A US bakery chain recently fired one of its employees, who shared a now-viral Tik Tok video showing off how a mac and cheese is cooked up at the restaurant. A video shared on the app, TikTok clearly showed zero efforts put by the employees to serve the chain's signature dish.
Pre-cooked dish wrapped in plastic sheets
The video showed how the employee heats up the pre-cooked dish wrapped in plastic sheets, and serves it on the platter for consumption. The employee was fired soon after the video went viral, and even ended up on the local news channel. The employee later revealed her fate on Twitter.
The video is claimed to have left many loyal diners of the chain feeling disappointed and shocked about the pre-packaged food. However, the food chain hasn’t issued any statement or reaction in response to the viral video or the firing of the employee. As a matter of fact, most of the fast-food chains have been caught preparing food in a similar manner. As long as the restaurants are clean, the practices behind the scenes aren't typically a secret.
Twitter reacts
While most of the Twitter users responded in an angrily towards the preparation method used, others declared that they would no longer eat at the chain.
