The caption, which accompanied the video “Rat in pani puri”. The social media vlogger remarked he made a request to the golgappa cart vendor to immediately discard the contaminated mix that was then thrown away.
The now-viral video has generated lakhs of views on social media with a significant majority of social media users talking about the unhygienic conditions under which roadside food is served in India.
Social Media Reactions
A social media user commented, “The way he casually cleans after it”. Another commented, “Chi, Aaaj se pani poori band” while another commented that the “golgappa cart guy needs to hire a cat to serve rat-free food.” Another user commented, “Paaji went for golgappa and were just about to be served non-vegetarian food.”
This is not the first instance of unhygienic conditions at roadside stalls in the city of Amritsar. Previously, a video of roadside dhaba being infected by many live rats had gone viral.
It was not clarified by the video whether the live rat was inside the container of golgappa water mix for some time or just jumped into the mix. Social media users remarked that it does not matter whether the rat was minutes before or just immediately was in the golgappa water. The fact that a live rat managed to enter the golgappa water that is consumed by people of all ages and genders, especially by young children and girls, is enough to not defend the unhygienic conditions.
