Vloggers promoting unhygienic food

Food influencers on social media travel from place to place and promote such food items which are tasty but when it comes to hygiene, they are very poor.

Food videos of street foods make everyone's mouth water, especially when vloggers never tire of praising the food.

Recently I saw a food video in which the food vlogger was praising some street food but when the scene behind it was shown, the real secret of the taste of that food was revealed. Dirty drain, heap of garbage, buzzing flies and the vlogger was saying- 'Wow what a taste.'

The video revealed the truth

You must have seen many such food related videos in which the vlogger says, 'This dish is the best dish in the world and you must try it. But you should not try any food on their advice, otherwise your health can definitely be in danger.

In the era of food vlogging, many people now reach those shops after seeing the reviews of food vloggers where they can get a chance to taste delicious dishes. One such video is making headlines on social media these days, in which a person is seen praising street food in front of the camera. But in this video, netizens saw something after which people are now scolding that food vlogger.

Don't mess with your health

What actually happens is that when the food vlogger is sitting in front of the camera and praising the food of the vendor, at the same time the vendor standing behind the food vlogger is caught on camera scratching his hip with his hand inside his lungi. This is not the first case when such a video has surfaced. Even before this, many videos like making golgappas, making revdi and making jaggery have surfaced in which it was seen that people are making them using their hands or feet.

In these videos, someone is taking out falooda by putting dirty hands in a big container, while someone is seen flattening revdi with bare feet. But food vloggers do not get tired of praising those food on social media.

This food can be fatal

At these food carts and shops, the hawker often gives food wrapped in newspaper, but very few people are aware that eating the newspaper on which the food is being served can be fatal. This is the reason why now the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India has warned all food vendors and food buyers about this.

Promotion of harmful food by video bloggers is increasing their sales. But the most worrying thing about all this is that the consumption of such food is increasing among people. Nowadays, on digital platforms and social media, bloggers are promoting unhealthy food without caring about people's health and the result of this promotion is increasing the consumption of unhealthy food among children.

Be careful before eating street food

If you are also fond of eating street food and are thinking of eating the food there on the recommendation of food vloggers, then be a little careful and before eating, pay attention to how hygienically it is being made and how much attention is being paid to cleanliness in making it. Nowadays, food vloggers are uploading such food videos on social media in the pursuit of views and earnings, where the food in those food videos is praised a lot, whereas if seen carefully, that food is being made in a very unhygienic way. This is playing with the health of people.

Doctors also believe that eating unhygienic food from outside after watching such videos is increasing health problems in people. The things used in street foods and making them in an unhygienic way also harms health a lot.
