A woman shared a Douyin video showing the tooth in a 30-yuan (US$4) meat-filled mooncake bought in Changzhou in eastern China’s Jiangsu province, as reported by Star Video on September 5.
The woman said the tooth did not belong to any of her family members, and that she had reported the incident to the police.
A staff member at Sam’s Club in Changzhou said the company was investigating the case.
The mooncake manufacturers told Hongxing News that it is “impossible to have a tooth mixed in the meat filling.”
