Video captures rats feasting at Tokyo convenience store
TOKYO — Rats are generally the last thing you want to see at a place where you buy food.
But employees of a FamilyMart convenience store in Tokyo probably have some work to do to get rid of the vermin after a viral video showed at least six rats doing some unauthorized shopping at one of the chain’s locations, reports Reuters.
“We deeply apologize for making you feel uncomfortable and uneasy,” the company told customers after the video was seen at least five million times on YouTube. “We take this case seriously.”
The convenience store was shut down so workers could sanitize surfaces, as the critters were seen snacking on bento meals and rice balls.
