A woman was left horrified after she allegedly found a dead spider "cooked into " her Domino's Pizza.
Georgia Cook had sat down to eat the takeaway with her partner Dillon, 27, and son George, 5, when they made the horrifying discovery. The 26-year-old mum said she was excited about the delivery from the chain's outlet in Feltham, West London - but when the pizza arrived and the family opened the lid, they were shocked to reportedly find a spider in the half pepperoni, half Meateor dish.
The furious mum, who works in the food industry herself, said she was still waiting for a response from Domino's Pizza after the order on 8 October around 6pm.
She said: “I sat down to eat my pizza and Dillon shouted ‘There's a spider in the pizza’, I jumped up and screamed ‘What! That's disgusting!’. It put us off the whole meal and it wasn't cheap, so we were angry. After this, I contacted the store straight away and their answer was that they check our pizzas very carefully.
“I was so angry and said ‘Is that it?’ – it clearly got there somehow. Before ending the call I told them I’d be taking this further. I contacted Domino's food safety, but we’ve had no reply as of yet – other than their investigating. [sic] They seem to be taking their time responding. I've worked in the food industry for eight years. I understand some incidents happen but having no interest in rectifying the issue is just appalling. All my friends and family are freaked out and put off Domino's forever!”
Man flies to Milan for pizza for less than the cost of ordering a Domino'sGeorgia shared the post on Facebook, with users reacting strongly to the alleged pizza disaster. One woman joked: “For extra, extra crunch”, while another quipped: “It’s the Halloween edition". But others appeared more concerned by the discovery and said they were now put off ordering, as one said: “No more Domino’s for me.” Another person added: “Domino’s is way too expensive for this.” A spokesperson for Domino's Pizza said: “Great tasting, quality pizza is what we pride ourselves on and all our food goes through a strict, thorough quality check before it is sent out to customers. We have contacted this customer and offered a full refund to make up for them not being able to enjoy their pizza on this occasion.”
