Employers must pay closer attention to the food supplied to their workers. If they neglect, then this is the result. How are they going to earn the man hours lost by this incident?

Kandykolla is right, the caterer must be using the same butter used at Cinnamon Grand.The Garment factory should send samples of the lunch to the same "Independent and Internationally Accredited Laboratory" for a report.
