Just today, when my Filipino's friend and I had a lunch at Economics Faculty--yes, it is in UGM--I went through unpleasant thing. We ordered food, soto and bakso, with drinks and some cookies. Suddenly, I noticed some maggots floating in the soup. I was so certain since I smelled rotten flour of the noodle. I put it aside in the tray, and decided to continue eating when I found still another maggot, so I just became frowned and stopped eating. What is going on here? Disgusting! I was not bothered much of the rotten smell more than seeing some maggots floating in my soup, what more will I find inside the noodle? Yucky! I DONT eat maggot, sure thing! Seeing me, my friend helped me telling the cafeteria lady, but as everyone might think, she refused to admit that IT IS maggot. She insisted that it was only the spices, not more than spices or something else that's not harmful, so NO WORRY! Really? Is there nothing to worry? I doubt it, so I approached her and told her I cook a lot so I KNOW very well
that it is maggot from the rotten flour of the noodle, the stink reassured me. She explained in quivering voice that for 10 years she's been selling the food there, and never found such a case. Without any further confrontation, I just asked her to replace my bakso and remove the noddle. That is it! Why did she feel threatened by me? I just wanna eat bakso without maggot in it. All she needed to do was serving me with new portion of bakso without noodle, where the maggots came. Not trying to say "Dont eat at Economics cafeteria", just be careful, it can happen anywhere anytime.
