自分が出張中に気に立っていたうどんを食べたら
何にカエル
振った後に食べて最後の方まで気づかなかった
お店は3時間の営業停止の後にその日の夜から営業再開、今もサラダや同じ商品を販売中

In response to the viral tweet, Marugame Seimen, the renowned restaurant chain, issued an immediate apology. The company took swift action by temporarily halting the sales of the Spicy Dandan Salad Udon, pledging to investigate the matter thoroughly to ensure such incidents are prevented in the future.
Kaito, the Japanese Twitter user, took to the platform to share his startling experience with a video and picture. In his post, he expressed his surprise and disbelief at discovering a live frog in his dish. Kaito revealed that he was just moments away from finishing his meal when he noticed the unexpected movement of the frog.
“#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,” Kaito wrote.
Here are some reactions to Kaito's post:
A Twitter user commented, "Tree frog? I can't see the line next to the eye clearly, so there's a possibility that it's a Schlegel's tree frog?"
Another user shared a personal experience, saying, "Are you talking about vegetables? A long time ago, when I bought lettuce, I found a bigger frog sitting at the bottom of the bag, so it must be a possible accident."
Expressing concern over similar incidents, a third user remarked, "Frog again. There have been a lot of frog incidents lately..."
Reflecting on their own encounter, a fourth user shared, "A long time ago, when I ordered a salad at an izakaya, there was a cabbage caterpillar in it."
These comments highlight a mix of speculation, shared experiences, and observations related to finding unexpected creatures in food. Kaito's post sparked a conversation among Twitter users, generating a range of reactions and personal anecdotes.
