KUWAIT CITY, Oct 9: The students of the Faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Kuwait have launched the ‘Hashtag’ on Twitter, under the title ‘Boycott_cafeteria _of_Social sciences’ after insects were seen in the cafeteria.

“We do not know how long the cafeteria of social sciences will continue this low level, although the prices of daily food inside the cafeteria are high, the students said according to the Al- Anba daily.

They asked: Where is the nutrition department of the Kuwait University. Why does the department not see this absurdity? They added, “Everyday we find insects and flies inside the food and that many students have already boycotted the cafeteria.”

The Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences at the University, Dr Mahmoud Al-Qashaan said he followed the comments and the hashtag on Twitter.

He added, the cafeterias are subject to direct and permanent supervision by the Department of Nutrition, however “we immediately spoke to the Secretary- General and the Director of the Nutrition Department who went to the faculty and checked the refrigerators, tables and utensils used for preparing and eating food.”
