The usage of food delivery applications has increased significantly in recent times. As our lives have become fast-paced, it serves as a convenient option and helps save time. However, there has also been a growing issue regarding the quality of the food received. In the past, there have been several cases of people complaining about finding insects in dishes ordered from restaurants. Another such incident has come to light and has sparked concern about the food service industry. Recently, a resident from Bengaluru turned to X, formerly Twitter, to complain about a cockroach that she found in a meal that she ordered from Zomato.
