A consumer who almost swallowed a pepper without knowing that there was a caterpillar in the pepper complained to the producer, who responded saying it was a natural phenomenon.
Mr. A, who lives in Seoul, said that on the 17th, he saw a black object in the pepper while eating a pepper he bought at a shopping mall.
Strangely, when I tore the pepper and opened it, it was said that there were live caterpillars.
The chili peppers we purchased were sugar-capped peppers that were popular among diabetic patients.
Afterwards, Mr. A called the producer and complained, but when he heard that he was trying to make a minor issue an issue instead of an apology, he was angry and quarreled.
Regarding this, the representative of the pepper production farm said, 'The larvae of peppers are a very natural phenomenon, and there has never been a problem like this one'.
He added, 'Even if the consumer chews the larvae in the pepper, there is no separate compensation plan.'
