Finding a safe place to eat is increasingly becoming a challenge these days. More and more cases are coming to light where customers are served stale and often fungus-ridden food items. This has happened not just in relatively unknown places but also in popular eateries. This has sparked significant safety concerns as people are increasingly worried about their health. Recently, a woman from Hyderabad got a pastry from a popular bakery but it was covered with fungus.
Hyderabad Woman Finds Fungus In Pastry Ordered From Bakery
No food joint in #Hyderabad can be trusted anymore 😔 This is a popular bakery (5th Avenue Bakers) in #Sainikpuri that has been serving consumers for 30+ years. When I opened the Eclair, I found fungus in it. @cfs_telangana Let me know where I can file complaint for this. pic.twitter.com/oL8Po5NcwT

Recently, a user named Preeti Biswas took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to share the unfortunate incident that happened. She got an eclair from a popular bakery in Hyderabad, 5th Avenue Bakers. However, when she opened the eclair, she found it covered with fungus.
She said that the bakery is quite renowned and has been serving in the area for more than thirty years. Hence, this incident hits harder because it is supposedly a trustworthy food joint. Such incidents can not only be dangerous for unassuming customers but can also break the trust between a seller and a consumer.
In her caption, she wrote, “No food joint can be trusted in Hyderabad anymore.” signifying how she felt betrayed by the stale pastry. She also tagged the concerned authority to ask for guidance in filing a complaint against the eatery.
This Is How The Netizens Reacted To This Post

Many people took to the comment section and sympathised with Biswas. They talked about how trusting eateries is becoming increasingly difficult as similar cases keep arising. One commenter worriedly wrote that she recently had a sandwich from the same place.
Scary. Looks like nothing is safe Preeti :(

Another commenter talked about how even the big online grocers serve stale and outdated products. One other commenter wrote how the incident had unlocked a new fear of pastries for them and how all bakery items are essentially ruined for them for good.
Even the grocery supply chain @bigbasket_com @ratnadeep201701 sells outdated products. Seems like that. In Hyderabad during a check by FSAAI official . This fact can be checked in Deccan Chronicle dt.,25/05/2034. That’s it.
