Viral Video Shows A Hosteler Squeezing Oil From Vadai, Internet Calls It "Cholesterol Vada"

One of the biggest drawbacks of living in a hostel has always been surviving with limited (good) food options. Sounds relatable? Now, an Instagram user has thrown light on a similar situation by sharing a glimpse of his hostel food. Suganth dropped a video, wherein he was served a South Indian meal by his hostel mess. What was on the menu? Deep-fried "vadai" with coconut chutney and sambhar. In the clip, Suganth can be seen squeezing the sambhar-soaked vadai with his hand. But surprisingly, instead of sambhar, we could see a more-than-necessary amount of oil dripping from the vadai. TBH, the sambhar and the chutney look super watery. The text, on the video, read, "Hostel food," with a woozy face emoticon. Sharing the clip, Suganth in the caption wrote, "My Hostel Vadai..."

It seems the Internet could very well relate to Suganth. So far, the video has amassed more than 37 million views. Several people have also shared their experiences in the comments. 

A comment read, "Same problem with my company's food."

Many pointed out the health conditions that such food could cause, as a user said, "99 missed calls from a heart attack."

A few called it, "Dangerous food in the world."

Another jokingly commented, "Continue like this for 1 month taking oil out of wada then boom you will have an oil factory in your room and can give rations also."

"Cholesterol: I'm coming," wrote a person.

"There is some vada in your oil," joked another

Some claimed that the amount of oil that came out of the vadai was enough for them to prepare a proper meal, as a comment read, "I can cook kg chicken with that oil."

Another read, "What is this, it seems you can make 5 dosa using oil to come from that Vada."
