Speaking as somebody who had food outlets, sad to say you regularly have professional scam artists trying to extort a little something by claiming they found something or other in the food, which is usually/probably just bullshit. We experienced it many times. Pikeys often do it and pressure/threaten you to give them free food for example. Hard to definitively disprove and you don't want the trouble. Or a disgruntled employee/former employee trying to stitch them up and neither any fault of the restaurant.
Or they might be filthy and it's legitimate. But that's less likely if it's a large scale restaurant chain. They normally try to get their food safety stuff together more nowadays out there. They'd likely employ a western food safety expert for firms of that magnitude.
Probably somebody very successfully trying it on. Anything for a headline, journos aren't likely to care or be able to validate whether it's made up or not.

TBH if I found something in my food and the management said it was probably just bullshit I'd be saying "what do you mean, 'just'?"
