One such service provider is Zomato. The company is not new to online outrage and has regularly faced consumer backlash online.

In a post on X (previously Twitter), user Sumit Behal claimed that Zomato is supplying restaurants with "fake paneer" made from vegetable oils. According to Behal, these restaurants then serve the paneer to customers without providing any disclaimer about its true nature. India loves paneer dishes and restaurants sell fake paneer made with vegetable oils without any disclaimer They made you believe that you are eating healthy food by eating varieties of paneer dishes over junk food This is being sold on website of Zomato for restaurants pic.twitter.com/GJh3dspiy3 — Sumit Behal (@sumitkbehal) October 20, 2024 "India loves paneer dishes and restaurants sell fake paneer made with vegetable oils without any disclaimer. They make you believe that you are eating healthy food by eating a variety of paneer dishes over junk food. This is being sold on the website of Zomato for restaurants," Behal wrote in his post. Behal also posted screenshots on the product page. The product in question was labelled Analogue Paneer on the website. It has raised concerns due to its description by the manufacturer as "fit for tikka and gravy paneer dishes." This description has led some to question its authenticity. In a follow-up post, Behal also clarified that his claims were based on a YouTube video shared by the All About Nutrition channel that highlighted the issue first.

Paneer is not healthy if consumed in large amounts of saturated fat. — Anshul Sadhale (@AnshulGains) October 20, 2024 Disappointing to see this being a vegetarian. I'll stick to home food now. — Tanya Rajhans (@tanyarajhans7) October 20, 2024 No wonder that restaurants will use this to reduce cost. Thumb rule is - If you are ordering in food, consider it junk. Any nutritional benefit, will be an added advantage. — Priyanka Gupta | Veg.Fit (@priyankaiitk) October 21, 2024 While some supported his concerns, others called for more clarity and evidence regarding the product in question.
