Shanghai reports food-safety violations; sandwich suspected of insect eggs
In 2021, Shanghai market regulators published a list of food-safety violators; Wagas was warned after flies were found in a food-processing area and fined RMB 50,000 for operating cake sales beyond its permitted scope. In September 2026, a consumer said dense suspected insect eggs were found on lettuce in a Wagas sandwich; the brand said it may have been a cleaning oversight and launched store self-inspections. Warning and fine; refund and self-inspection.
