Lip-smacking Shawarma makes for a culinary delight for those who love eating non-vegetarian foods. But what if the same juicy shawarma wrapped in a well-cooked chapati base leads to food poisoning? Yes, you read it right, because it happened in Mumbai, where at least 12 people were hospitalised after consuming chicken shawarma in Mumbai's Goregaon, a civic official said on Sunday.
As per the latest report, 12 people suffered food poisoning after eating shawarma and were hospitalised. The incident occurred at Satellite Tower in Santosh Nagar area of Goregaon (East) on Friday after eating chicken shawarma. The report further said that while nine people were discharged, three others are still undergoing treatment.
The reports said the quality of street side food, chicken shawarma, was not up to the mark that led to the saddening incident.
In a similar incident, as many as 76 students of a private hostel in Uttar Pradesh's Greater Noida suffered food poisoning and were hospitalised. And before that 80 passengers on the Bharat Gaurav Special train from Chennai fell prey to food poisoning complaining of stomach infections and other complications after eating stale food served on the train.
