Fat, hair and insects: a tiktoker analyzed street food under a microscope

Many people who have very short hours of rest or even to eat, choose to buy food on the street. And it is that in addition to being fast, they are very tasty. However, do they respect hygiene standards during their manufacture and marketing?

A tiktoker began to analyze the fast food restaurants they sell on the streets and what he found there left his supporters in awe. The account of TIC Tac @micro_terra decided to test these foods under a microscope, and the nasty surprises he found went viral.

“As street tacos are hygienic and even seeing that, I think we won’t stop eating them,” the young man said in the clip that toured the network.

On this occasion, the boy decided to analyze some taquitos street under the eye of the microscope, and what he found probably didn’t make anyone want to eat them anymore. And is that as can be seen in the viralized video, he found a lot of fat, hair and even another part of the body of an insect.

“The most common thing we can find is a lot of fat, and of course, a strand of hair!“, We hear the young man at the beginning of the clip. In addition, when analyzing the sauce, he expressed that he had found what could be the leg of an insect. Undoubtedly something which, knowing that it is in our food, would make us not eat it.

“I checked the sauce drip until I found this: it’s the leg of an insect, probably a fly,” we heard in the video.
