⚠️ Bought Whole Farm roasted Channa from Blinkit. Even after washing it multiple times, it’s still leaving yellow colour in the water 😠 Saw a page on insta - unfiltered.haribros video highlighting the same issue. Is this artificial dye or something? Not feeling safe consuming it. Blinkit please clarify... show more

@pratiba_sk How dare u post bad review, it's @fssaiindia certified. There are four things in india you cannot question, virginity of Mary and integrity of @fssaiindia and humanity of mother Teresa and peacefulness of katmullas.

In India, many a times chemical-free means free chemicals at no extra cost. Replace the word chemical with sugar/oil/salt/artificial flavours etc, the result remains the same.

Lmfao. People are so retarded. The channa is roasted with turmeric, and if you're gonna wash it like a fool, obviously it'll leave yellow colour.

#wholefarm ki already bhut complaint h beware. @letsblinkit why you are selling such fake products on your app? Is there any quality checks done for product randomly time to time?

@letsblinkit That is their own brand

@letsblinkit @grok is whole farm owned by blinkit or its parent company eternal ?

@amshilparaghu @letsblinkit Whole Farm is Blinkit’s private label brand. Blinkit is owned by Eternal Limited (formerly Zomato). So yes, it falls under Eternal. They source and stock it directly as part of their in-house offerings.

Buy kirana from your local kiranawala. He has been buying from the same wholesalers for decades - he knows which are good ones & which are fake/adulterated

I go as far as I could to ensure I am eating unadulterated food. I ask my local bhuja shop guy to prepare separately for me without adding color (he innocentaly accepts that he adds good quality food color).

You are dumb as the blink it officials who cannot respond. The chana is always roasted in turmeric powder which changes the color. There is a non turmeric roasted chana also available in market. These are traditional things.

Posted a similar issue 3 years back. No accountability taken. I have almost stopped buying from them. Here is the post

Who washes roasted chana though..?

Is quality control even a part of @letsblinkit mandate? I thought it’s merely a logistics platform like Zomato.

what will blinkit do the mistake is of the company of this product

Why are you showing the video in jump cuts. Show it properly without edits and jump cuts at normal speed. Right now, there is no way to independently verify what is being claimed here.

why is roasted channa being washed though

It is generally roasted with haldi... Could be haldi colour also

Why should Blinkit take action? Contact the manufacturer and proceed with them

Their whole farm product range is shit, and they always promote it at the top. Maybe it’s their own brand, I think. Never buy any Whole Farm products shitty quality and artificially colored items.

Whole farm products are very bad. Never buy them. I’ve also had a bad experience with other grains. Not good.

Cashew nuts you soak. You get starch. Any brand. It's original brown colour would come out.

There's a reason why whole farm is far cheaper than others Its all cheap quality, and blinkit promotes it

@Indirakkdi They sprinkle salted turmeric water on this channa.

It’s auramine O adulteration. Whenever there’s an extra yellow hue and a crumbly texture in roasted chana, it usually points to it. Better avoid packaged ones, go for local or homemade.

Wholefarm is the worst food brand selling duplicate products. They sell at low cost, and give lowest grade products. I bought indrayani rice from them, and the smell went away a while after opening the packet. It had no fragrance or texture like the indrayani rice.

@printatprithvi Requesting you to please stop playing with the health of Indian citizens. I, myself have faced such issues and got misled because of items being for long in kitchen shelves. I've one more video that's relevant

Who would have guessed mixing turmeric with water gives yellow water? 🤯

In India we can sell someone's potty as well. Just pack them neatly. By putting face ingredients.

This looks like turmeric powder or salted haldi water used during roasting. Many traditional roasted chana batches do this for flavor and color. That said, persistent yellow runoff is a common complaint with packaged snacks in India. Some brands have been flagged for banned dyes like Auramine O in the past. Best to source from a trusted local bhujiawala who roasts fresh without extras, or stick to plain unroasted chana you prepare yourself. Stay safe.

When black currents r soaked it leaves purple colour and makes water sweet to drink it is a natural colour same goes with roasted Chana may times turmeric and salt is added while roasting can’t say much on this brand though

Bhai this yellow dye is called Auramine.. It is adulterated in chana, dals etc. It causes bladder cancer

Chutiya get it checked with a laboratory. Turmeric powder is yellow and you cannot wash it off in one go. Chuityas everywhere

@letsblinkit Also please be careful, Blinkit gives expired or near expiry products always. Have had bad experience many time. Hence stopped ordering from them.

I have had bad experience with whole farm once. Never ordered from that brand again.

Hm krte hai consume pr hmare yhan local shops bhi hain, wahan se leke aate hain.

Don't trust ratings. They have been compromised, including IMDB ratings.

Nothing will be happening @letsblinkit @blinkitcares, they’ll never take any responsibility (based on my previous experience) of anything. Price is also higher as compared to other options available in market. केवल मजबूरी में यूज करता हू, else its not worth full.

Yes bro whole farm rosted chahna has a problem I know it, Don't know what blinkit is doing
