Spicy gluten caused family rift

A woman in Yubei district has filed a lawsuit against a food company, claiming its brand of spicy gluten caused a family conflict. The woman, surnamed Liu, said the gluten's packaging looked like that for a condom, which angered her husband and caused him to demand a divorce. She said she contacted the company but a customer service representative allegedly ignored her complaint. The company has apologized to Liu and offered her some free spicy gluten, but she has refused to drop the case.
