The Internet reacts

Social media users quickly responded to the video and expressed their displeasure at the sight of the worm-infested pizza. Some joked about it casually. Many expressed concerns about Food safety standards and hygiene practices in restaurants and food delivery services.“Local pizzas are usually only prepared with these hygiene regulations… so I never order from these local shops.”

“I'm assuming it doesn't come from well-known pizzerias. But it also made me think about why small grocery stores can’t grow big… It’s about achieving big goals with sound practices.”
