Ce insecte au fost servite ilegal la un restaurant cu stele Michelin. Proprietarul riscă închisoarea

A Michelin-starred restaurant owner in Seoul faces a year in prison for serving ants in desserts, violating food safety regulations. The investigation began after officials noticed online reviews featuring insect-laden sorbets. Approximately 49,000 ants were reportedly served over four years. The owner defended the practice, stating it was a small part of a tasting menu, with 60% of customers choosing to try the ant garnish. However, prosecutors argue that serving unapproved ingredients is illegal in South Korea, as ants are not on the approved list for human consumption. They seek a one-year prison sentence and a fine for the owner.
