Videos of street vendors selling food items have always captivated foodies. However, a street vendor recently left foodies furious after a video of him selling open packets of Maggi widely circulated on social media. The now-viral video was shared on Instagram by the handle Chatore_Broothers.
The video opens with the vendor pushing his ‘thela’ through a bustling market. He then weighs the Maggi and packs it with the tastemaker packets. Besides Maggi, he can also be seen selling open packets of pasta. The caption on the video read, ” Kis Kis Ko Raat Ke 1 Baje wali Maggie Kis Kis Ko Apni College Ki Canteen wali Maggie Kis kis Ko Pahado Wali Maggie Kis kis Ko Yaad Aagayi (Who wants midnight Maggie? Who wants their college canteen’s Maggie? Who wants the Maggie from the mountains? Who all remembered?”)

The video garnered more than 39 million views on the platform. Reacting to it, a user wrote, “Beware .. expired Maggie.” Another user argued, “Guys maggi never expire, nestle wrote this on website. You will not get sick by eating expired maggi the only difference will be that the taste will decrease as spices will get old. But again this Guy is feeling maagi openly and not air tight soooo it can go bad in some time.”
“With extra dust and pollution,” the third user wrote. “Makes no sense,” another user reacted.
Earlier, a video of a street vendor making Maggi with coffee left foodies in disgust. The viral video showed the vendor preparing the bizarre concoction by adding milk and coffee to Maggi. He starts with boiling milk in a pan and boiling Maggi noodles. He then adds tastemaker, vegetables, coffee powder, and turmeric powder into the pan.
