A Scandal Being Called ‘Rat Head Gate’ After Something Strange Found In A School Lunch
Recently, Chinese social media has been inundated with a scandal being called “Rat Head Gate.”
It all started when a student at Jiangxi Vocational Technical College of Industry Trade found what appeared to be the head of a rat in their lunch.
Being the modern era, that student took out their phone to record the magical moment when a rat head showed up in a bowl of rice.
This trending topic received over 310 million views on Weibo today and it's quite Kafkaesque. June 1st, a student at a Jiangxi college finds a rat head in his cafeteria rice meal. When he makes a complaint, he's told that it's actually duck. He says, "but you can see its teeth!" pic.twitter.com/MCnW7V2JSG

When confronted, the school offered a differing opinion, saying that it was actually the head of a duck…which doesn’t exactly make it better, does it?
That said, the necks of ducks are very popular in Chinese cuisine, but that doesn’t matter since the student is adamant that “duck” wasn’t part of their lunch order.
