Our Department received a complaint from a customer who states that he found a staple in his carry out shrimp fried rice.
I discussed the complaint with the owner. She feels that the staple may have been from an employee quickly opening a closed (stapled) carry
out bag while packaging multiple orders. Sometimes the staple will pop off the bag and could land in a container of food waiting to be closed.
Employees are instructed to carefully remove the staple the holds the bag closed.
