The internet was shocked after watching a video showing a JCB machine being put to use in the most unexpected way – not at a construction site, but in a kitchen setup.
The now-viral video, shared by Instagram user Nirajad Nirajad, captured visuals of the heavy-duty machine doubling as a cooking ladle, stirring a massive vessel brimming with dal. The sight of the giant yellow arm mixing food left people disgusted.

Social media, of course, wasted no time turning the moment into comedy gold while also raising health concerns. Many viewers were left speechless at this “pathbreaking innovation,” while others couldn’t stop laughing at the absurdity of it all.
Memes comparing the JCB to a master chef began flooding timelines, with one user joking that “this is peak jugaad.”
Jokes apart, though, people raised hygiene and safety concerns, questioning if a machine built for digging dirt should ever come near food. People flooded the post with comments on how unhygienic the whole ordeal is, and how it can cause problems to people consuming the dal.
Reactions following this post noted users commenting “People will taste the goodness of swamp water in their dal” while another chimed in saying, “This is disgusting.”
The Instagram user also posted a follow up video, showcasing more behind-the-scenes visuals of the JCB stirring dal, and rotis being transported in huge carrier trucks.

Several social media users also urged the Food Safety & Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) to take action against those involved.
