The soan papdi enjoys some major attention during Diwali festivities. But recently netizens were left shocked when they found a video of their favourite festive mithai being made in an unhygienic way. A video clip surfaced showing men preparing Soan Papdi in questionable conditions, sparking strong viewer backlash.
The footage begins with a large mound of Soan Papdi dough, followed by one man taking a portion outside. He presses it flat on a sheet and applies gas to heat it. After treating the raw Soan Papdi with oil or ghee, it’s placed on a wall and kneaded until it achieves a glossy texture. Later, a group of men are seen stretching the dough into soft, elongated threads. Many viewers expressed concerns over the apparent lack of hygiene in the preparation process.
In response to the post, people commented on the unsanitary methods used in the Soan Papdi preparation. A netizen said, “Hygiene is absolutely illegal in this goddamn country.” Another added, “I ate an entire box of soan papdi today. How can I vomit it?”
Someone else commented, “India should ban street food. Yes, people have to make a living, but maintaining hygiene should be the standard.” A comment read, “At this point, I can't no longer support my country. Wtf is this?” Another user said, "This is why I don't like soan papdi."
