On June 13, a 20-year-old employee of a public school in Okazaki, Aichi Prefecture, was charged with mixing human feces into the lunch there. More specifically it was found in the okazu of the lunch, which loosely translates to side dish and refers to the non-rice component of a meal. Its a pretty wide-ranging term that can refer to pretty much any food from fried chicken to a brick of tofu.

The incident occurred on Oct 8, 2021, when the principal of the school taste-tested the okazu of the days meal in advance in the staff room and noticed that it had a peculiar odor and discoloration. He immediately canceled the meal for everyone else and submitted the food to the public health center for examination. The results confirmed that it contained E. coli bacteria, and even though the okazu was made in a separate central facility, no other schools had any trace of fecal matter in their food.

Thanks to the keen senses and quick action of the principal, none of his students or staff members were exposed to the contaminated food and did not suffer any illness as a result.

A subsequent investigation led back to the staff member, though it is unclear what her motive was or how she managed to mix the excrement into the food.

She is charged with fraudulent obstruction of business, which wouldnt be the first crime that springs to mind when someone attempts to poison an entire school. She is currently denying the charge.

Its not done in all schools, but in Japan there is a custom of a principal or vice principal eating lunch about 30 minutes before everyone else. Although it is sometimes referred to as a dokumi or food taster in the sense of someone checking for poison, its not clear whether thats the primary concern, since food poisoning often cant be detected at the moment of eating and wont take effect within 30 minutes of eating. More likely its just to check that the quality and flavor of the food are up to snuff, or merely as a formality.

Someone woke up one morning and actually said to themselves "I'm gonna go out today and literally try to make a bunch of children eat poo."

Then attempted to do that....

Sometimes there are no words.
