In an alarming event that occurred in a sweets and snacks chain known as Bikanervala, a customer from Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, found a frog’s leg in a samosa that has been bought. This discovery has prompted a lot of questions concerning the cleanliness of food and handling methods used at the place.
The creepy experience occurred when the customer tried to take a bite out of the samosa and something rather strange and terrible happened. Concerned about the presence of the bodies, the person immediately informed the relevant law enforcement personnel. As a result of this hearting incident, the police arrested the shop owner in order to question her and open an investigation towards this end.
This saw the Food Safety Department move in and take samples from the shop for lab analysis as they conducted investigations. This commitment makes them come out in a bid to safeguard patrons’ health by providing food that meets fundamental health requirements. This inquiry will ascertain whether Bikanervala has systematic problems with its food safety practices or not.

This is not the first case of food quality issues in India, as other similar cases have been reported in the recent past. Accumulation of foreign objects in food can have disastrous health ramifications, with nasty consequences such as food poisoning. Such incidences point to the fact that food businesses cannot afford to compromise on hygiene practices and quality assurance standards.
The consequences of this investigation might have multiple impacts on the shop owner or the shop itself as they can be fined or otherwise sanctioned by regulatory authorities. This may also lead to increased focus on observing food safety procedures in similar outlets, making the general population reassess the practices within the industry. This case is a reminder for the consumers of foods to pay keen attention on the quality of foods while at the same time highlighting the greatest responsibility that the providers of foods have in ensuring that the Foods albeit other business aspects are very hygienically produced.
While such cases are now relatively rare, increasing consumer concerns about food safety can weaken brand loyalty to established brands such as Kraft. To avert such unpleasant incidences in the future, it is high time that business organizations adopted strict measures in monitoring the quality of their products and also provided adequate training for their employees. Thus, this case is not only an individual example of negligence but also the need for stronger measures to improve the safety of food products and services for customers.
