'Thanks, IRCTC': Man orders 'first-ever' meal on train, finds live cockroach living its best life inside box
Indian Railways never disappoints pessimists it seems. A?video recently shared on Reddit shows a man opening his meal box, only to find a live cockroach livin' it up inside. Seriously put off, OP took to Reddit to vent his anger. And the internet joined in on the fun with equally sarcastic comments. Here's what went on.

User?Aggravating-Wrap-266?posted the video on the?r/indianrailways?subreddit two?days ago. In it, he recorded himself opening the box of his 'first-ever' meal aboard an Indian train. He then zooms in closer to the desert, a single serving of gulab jamun, to show a live cockroach nicely moving around on it. "For the first time I ordered dinner from IRCTC and this is what I got :) A living cockroach," OP captioned the post.
This video is just one of many such incidents highlighting the lack of cleanliness in trains in India. That coupled with constant delays, has only managed to irk the public more.
How did the internet react?

Posted on the Indian Railways subreddit, the post collected 400 upvotes and comments to match. "Crunchy protein rich diet," wrote one. "Railways : you can't complain about it as you are been served expensive non veg thali that too so fresh that it's live there in plate," joked a second. "That's why I don't eat anything that is cooked in railways or stations. Either i take my own food or just buy packaged snacks. I will fast for the day if I don't have anything," was a third person's advice. "Dmnn Olympia level protein diet nice railways," a fourth poked fun.
