Man says he found maggots in convenience store sandwich

EWING, N.J. — A man says he found maggots in a sandwich he ordered from a convenience store in New Jersey.

Chris Garcia told The Trentonian he bought a buffalo chicken cheesesteak hoagie Saturday from a Wawa store in Ewing, where he lives. He claims after a taking few bites, he noticed sauce from the sandwich was moving.

The 22-year-old said he found two maggots moving around his sandwich. Garcia's mother recorded video of maggots crawling on the sandwich wrapper.

A spokeswoman for the 750-store chain said Wawa inspects its stores daily and holds itself to the "highest standard of quality" in the food it serves.

Garcia said he was given a refund after returning to the store with the sandwich.

Wawa also has stores in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and Florida.
