In Kanpur, a chocolate factory dumps expired chocolates near a garbage site, and a crowd quickly gathers to collect the discarded cartons, according to multiple reports and viral video footage. Locals and onlookers are seen carrying away the sweets off a highway/roadside area after the incident comes to public attention.
Residents cited by outlets say the chocolates had expired in 2024 and were thrown away at or near the roadside garbage location. Social workers also warn that consuming expired packaged food can pose health risks, even though some people still take the products. The coverage focuses on the scene itself—crowd behavior and the viral nature of the video—while largely relying on local accounts about the expiry date and the context of the dumping.
