5th January 2025 – (Taipei) In a peculiar turn of events, a customer visiting MOS Burger in Taiwan encountered a surprising sight on the self-service ordering kiosk: a listing for a “one-piece toilet.” The unexpected appearance of the toilet, complete with product details, left the diner confused and prompted them to share a photo online, jokingly asking, “Am I supposed to order a toilet to eat?”
The unusual incident quickly ignited discussions among netizens, with some playfully encouraging others to “click it” and see how the restaurant would respond, suggesting they had stumbled upon a “hidden version” of a toilet burger. However, many speculated that this was simply a human error, theorising that maintenance staff had failed to properly restart the system after servicing, inadvertently allowing customers to access a web browser instead of the menu.
The image shared on the Facebook group “Roadside Observation Academy” showcased the kiosk displaying a webpage from HCG, a Taiwanese brand, featuring a white toilet option priced at NT$37,700 (approximately HK$9,030), with a suggested retail price of NT$20,735 (roughly HK$4,970). This sparked further amusement among online users.
Amidst the humour, some questioned the actual cause of the error, wondering if it could be a hacking incident. In response, others provided plausible explanations, asserting that the mishap stemmed from maintenance oversight, which should have been reported to the IT department for resolution. They clarified that even if a customer attempted to order, no data would have been transmitted to the restaurant’s POS system.
