Zomato co-founder Deepinder Goyal recently announced the launch of the App's latest feature - Zomato Instant. This feature promises fresh food delivery at your doorstep in just 10 minutes. However, since its announcement, the Zomato Instant feature drew criticism on various aspects, especially on the grounds of delivery partner's safety. Addressing the criticism, Deepinder Goyal took to Twitter to share a post clarifying that they are not putting any pressure on the delivery partners to deliver the food faster. In his tweet, he also listed down some of the food items that will be available through Zomato Instant service. And guess, which food item tops the list? It's our favourite bowl of Maggi. Yes, you heard us.
"Hello Twitter, good morning! I just want to tell you more about how 10-minute delivery works, and how it is as safe for our delivery partners as 30-minute delivery. This time, please take 2 minutes to read through this (before the outrage)," Goyal's Twitter thread read. "Again, 10-minute delivery is as safe for our delivery partners as 30-minute delivery," he added.

Maggi toh banaane ke hi 10 minutes lag jaate hai ... most misleading ad out there ... those 2 minutes written on the packaging.— Prasanna Sundaram (@dishooom) March 22, 2022
