“Kabhi local bakery jakar dekho ki cake kaise ban raha h, hosh udd jaenge, kabhi dobara cake khane ka mann nahi karega. (Try visiting a local bakery sometime and see how cakes are actually made. It’ll blow your mind and you won’t feel like eating cake ever again. Food inspectors of each district should fine and imprison these cretins. The central government should make laws, 10 years of jail for adulteration and 2 years for unhygienic food).”

“Such horrifying negligence in food production is a serious health hazard. Glad the authorities acted fast, but stricter inspections and penalties are a must to prevent this from happening again. Public health can’t be compromised for profit.”
