An individual wrote, "Copper sulphate dosa."

A second added, "Horrifying. Blue and filled with junk.

Overall a poison crepe."

A third commented, "Dosa is one of the best dishes south Indians have perfected. It is made with fermented white rice and easy on your gut. But people find innovative ways to spoil it."

A third shared, "This guy needs to be arrested, please."

"The addition of colour will appeal to customers to this stall, but none of them would enquire about the colour which is being used in the preparation. It should be a thumb rule nowadays. If food is being added with any unnecessary ingredients, simply avoid it. Keep it simple," posted a fourth.
