Chow Sureng Rajkonwar, a content creator, shared a video that has sparked outrage against the quick-commerce platform Blinkit. In the viral clip, which has garnered thousands of views on Instagram, he reveals that he allegedly received a tray of rotten eggs through the app.
The video shows him cracking open the eggs, only to find that they are discoloured and emit a foul smell. He went on to crack more eggs to show a black liquid-like consistency flowing out. “Dekhiye pura kaala-kaala kya nikal rha hai (Look at it! What’s this black liquid coming out of the eggs?),” he said.

Soon after the video gained traction, several social media users shared a similar experience with Blinkit, with one user claiming, “I have had a similar experience with Blinkit, Zepto as well as Instamart. I’ve now switched back to local markets. God knows what I was consuming.” Another user commented, “Yes same experience when I bought the 30 eggs tray but when I buy the 10 eggs tray the eggs are good. No idea why.”
“Had a similar incident with @letsblinkit recently. Got rotten dates delivered. Although they did refund but I will think twice to purchase again,” a third user shared. “Always buy groceries from local shops as products are sold off regularly and you also get chance to see the expiry before you buy,” a fourth user commented.
In March, a customer accused Blinkit of misleading consumers by delivering products that weighed less than what was advertised on the app. The customer shared their experience on Reddit, claiming that a packet of grapes they received was significantly underweight compared to the 500g listed on the Blinkit website.
