Another user criticized the establishment, stating, "What a joke to food safety @TheobromaIndia. Do you even conduct audits? A small cockroach indicates that larger ones could be present, creating a breeding ground. Please adhere to basic safety standards as outlined in Schedule IV of FSSAI."
One Redditor humorously suggested, "That’s the food inspector conducting quality checks," while another added, "Poetic. This is where satire and reality intersect. The cockroach symbolizes a bribe-seeking food inspector." Many users shared their own alarming experiences, raising serious concerns about hygiene in popular dining spots.
A user recounted, "I visited a fine dining restaurant and found red ants all over my chair. I left immediately. Hygiene is not taken seriously in this country." The post gained traction on Reddit, with some joking that the cockroach was merely inspecting the food quality.
