Food safety is a big worry in India, with recent problems involving contaminated food from various places. The latest issue involves Burger King, where a customer found mold on a burger ordered through Zomato. This incident has brought renewed attention to ongoing food quality problems with the fast-food chain.
Moldy Burger Causes Outrage
Yaman Dev Sharma recently shared a troubling discovery on X (formerly Twitter). After enjoying fries, he opened his Veg Whopper burger and found mould on it. Shocked, Sharma posted a video showing the mouldy burger and tagged Burger King and Zomato to get their attention. His post went viral, sparking widespread criticism and calls for action.
जोमाटो के ज़रिए बर्गर किंग से ऑर्डर किया गया. फ्राइज़ खत्म करने के बाद बर्गर (Veg Whooper) खोला, और मुझे आज पता चला कि उन्होंने नया फ्लेवर लॉन्च किया है. जहां बर्गर की ब्रेड के साथ फफूंद यानी मोल्ड फ्री में आ रहा है. @zomato @burgerkingindia pic.twitter.com/xG2VHLjQol

Previous Problems With Burger King
This isn’t the first time BK has faced food safety concerns. In an earlier incident, Tiffany Floyd found blood on her daughter’s burger at a Burger King in New York. What her child thought was ketchup turned out to be blood from a cook’s injury. Floyd was deeply worried and took her child to the doctor for testing. Burger King apologized and offered a refund, but the lack of transparency from the restaurant caused further stress for Floyd.
Public Reactions And Calls For Change
The latest mouldy burger case, along with past issues, has led to growing concerns about BK’s food safety. People on social media are upset and demanding better quality control. Comments on Sharma’s post ranged from disgust at the moldy burger to jokes about poor food preservation.
Both Zomato and BK need to act quickly to address these problems and improve their food safety practices. Customers are calling for stricter checks and higher standards to make sure such issues don’t happen again.
