch from a restaurant in Hong Kong — which is now being investigated by local health authorities.

The pink, hairless, alien-like creature, whose eyes were still not fully opened, could be seen wiggling its little arms and legs and seemingly struggling to breathe inside of a takeaway container from the Wa Jer Restaurant, the repulsive footage shows.

The customer ordered the $5.40 beef rice noodle meal on Monday, and after seeing the baby rat writhing in her satay sauce, immediately filed a complaint with the local Food and Environmental Hygiene Department, the South China Morning Post reported.
