Cockroach in school food?

Question

so... today i was eating at a dining hall at my university ( which i pay 2,500 a semester for) and i took a bite of a piece of pie anda cockroach crawled out... i was so disgusted i put my tray away ran out and complained .. they just offered me a free meal but i don't ever want to eat there again as i threw up everything i ate that day. ... I told some of my friends and they are concerned about the dining here. since it is an extremely well known university should i make a big deal about this and complain further? i can't eat at that place anymore. i feel sick.. any advice would be great thanks

Answer 1

Look up the number for the local health department where you're at. Hopefully you have witnesses that saw the cockroach before you returned your meal. The health department should send an inspector to ensure that the university is meeting all proper food handling procedures.

Did you speak to the dining room manager? If no, you might want to do that. Talking to a server or cashier that has no management authority would be a waste of time. There may also be a process through Student Services to help you. At the very least, you may have to look at getting a refund for the balance of your semester.

Last but not least, if your parents are participating in the cost of your education, let them know right away. They may want to follow up on this disgusting incident.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Answer 3

eww

yes. of course you should. you should talk to the principal and she should talk to the people making the food.

Answer 4

take a picture of it and sue them for serving a meal with cockroach

Answer 5

Don't tell anyone you found a cockroach in your food. If you do they will all want one.

Answer 6

Take this issue further and make sure this problem is fixed. That is completely unsanitary and disgusting. If they have roaches in their final product, i can only imagine what kind of environment they are cooking in. GROSS!!

Answer 7

Eww. You should definetly complain furthur!!!!!!!! A cockroach in your food is just DISGUSTING....... i would have done the same!!!!!!

Answer 8

I wouldn't have been so hasty as to throw all your evidence away.  It's your word against theirs, now.  You can make your complaint, but it's out of your hands now.  Just don't eat there anymore.
