BASSETERRE, St. Kitts (Thursday 27th January 2022) — A young woman on St. Kitts has used social media to tell the truth about a restaurant ‘roach burger’ situation, but part of her apology which claims “I wish not to say where I got the roach” has many people further questioning what exactly took place that day. The widely debated hot topic unfolded on social media on Wednesday 26th January 2022, showing the woman captured on security camera while seated at the newly opened Truth Restaurant and Bar located at Port Zante. Before eating the burger, the woman is seen putting something in her food — judged by social media users to be a cockroach.
The woman claimed she got food poisoning from eating the insect and had to visit the hospital for treatment. Later that night, an apology video began circulating of the woman identifying herself, saying: “I will like to make a public announcement and apologise to the Truth restaurant establishment for trying to tarnish the company name. I am taking responsibility for my actions for which I am very sorry. I had no motive to do the situation; I saw it as an opportunity not to pay for the burger. I wish not to say where I got the roach but I am taking responsibility for my actions. To the public, I would like to extend my apology for bringing our society down.”
The company had issued a statement indicating: “An unfortunate situation was caught via our security system showing footage of a woman inserting a cockroach into a burger at our establishment. This was clearly a targeted attempt to tarnish Truth and our business entities. Further action will be taken and we will keep our customers updated as the matter is dealt with.” Social media users are further questioning whether other individuals are involved in the drama, given the woman’s refusal to say where the cockroach came from.
