A company in Musina, Limpopo, has apologised after being taken to task for advertising chicken necks, feet and gizzards “for your domestic worker”.

An advertisement featuring the company logo and address stated that it was open and ready “to serve you”.

“In order to make things easy and convenient, we will be doing deliveries on orders R300 and above. Payments – strictly cash,” the advert read. Several foods on special were listed including braaivleis rump, chicken drumsticks, mince and “ouma” boerewors. But what followed angered many South Africans on social media - “for your domestic worker, we have chicken necks, gizzards, head and feet.”

“This is sheer racism, bigotry and an insult to our beloved mothers, fathers and sisters alike,” read one reaction posted online.

South Africa, alive with racism!

Are they apologizing for being caught out or what?

Sorry, sorry,sorry,sorry,sorry 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

I wont be surprised if the owner is ..... in color

Sorry is not good enough they should be closed down

Beyond comprehension how anybody can commit a faux pax like this. Consider that before it was published, it didn’t only go through one person. There’s conceptualization, spell checks, correct font, spacing, publishing. Don’t let just one person take the blame here.

I don't understand how they thought it was ok to advertise like this in the first place 😤

That's where most racist's come from.🧐

This is why I hate the Freedom Day lie in SA! This company is not starting now this is how black people are being insulted everyday. It’s just the same as food parcels from the rich who take pictures to go show their friends. Toxic Country!

🤮🤮🤮

And lamb chops A grade for the baas. Voetsek

Masepa a bone

Is an apology enough for such derogatory and demeaning behaviour?

But we black eat this staffs.... What's wrong now?

Apology isn’t enough they must close the Rubbish, detain them, but the ANC government will accept the stupid apology

Ke one masepa a Julius asa a batleng a

All they do us to apologise

Bad advertising . Confusing explicit and implicit message.

Let the fake rage squads commence their mutterings.

Sorry for what? They knew what they were promoting so why apologise for something they believed in? Let them shove apology where the sun doesn't shine.

Tone-Deafness

I genuinely believe in making mistakes but they were stupid!

They can shove their apology up their discriminating asses

Sowetan just say it, the company name is CY Frozen Food.

They’re sorry that they got exposed

It's doors should be closed completely

Yhanehhh food fit for slaves... What can we say when the same black people don't see themselves deserving of any help from this government... Old-age & unemployment grant must be permanent in this country and the Land must return FreedomDay

They're sorry they got caught

MissPampi A No name company i see!

Stupidity

They were ready with their fake 'apology' even before they sent the advert out!

What difference does it really make? Message passed already. Our mothers and sisters and aunts deserve chicken feet while they work their butts off, why not doing them a favour tell them not to eat your food instead they should bring their decent meals from home.

Arg please

Go to hell company

These Caucasians are bull shitting

That company must just disappear in hell.

Apology not accepted tsek!!!!!
