Bengaluru Man Finds ‘Live Snail’ In Salad

In an extremely disturbing incident, a Bengaluru man has complained to Swiggy as he got a salad which had a live snail. The Bengaluru man Dhavan Singh took to social media platform ‘X’ (formerly known was Twitter) and Reddit and posted a video of the snail in his salad. With the video, he wrote “Swiggy, do whatever you can to ensure this sh*t doesn’t happen to others… Bengaluru folks take note.” To this, Swiggy responded and said, “Hi Dhaval. That is terrible. Please help us with the order ID, so we can look into it.” It was at this point that the original poster further disclosed, “Customer care is not even offering full refund lol. Forget ensuring anything else… Even the drink was incorrect btw.”

In another similar incident from Bengaluru, a woman discovered a dead cockroach in the chicken fried rice that she had ordered using the delivery app Zomato. She said, “I ordered chicken fried rice in Zomato from restaurant “TAPRI BY THE CORNER”. I got cockroach in my food. Absolutely disgusted with my order! This is completely unacceptable and unhygienic. Need an immediate resolution.” Zomato issued an apology and said, “That’s really unexpected, Harshitha. We can understand how you must be feeling. Could you please help us with your registered contact number/ Order ID via a private message so that we can look into this immediately?”
