Our world has shrunk into the mobile screens a long back in terms of food as well. Here is an interesting Zomato encounter, which received mixed reactions and comments among the netizens, which will eventually lead us to question our own choices at times.
Heavy rains hit Mumbai on Wednesday that flooded the roads and led to the traffic jams in major part of the city. Amidst the chaos a woman’s social media post over Zomato delivery during the rain gained traction.
So, a woman has ordered Butter Chicken on Wednesday using Zomato amidst the flood and unfortunately, the food delivery partner’s bike broke down. However, the responsible delivery agent walked to deliver the food in the heavy rain all drenched. Appreciating the efforts of the delivery partner, the woman shared this interesting encounter on Threads.

“@zomato We ordered food and Rahat’s bike broke down and that man walked to two different locations and finished his delivery in this heavy rain all drenched! We should really support delivery staff who are on the streets in heavy rains making our lives convenient. It’s a privilege! Thank you Rahat! #MumbaiRains,” the post read.
But this post of the Zomato user got mixed reactions and the comment section was filled with different perspectives from the people. Some targeted the woman’s action of ordering the food in heavy rain without considering the situation of the delivery partner.
On the other hand some users expressed their gratitude towards the deliver heros stating “Kudos to our daily delivery heroes. They truly make our lives more convenient. (To those yapping abt it: Yes yes, it is their job. Nevertheless, it’s nice to APPRECIATE that while they’re doing their “job”, it is giving us more free time to do other things/chores/fun times)”

And other user suggested the woman to learn to cook, the comment reads ” Learn to cook at least in these heavy rains.” And other user said “I’d think 10 times before ordering something in such torrential rains.” This discussion even turned to ‘Vegan, vegetarian’ concepts as an user wrote “first priority: turn vegetarian and then vegan.”
Some even slammed the post for glorifying or emphasizing people who do their job and expressed their concern over the use of social media to unnecessarily empathising things which aren’t a matter of concern.
Fed up with the endless discussion, the woman felt that these discussions are being toxic and wrote “I’m closing down this thread for myself and won’t be responding anymore. Today has been a masterclass of human behaviour on social media. I’d heard of toxicity here, but didn’t know what it felt like. I’m glad I’ve come out of it unaffected”
