For many nasi kandar lovers, ordering squid as a side dish is considered a splurge, as the seafood is usually much more expensive than other dishes.
Some fans even joke that squid only makes it onto their plates when payday arrives, making it a special treat after sticking to more affordable choices.
However, what was supposed to be an indulgent nasi kandar meal turned into a nightmare for one family after they allegedly discovered a cockroach inside the squid they had purchased.
The discovery reportedly left the entire family losing their appetite, with the unexpected finding raising questions about how the insect could have ended up inside the seafood.
