Doctor's viral post shares bad experience with Amul ice cream

BENGALURU: Ice cream is a food item that is loved by children and adults alike. But recently, a video of several regional ice cream companies making unhygienic ice cream has gone viral on social media. Now the ordeal of a doctor in Bengaluru is being discussed on social media.

They had ordered Amul ice cream through the app 'Zepto'. After getting the ice cream, when I was about to eat it, saw an oily frothy liquid on one side of the bowl. Immediately she shared about it on her X page. A picture of the ice cream has also been posted.

'I wonder what Amul has been adding to their ice creams lately. I ordered Amul's vanilla gold flavored ice cream through an app called 'Zepto'. When I opened the container of ice cream, I saw an oily foam near it. 'Zepto' authorities did not keep this ice cream in the freezer', said Dr. Nandita Iyer on her X page.

The incident immediately went viral on social media. The post is receiving many comments and likes. Some have suggested that the Food Safety Commission should strengthen its inspections. Others also say they have had similar experiences. After seeing this kind of oil in the ice cream, someone commented that it was put in the freezer and it was vegetable oil.

Some have also raised allegations against the delivery company 'Zepto'. A user alleges that he got food poisoning after eating food ordered by 'Zepto'. Anyway, 'Zepto' company has come in the controversy. The company replied that it regrets the incident and will register and DM the contact details or order ID. They have informed that the company authorities will contact soon.

Wonder what Amul is adding to their ice creams these days. Ordered Amul vanilla gold from @ZeptoNow and opened it instantly. An oily frothy liquid has separated out. Gross stuff.

Also, this Zepto store isn’t keeping its freezer powered on for sure. pic.twitter.com/Hs0gDB8pua
