A spat over spoiled food
MANILA, Philippines - What are the responsibilities of a storeowner when a customer gets sick from eating spoiled food bought from his or her store?
Karen Davila (photo) finds out in Pinoy True Stories: Engkwentro today where she looks into the brawl between good friends Nanay Charing, a retail store owner, and Aling Nora, one of her loyal customers.
Aling Nora and Nanay Charing have known each other for seven years now. One day, however, Aling Nora’s family was put at risk after eating spoiled salted eggs she bought at Nanay Charing’s store.
Aling Nora’s four children and two grandkids were rushed to the hospital due to diarrhea and vomiting. Aling Nora, stricken with panic and fear, was also overwhelmed by the large hospital fees.
It turned out that the eggs they ate had salmonella. Enraged, Aling Nora filed a case against Nanay Charing at the barangay hall.
Engkwentro airs Tuesdays at 4:45 p.m. on Kapamilya Gold.
