Woman Receives Fried Towel Instead of Fried Chicken

A Philippines woman was shocked to receive a fried towel instead of the Fried chicken she had ordered from a popular fast food chain in the country. Alec Perez said she was disgusted after finding out that her Jollibee fried “chicken” was actually just a hand towel.

Ms. Perez shared photos and a video of the inedible meal on Facebook, where they went viral. She said she had ordered a Chicken Joy for her son from the Jollibee outlet in Metro Manila, but upon receiving the food, she found the chicken very difficult to slice.

“Jollibee has been delivered via grab. Ordered chicken for my son, while I was trying to get him a bite, I found it super hard to even slice. Tried opening it up with my hands and to my surprise [it was] a deep fried towel,” she wrote on Facebook. “This is really disturbing… How the hell do you get the towel in the batter and even fry it?” she questioned, adding that the discovery was a disgusting one. 

On Tuesday, She shared that video on social media has gone viral with over 2.8 million views. It shows her picking up the ‘chicken’ – only to discover it was batter-fried towel.

Her post has racked up over thousands of shocked comments and 88,000 ‘shares’.

A commenter wrote”The batter must have been contaminated too when that towel was breaded. We will never know who got those potentially contaminated chickenjoys that day!” Another commentor wrote… “That’s disgusting. Good luck to those who ordered chicken that day,”
