Entrepreneur and food content creator Khairul Aming has cleared the air regarding a recent tweet on Dendeng Nyet.
The said post- which showed a supermarket in Sarawak- was slammed by netizens for pricing the product at a staggering RM39.90 a piece, almost three times the original price.
Dendeng Nyet Berapi is being sold for RM39.90 at a supermarket in Sarawak.

I know shipping is expensive but RM39.90 is nearly x3 the online price (RM14.99)
I want to support you @khairulaming but its just too expensive. I hope you can adjust your cost & lower the price, tq! pic.twitter.com/nKrIW7xwBu
KA was quick to clarify the issue, noting that his products are only sold on TikTok and Shopee.
FYI kita tak pernah lantik sesiapa untuk jualan retail. Kalau ada kita dah announce. Semua sambal dan dendeng dijual online sahaja dengan harga Rm13.99 dan Rm14.99. Kotak display warna merah ni pun tak tahu datang dari mana, bukan kita yang print. Please buy from our online store https://t.co/c6k0qQDOgf

Not only that, the supermarket was also seen using a rack display bearing Sambal Nyet logo, which KA firmly denied it was printed by him.
Following the controversy, it’s advisable for consumers to shop via the above e-commerce platforms only as KA doesn’t have physical affiliates nor partnership with stores.
