Malaysian restaurants caught on camera practicing poor hygiene

A few months ago, we saw a fast-food employee drying a mop under the light of the french fry warmer.

It was disgusting and violated several food establishment health and safety standards. Health and safety rules are crucial to the operation of an establishment that serves and cooks food.

The restaurant was a McDonald’s in Australia. This time, three restaurants located in Malaysia came into the spotlight after people shared videos of employees doing the unthinkable in terms of health and safety practices.

A worker is seen washing a large pot with a broom in a video. The video was posted on social media and caused an uproar in the community.

The incident is being investigated and if there is evidence of misconduct, action will be taken to correct these unsanitary practices.

Another video showed an employee kissing pretzel dough at an Aunty Anne’s store in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The store has since terminated the employee’s contract and subsequently closed the store for a thorough disinfection.

And the third video was just as disgusting, if not the worst of the three. A street vendor was filmed washing a large wok in drained water.
