On Feb. 14, a wedding guest in southwestern China was served what should have been beef braised in soy sauce, only to find that a whole rat carcass had found its way into the meal.

Photos taken at the Badawan hotel in Chongqing city show people backing off from the barely-touched meal and leaving the scene. A sanitation official told Chongqing Daily News that the rodent may have fallen into the pot and drowned when the food was being prepared on Feb. 13.
