Eating out at restaurants or ordering food at home has become common, especially in cities. When eating out, some people may prefer to eat foods that appear to be “healthier” than typical junk food. However, a viral post on X (formerly Twitter) has raised questions about the quality of ingredients used by the restaurant. An X user shared a screenshot of “analog cheese” sold to restaurants on the Zomato Hyperpure website.

Products available on HyperPure include fresh groceries, fruits and vegetables, poultry, meat and seafood, gourmet foods, packaging, consumables and kitchen appliances.

The screenshot shows the product “Soft and Fresh Cheese (Analog), 1 Kilogram”. The product is priced at Rs 205.53/kg for 5 kg+ and Rs 207.05/kg for 3 kg+. A part of the product description shown in the screenshot includes “Made from skimmed milk” and “Suitable for tikka and gravy paneer dishes”.
Analog cheese is also called “imitation cheese” or “synthetic cheese” by many people because it is not made entirely from dairy. This type of cheese is often made from milk and vegetable oil. The cost of making this cheese is generally cheaper than traditional cheese made entirely from dairy.
The ex-post went viral, receiving over 145K views and numerous comments. To keep an eye:
