I found a COCKROACH in my daughter’s McDonald’s Happy Meal after it was delivered by UberEats
A MCDONALD'S customer has claimed he found a cockroach in his daughter's Happy Meal after ordering through Uber Eats.
Images shared to Reddit show a feral bug climbing on top of a man's hot chips inside a delivery bag from a Hurstville store in Sydney, Australia.
He captioned a photo shared to social media: "This little guy enjoyed his Happy Meal. My daughter, not so much.
"Straya - where you get a free live toy with every Happy Meal, delivered by Uber Eats to the wrong address."
In the comment section, he wrote: "I'm Australian and should be used to them I guess, but give me snakes, spiders and rats over cockroaches any day. Those things are unspeakably revolting.
"Weirdly, if there had been a spider in it I reckon I’d be way less grossed out."

The man believes the bug crawled in his food while it was sitting outside the wrong home.
He suspected the food had been sitting out for 30 minutes before it was moved to his place.
Commenters on social media were perplexed how the bug could crawl inside the food before reaching the right address.
One person said: "I would've died, the sight of those especially if one's inside my house just instils absolute disgust and anxiety in me."
A McDonald's spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia its investigating how the incident occurred.
They said: "McDonald's takes food and drink safety extremely seriously and we are disappointed to hear of the customer's experience.
