Shared by a Russian tourist, the clip quickly sparked outraged reactions on social media. Internet users are concerned about the health risks related to food hygiene at street stalls.
The young tourist accompanied the video with an ironic comment: “Anyone want some chopped fruit? The knife is free now, if anyone needs it.” … “God bless Thailand and the variety of its dishes.”
The post has been viewed more than 800,000 times. Many internet users expressed their disgust, while others asked for the location of the stall in order to avoid it.
The video was taken at the Pantip market in Koh Phangan but it is not established whether the knife was subsequently used to prepare food.
