Raise your hands if you are dependent on delivery platforms for grocery shopping. These days you do not need to put the extra effort to step outside and buy groceries as everything is just a click away. These door-to-door deliveries have made shopping easier and simpler than ever before. Unfortunately, there are some cases where many users have bad experiences such as receiving stale products. But this time, a man had a very weird experience while ordering from Blinkit. What really happened? Let’s take a look!
This Man Found A Rat Inside The Bread Packet
A Twitter user who goes by the username @NitinA14261863 shared his unusual experience of shopping from Blinkit, an online shopping platform. He found a rat trapped inside a bread packet. Isn’t that disgusting? Nitin Arora shared some photos of his experience. You can check these out here.
Most unpleasant experience with @letsblinkit , where alive rat was delivered inside the bread packet ordered on 1.2.23. This is alarming for all of us. If 10 minutes delivery has such baggage, @blinkitcares I would rather wait for a few hours than take such items.#blinkit #zomato pic.twitter.com/RHNOj6tswA

Captioning, “Most unpleasant experience with @letsblinkit, where alive rat was delivered inside the bread packet”, Nitin talked about how this situation is alarming for everyone. He placed his order on 1 February 2023 and it took only about 10 minutes to receive the parcel. He even shared a screenshot of his chat with the customer care service of Blinkit.
Nitin further wrote if delivering products within 10 minutes comes with such baggage, then he would like to wait for some hours rather than waiting for only 10 minutes and experiencing such negligence.
Blinkit soon responded to this situation with a tweet.
Hi Nitin, this is not the experience we wanted you to have. Please share your registered contact number or Order ID via DM for us to look into it. https://t.co/cmvbhHSmuW

Netizens Are Very Frustrated On Blinkit!
Twitterati is angry with the delivery platform for being so careless about delivering grocery products to the customers. This is a bad example of not caring and checking about what they are delivering. None of the people involved in packing and delivering saw a live rat trapped inside a bread packet. This unusual experience has really shocked Netizens and left them in confusion if anyone would want to place an online order for grocery products from Blinkit.
Here are some reactions from Tweeple:
Same issue with me I received the rotten goods from Blinkit and not getting any support from Customer service then I decided to visit there store where they dispatch the orders no wonder if rat was found in a packet the store was totally messed and full of insects and garbage.

@blinkitcares “Better late than never”
Try to make sure, good and safe delivery.— Nand Kishor Shukla (@codenannu) February 3, 2023
As much as #EnglishOven and #Blinkit need to explain this. I wonder if our food safety authority actually audits these places time to time and checks for “Safety”
