G_B_ Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 If you want purity of food me thinks zomato or any aggregation is not the way forward Either make stuff at home, or phone up the restaurant you know meets your criteria. beetle and velu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets not distract ourselves away from the point that the ullu ka charkha guy pretending to be a religous Hindu in this who ordered from Zomato is a big time Jerk. People like these make the world a complicated place. beetle, Stradlater, Mariyam and 3 others 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People like these make the world a complicated place. The world is a complicated place. I know many jewish bakeries in london who employ only jews to satisfy the needs of their client in having kosher food. These food outlets are not listed on delivery sites just cause their patrons dont want any issues with the food being delivered by a certain community. As per them there were instances where pork was mixed in with the food. I dont know how true this claim is. They do amazing bagels but it is illegal in the uk to employ people just cause of certain demographic factors. However that is circumvented. This man has a right to have his food delivered by a hindu to meet his beliefs. However zomato is clearly not the avenue for that. He should not have made use of the platform as there was no guarentee his needs would be met. Zomato right to not give him a refund.

G_B_ Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 And same with uber really. If you dont want to be driven around by a certain commumity dont use said app which allocates drivers by other criteria. You only have yourself to blame. If a critical mass of people feel the same way you do, clearly companies will cater to your needs. A relative told me that meru cabs in mumbai consisted of drivers with certain demographic characteristics people wanted to avoid. That particular app last i heard is making a big effort to shed that image. I suspect while zomato have made this a pr stunt. It might lead to folks making them a meru cab by association. Lets see how it pans out. Should have ignored this guy rather than virtue signalling. Already there is pressure on them for jhatka options.

coffee_rules Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 There is no religion in food, except honoring Halal/kosher meat. Under FoE one can refuse cabs which feature 'angry' Hanuman, but this is an outrage. Although, his reason is not apt, for Shravan , cook food at home , don't order food from Zomato . beetle, G_B_ and velu 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikred Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 The guy actually exposed the double standard of Zomato Zomato should not refund Muslims if food is non halaal Unless Zomato mentioned the food as halal even though it is not, how is it responsible for Wajid mian not bothering to check the halal-ness of the food before placing an order?Zomato chickened out in this case as all establishments do when the customer is a Muslim. Coming to the OP, I don't understand his logic. Is he assuming all Hindus will not eat meat during Sravan? If he is so paranoid about it he should just eat home food.

Its the restaurants who choose how they wished to be tagged. For instance, the halal food tag is on the insistence of the eatery. There is a statutory body that certifies if an establishment is serving halal meat and then the FSSAI also have to give their set of clearances. In the case of jhatka, does a certifying body exist? How can Zomato comply if such a body doesn't exist? Edited August 1, 2019 by Mariyam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All they have said is that would look into it. Maybe if they found that he placed the order inspite of there being no halal food tag, they would just tell him that.

It is 100% about the religion/caste of the Person, who delivered it. If someone want to avoid food due to the fear of mixing of meat/pork/non-Halal then it is fully understandable. But here the Hindu guy is not refusing the food due to it's being non-veg etc., but he is refusing for the person who brought it to him, and this is a very bad thing to do.

Alam_dar Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 In my opinion, the Zomato chief made a mistake when he wrote "Food has no Religion". Food indeed has a religion. We cannot deny that there are people who don't eat some foods due to their religious issues. That is why, when a Muslim person asked to refund the money for non-halal food, while Zomato didn't label it, then I think that it is was a correct response from Zomato to look into this matter. But the case of Uber or this Hindu guy in this case is different and not related to the food, but to the person who brought it to him. Religion could be given only this much place where one could use it for "personal" affairs. But if religion is used to judge the rights of "other people", then it becomes a crime. velu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can Zomato comply if such a body doesn't exist? which is why i said there is pressure. Ultimately if jhatka becomes a choice which influences decision then as a business they will have to work with restaurants and meat providers. Its a question of de facto and de jure. There is also pressure on Zomato to have LGBT policies in Qatar which they have in India, if indeed their owner does not care about losing custom for the sake for their ideals they need to follow through on this. It has opened a pandoras box. Which is why i said it was best they ignored this moron and not provide him a refund rather than virtue signalling. Every move this company makes is going to be heavily scrutinised in the future. Turning_track 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he fears the person bringing it to him may not be respectful of his beliefs and might tamper with it. Exactly the same reason of the Kosher Deli.
