Restaurant loses $190m in value after dead rat found in soup - BBC News
A popular Chinese restaurant chain has lost around $190m (£145m) in market value after a pregnant woman in China found the boiled rat in her dish after she had taken a few bites.
Hotpot restaurant Xiabu Xiabu's stock hit its lowest level in almost a year, after photos of the dead rat being fished out of the broth with a pair of chopsticks quickly spread online.
The outlet in Shandong province has now been temporarily suspended.
The outlet reportedly offered her 5,000 yuan (£559, $729) as compensation.
According to local news outlet Kankan News who spoke to her husband - identified as Mr Ma - he declined the offer, as he wanted his wife to undergo a full body check-up before deciding on a compensation amount.
