Pedestrians And Dropped Takeaway Noodles

Pedestrians avoid a noodle and sauce takeaway, dropped and discarded on the pavement during lunch-hour in the capital's financial district, on 4th February 2020, in the City of London, England. The lunchtime meal was being carried along the street when its heat and moisture made it drop through the bottom of a paper bag, turning it upside down and lying perfectly on the pavement as city workers emerged from their offices. Those who saw it in time stepped over the greasy obstacle but the distracted (mostly by walking with phones to ears), stepped in it and helping spread it across the pavement.
