There are plenty of online apps that delivery groceries at your doorstep in a very short span of time. Blinkit, Swiggy Instamart, Zepto are some of the apps that come to our rescue for the last minute requirements. It also saves you time and the hassle from asking the vendor for the right price.
However, for one of the user, the experience of ordering a packet of bread turned out to be extremely unpleasant. The consumer, identified as Nitin Arora, did not receive a stale or expired product but found a rat trapped inside the packet delivered by Blinkit.
The awful experience was shared on the micro-blogging site Twitter by Arora along with a video and photos.
"Most unpleasant experience with Blinkit, where an 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," wrote Arora sharing the post.

"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”," wrote a user.

"@MoHFW_INDIA @fssaiindia .. this is extremely serious and there needs to be a thorough health audit at all their premises. Their operations need to be suspended until there’s a clean chit," wrote a third.
