US-based Indian mom faces backlash for preparing a week’s meal in advance: ‘New generation is turning out to be more misogynist’

But instead of appreciation, Madhavi was slammed by many netizens. People called her “lazy,” accused her of feeding her family “stale” food, and questioned why she couldn’t cook fresh meals daily. Others argued that her approach clashed with Ayurvedic principles – ignoring the fact that freezing and reheating food is a practical choice for many living abroad.

Despite the trolls, support poured in too. Krish Ashok, author of Masala Lab and a popular Instagram creator, publicly backed Madhavi, helping amplify her video and call out the misogyny driving much of the hate.

On Reddit, user @National_Holobird reshared her video and said: “She’s a US-based creator who makes videos of her meal prep. This recent video of hers got so much hate from privileged idiots who think fresh hot food is their birthright and have zero acknowledgement for the labour women (wife/mom/domestic help) that goes into it.”

Several others, too, joined in to defend Madhavi. One user wrote, “Although she is cooking for her family, I believe she is working as well, but people want her to have a full-time 2nd shift for household chores.” Another pointed out, “What’s funny is most commenters are men who probably don’t even know where the kitchen is. And some hateful women who are just waiting to be picked by these men.”
