Core Tip: A text message about a needle that was allegedly found in a banana in Penang has gone viral.
A text message about a needle that was allegedly found in a banana in Penang has gone viral. The WhatsApp message, made by a woman speaking in the Hokkien dialect, warned people to be careful when eating bananas.
 
She claimed that her friend’s mother and a worker went to buy some bananas at a shop, but the worker’s tongue was pierced by a needle embedded in the fruit. The message was accompanied by a photo of a needle in the fruit.
 
But asiaone.com reports how traders say the report was a hoax to affect the brisk sales of bananas during the ongoing Nine Emperor Gods Festival.
