A resident of Santiago de Cuba identified as Lissete Franco discovered a frog inside a kilogram of ground meat that she had bought at a butcher shop in the Altamira neighborhood.

In statements to journalist Yosmany Mayeta, the woman stated that she bought the product at the butcher shop on G Street and 6th in the Donato Mármol neighborhood, known as Altamira.

He explains that when he was trying to prepare the dough, he found a dead frog, almost intact, inside it. It was missing only one leg.

To make matters worse, when he tried to exchange the product, he couldn't because it had run out at the butcher's shop.

There is no more left, but I am going to cook that for the dogs. Because even if they change it, I am already disgusted," she commented.

This is not an isolated incident on the island. The quality of the food has been a persistent problem and a cause of multiple complaints from consumers.

In the past, cases of cockroaches, hairs, and cigarette butts have been reported in products such as rationed basket bread. The government has also acknowledged fragments of iron and inedible residues in the sugar provided through the ration store.

In February 2022, a woman found a frog in a package of processed ground meat, and in November of the same year, another Cuban found strange remnants in the ground meat from the basic basket.
