RM75 Wagyu Pasta Comes in “Garbage Bag”, M’sian Customer Disappointed
Woman Shocked After RM75 Wagyu Pasta Arrives in “Garbage Plastic Bag”
When a Malaysian customer ordered a RM75 Wagyu Pasta from local influencer Jofliam, she expected a premium meal, especially given the price tag. But the experience turned sour when the food arrived at her doorstep.
Red Plastic Bag Sparks Outrage
The woman shared her disappointment online after receiving the pricey pasta in what she described as a “red garbage plastic bag.” While she initially wasn’t bothered by the RM75 price (not including the RM18 delivery fee), the packaging left her stunned.
In a screenshot of a viral post on Threads, she wrote:
“It tasted like a standard pasta, creamy and thick, and the wagyu was placed on top.”
“But I could hardly finish it because it was too creamy by the end. It was packed in a red plastic bag, like a garbage bag. Is he that poor?”
The Wagyu Pasta came in a black rectangular plastic container, wrapped in a red bag that resembled trash bags used in some local households.
Jofliam Remains Silent on Social Media
Jofliam, a Malaysian content creator known for his Wagyu Pizza, has not yet responded publicly to the complaint.
The Wagyu Pasta is a new item on his menu, which has seen a surge in attention due to both curiosity and mixed reviews. On Google, his pizzas are priced as high as RM150 for a 10-inch, prompting debates on whether the food justifies the premium pricing.
Public Reaction Split Over Packaging vs Price
Online reactions to the woman’s complaint have been mixed. Some agreed that packaging for premium-priced items should reflect their cost, especially when branding is involved. Others felt the customer was overreacting and focused too much on aesthetics rather than taste.
Still, the incident has sparked broader conversations about food packaging standards in the local influencer-driven F&B market.
What do you think does packaging matter when you’re paying RM75 for a single meal?
