CONCORD, N.C....
The Cabarrus County Health Department is investigating after a woman said she saw roadkill being taken to a Concord restaurant over the weekend.
That woman took a picture Sunday afternoon after she saw the people in the car pick up a dead deer off the road and throw it in the back of a car.
She recognized the car from it delivering food to her home and office.
"I just couldn't believe what I was seeing," said the woman, who didn’t want to be identified.
She called police after the car drove behind China Fun with the roadkill in the back.
Ooops, left off the rest of the article:
‘’They were backed up to the restaurant door with that dead deer in that car they use for delivery,” the witness said.
Police turned the case over to the Cabarrus County Health Department.
“We went there and found, indeed, they had slaughtered a deer, or were cutting up a dead deer in the back of the parking lot and had already brought parts inside, into the sink,” County Health Director William Pilkington said.
Channel 9 caught up with the restaurant owner Sunny Chen on Wednesday who said he was the one driving the Versa in the photos that a viewer sent in.
“I asked somebody if I could eat deer from the side of the road. He said OK,” Chen said. “But maybe it’s not okay to bring it to the restaurant, so that’s my mistake.”
Those strip mall chinese slop shops are the first jobs for most uneducated, peasant chinese immigrants who either legally or illegally make it into the USA. So don’t be surprised if their hygiene standards, cheapness and slack operating methods will be those you would find in rural China.
Waste not want not.
Well it’s certainly a step up from the usual cat.
Venison pu pu platter.
Yeah, taking road kill to a restaurant is pretty bad. My husband was leaving the cattle auction barn one time and he saw several oriental men cutting up a calf that they had just bought at the auction. They obviously had killed it right there in the parking lot and were cutting it up in the trunk of their car.
Road kill is worse.
Those they put in the glove compartment.
I’d hate to find a lug-nut in my Chinese sausage or noodles.
Spare could come in handy. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth; even if it's lying on the side of the road.
My Sister and BIL spend a good part of each year in Europe. Last year was in Hungary which they describe as the most beautiful country in Europe.
Anyway she told me that just about every restaurant serves venison. I suppose they farm raise it.
An establishment can be cleared to serve "wild game animals" under certain circumstances, but I don't think road kill falls under that category.
As my grandfather told the state police (with a very thick French accent) as he butchered a deer he’d hit with his car, “But she is good meat, no? Why let it go to waste?”
Unfortunately it wasn't as dead as they thought and it regained consciousness in the back of the van as they were driving along. It was in a pretty bad mood. Several of the guys got broken ribs, bruises, etc. before they could stop and get it out of the van.
Thanks! You made my day-- I'm still laughing.
Just finished reading book on Trump family. Grandpa Freidrich made his money by serving stew made with dead pack horses that had collapsed on trail to Klondike and hot coffee.
When people are poor and trying to make a living everything is “fair game”
The Chinese themselves have a saying that a Chinaman will eat anything with four legs but a table.
Yup. Got some in my freezer.
Hold my beer and watch this ping!
