The OP went on to note that the incident had occurred some time back, and she only remembered to upload it after the owner of the supermarket had already covered the shelves.
She urged her followers to remain aware when buying edible items from such open areas, pointing out the danger of contamination.
Netizens react in disgust
The video has since amassed over 120,000 views, with many TikTokers reacting in disgust to the sight.
One user pointed out that the chicken may now carry infectious diseases from the rodent, potentially harming whoever buys and eats the meat.
