Upon receiving our salad, we observed suspicious small black specks on the plate. Within moments, we were compelled to rush first to the staff, and subsequently, directly to the emergency room.

It was supposed to be the perfect romantic evening: a quiet dinner for a young couple at a trendy, centrally located restaurant. But their cozy night quickly became a nightmare, thanks to a sickening, unexpected discovery in one of their dishes.

The boyfriend ordered the avocado and quinoa salad. Everything was serene: the plating was beautiful, the music soft, and the lighting dim. Then, his gaze froze.

“He stared at me with fear in his eyes and asked, ‘Do you see that?'” the woman recalled. On the surface of the salad were small, black dots. At first, they dismissed them as harmless chia seeds. But then the dots moved.

“They were like small, jelly-like balls with a dark spot in the middle. They were alive,” she said. It was immediately clear they were insect eggs. And they were in the middle of their meal.

Panic erupted. The woman screamed, waiters scrambled, and the horrified couple called an ambulance. “We had no idea what kind of eggs they were, or if we had already eaten some.”

The man quickly felt nauseous and weak. Both were rushed to the hospital for examination, treatment, and medication. “We just wanted a quiet dinner.

Now we’ll never be able to look at salad the same way again.” Doctors instructed them to be vigilant and contact medical staff immediately if any unusual symptoms appeared.

The couple immediately filed an official complaint against the restaurant. While the establishment cited “technical errors” and “delivery problems,” the couple’s trust is shattered. “Since then, I get chills every time I see chia seeds,” the woman admitted.
