Bengaluru hotels raided: 132 kg rotten food, fungus-infected meat seized

The government checks that the food we eat is safe and clean.

In a city called Bengaluru in India, inspectors went to many hotels to see if the food they cook is good.

They found a lot of food that was not safe to eat, like rotten meat and old milk.

In total, they found 132 kilograms of bad food, which is heavier than most grown-ups.

They also found cooking oil that had been used too many times.

Some hotels kept meat and vegetables together when they should be kept apart.

The inspectors took some food with them to test it in a laboratory.

One restaurant was told to close because its kitchen was very dirty and its food was spoiled.

The people who run the hotels will now have to explain themselves to a food safety judge.

The health minister ordered these checks because many people complained about the food.
