Trending News: A Japanese man named Kaito, who uses the name Kaito on Twitter, had an interesting experience while on a business trip.

Kaito quickly took a picture and video of the frog and posted it on Twitter. The post became very popular and spread rapidly. In response to the incident, Marugame Seimen apologized and temporarily stopped selling the product.
Kaito's tweet, which was translated from Japanese to English, said, "#shakeudon. I ate udon during my business trip... I ate after shaking it and didn't notice until the end. The shop reopened that night after being closed for 3 hours, and is still selling salads and the same products. Be careful before eating." Along with the tweet, he shared a video and a photo showing the live frog in his udon bowl.
After Kaito's tweet went viral, the company apologized to the customer for the inconvenience caused. They also apologized to all their customers who regularly visit Marugame Seimen. The company stated, "We immediately sought guidance from the local public health center and determined that the contamination originated from the raw materials, specifically the vegetable processing factory." As a result, the company temporarily stopped selling the product.

I can't clearly see the line next to the eye, so it might be a Schlegel's tree frog." Another person said, "Are you talking about vegetables? I remember once buying lettuce and finding a bigger frog at the bottom of the bag, so accidents like this can happen." A third person expressed, "Another frog incident? There have been quite a few lately..." A fourth person shared, "I remember ordering a salad at a Japanese pub once, and there was a cabbage caterpillar in it."
