A recent X post about a visible problem with a bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk has left the internet abuzz. In the now-viral post, user @goooofboll shared four pictures of an opened packet of chocolate, partially still covered in its wrapper. In the photos, we see a whitish fungus-like matter spread across a part of the chocolate bar. In the other images, we see a hole and suspicious ridges on the chocolate. In the caption, the person said, “Found them like this when I opened it”. Furthermore, they have claimed, “The manufacturing of these Dairy Milk is January 2024, expiry is best before 12 months from manufacture.” Tagging the official handle of Cadbury Dairy Milk India, he asked the company to “look into this”.
