A viral video has left the internet stunned and questioning their culinary boundaries. The video, posted by @foodandstreett on Instagram, features a Kolkata street vendor preparing a unique dish dubbed “Fanta Anda Bhurji” – a scrambled egg dish cooked in Fanta.
The video has amassed a staggering 176 million views, with viewers reacting with everything from amusement to utter bewilderment. The vendor can be seen pouring a bottle of Fanta into a hot pan, followed by cracking six eggs into the fizzy, orange-flavored liquid. He then adds salt, mixes the ingredients until a milky-orange color is achieved, and incorporates chopped tomato, onion, green chillies, and cilantro. Once the Fanta liquid has mostly dried up, the “orange anda bhurji” is served on a plate made of dried leaves.
Reactions to the video have been hilarious, with some users expressing their absolute refusal to try the dish. One user commented, “No amount of money can convince me to eat that,” while Swiggy Instamart humorously inquired, “What is the procedure to cancel my internet connection?”
While some are curious about the taste, others are quick to joke about the dish. One commenter quipped, “That’s how moms think how you will cook when you’re moving out,” while another joked, “Relax guys, veggies daalkar healthy hogya [Relax guys, it’s healthy because of the veggies].”
Whether or not this unique “Fanta Anda Bhurji” will catch on remains to be seen. But one thing is certain: this viral video has certainly sparked a conversation about the strange and wonderful world of Indian street food.
