ffs, i got sick from that exact souvlaki at iam halls.. still can't look at chicken the same way 😩
straight up, mate. they'd rather spend on 'wellbeing initiatives' than pay for proper food safety training
150 people sick and they 'admit responsibility'... cool, now how bout some compensation for the students who failed exams cos they were busy shitting themselves?
honestly i'd settle for just an apology at this point. but yea compo would be nice lol
never trusted student association food tbh. always looked a bit sus
exactly this. i've seen kitchens get away with way worse cos no one reports it. glad it's finally in the news

hospitality worker here: that chicken was probably sitting out too long in the danger zone. classic mass catering fail. they'll get a slap on the wrist and move on
probably the cheapest frozen chicken they could find. classic corner cutting
yeah nah this is rough. those poor kids were already stressed for exams, then food poisoning on top? feel for them eh
i'm just glad no one ended up in hospital for real. could've been way worse
watch them blame it on the chicken supplier next week lol
heard they're already saying the supplier is 'independent' and 'no wrongdoing' lol what a crock
meanwhile the student association fees keep going up but they can't even get a chicken souvlaki right. priorities 👌
as a current ucanterbury student, i'm not surprised. the catering at uni events is always dodgy. last time i had a sausage at orientation week i regretted it for days
i hope they at least refunded the exam fees for those affected. absolute nightmare timing
yea but imagine paying for catered halls and getting food poisoning.. that's a joke
