When Maggi meets Italian taste buds: Wife's comfort food gets SHOCKING review from husband. Watch viral video
A viral Instagram video shared by UK-based couple Surbhi and Dario shows an Italian man's first reaction to tasting India's beloved instant noodles, Maggi. In the clip, Dario is visibly confused after taking a bite, describing the texture as 'smashable' and lacking flavor, and stating, 'Pasta doesn't melt… here you don't taste.' The humorous moment sparked a wave of reactions online, with many defending Maggi as an emotional staple in Indian households while others laughed at the cultural clash. Tired of too many ads?

However, Dario's reaction to the dish has triggered widespread amusement and debate on social video begins with Surbhi serving Dario a plate of homemade Maggi. The overlay reads, 'POV – You served Maggi to an Italian man.' Dario takes a cautious bite and pauses, visibly puzzled. His confusion quickly becomes the central highlight of the his first taste, Dario looks up and asks, 'What is this?' Surbhi replies, 'It's like spaghetti,' trying to draw a cultural comparison. However, Dario appears unconvinced. He remarks, 'I don't know how to describe what I have in my mouth. It's like something smashable and without consistency. Some spicy flavour. It's not textured, it's just melting in my mouth. Pasta doesn't melt. Pasta, you bite, you chew, you feel it, you taste. Here you don't taste.' The video closes with the humorous text overlay: 'Rated: -1/10 for emotional damage.'In the caption, Surbhi candidly admits, 'Not every cultural exchange is a success story, I guess.

A different viewer noted, 'Maggi is an emotion.'Some defended Dario's reaction, attributing it to cultural differences. 'Don't try this in India publicly,' joked one commenter. Another said, 'You're not supposed to offer Maggi to an Italian. They are very specific about cooking, especially Italian foods.' Others questioned the comparison itself, asking, 'Why on earth is he comparing instant noodles with pasta or spaghetti???'While many viewers found the moment hilarious, others used it to reflect on broader cultural differences in food preferences. The contrast between India's instant noodle staple and Italy's deeply-rooted pasta traditions sparked a lively discussion.

Indians react to Karan Johar's new reality show, The Traitors. ‘Have some mercy on us'
'What is this ameero ka off season Splitsvilla?' wrote one Instagram user under Karan Johar's post. Another one wrote: 'The game we played on school trips and holidays is now basically a reality show.' The trailer has generated great interest among Indian viewers, who have all started sharing their two cents on social media. New Delhi: The highly-anticipated Indian version of reality show The Traitors will see Karan Johar play host to 20 contestants. The trailer, which dropped on Thursday, will see 'Rebel Kid' Apoorva Mukhija match her wit and cunning with actor Arjun Kapoor's sister Anshula Kapoor, Shilpa Shetty's husband Raj Kundra, Maheep Kapoor from Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, and other celebrities. People have also started naming their favourite contestants, such as influencer Apoorva Mukhija; others have compared it to the multiplayer online game 'Among Us'. Johar's post has garnered over 23,000 likes in five hours, and has 21,700 reshares so far. The Traitors The treachery and trickery will unfold at Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. The show will stream on Amazon Prime Video starting 12 June, with new episodes every Thursday at 8 pm. The three-minute trailer also features Telugu actress Lakshmi Manchu, and television stars Jannat Zubair, Jasmin Bhasin, and Karan Kundrra. All the contestants have a spicy backstory. Mukhija's remarks on Samay Raina's YouTube show India's Got Latent with podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia triggered social media outrage and led to multiple FIRs. Uorfi Javed is known for her daring costumes and her own reality TV show, Follow Kar Lo Yaar (2024). The Traitors will also feature fashion commentator Sufi Motiwala, who is represented by Karan Johar's Dharma Cornerstone Agency (DCA). They all have a single objective: to win the Rs 1 crore prize money after completing a series of physical and psychological missions. Players marked 'innocents' must find and eliminate the 'traitors' from among them, who will be secretly chosen at the beginning of the show by host Karan Johar. The reality show is based on the Dutch series De Verraders (2021), which has iterations in 30 countries. The American version is hosted by Alan Cumming and the British version by Claudia Winkleman. Game of trust, deception In the trailer, Karan Johar is dressed head-to-toe in a black, magician-like ensemble. Viewers are privy to snatches of contestants trying to figure out who the traitors are. In the clip, Uorfi Javed vows to shave her head if found to be a 'traitor', while rapper Raftaar, also a contestant on the show, says that he will 'stop rapping'. 'Yaha trust is rare, but dhoka everywhere (Trust is rare here, but deception is everywhere),' declares Johar. Some people, however, have criticised the Bollywood filmmaker for taking up the project. 'You'll do anything at this point to avoid directing a movie…who are you Riri? Wrote one Instagram user. Another one expressed disappointment at the content itself: 'Indians are fed up of seeing content like this! With the likes of Karan Johar and others! Same thing, old wine, new bottle. Have some mercy on us and give us good content.' (Edited by Zoya Bhatti)

He stressed that his concerns are rooted in their past interactions and specific actions taken by Levesque that caused him to lose respect. Reports suggest that MVP is now listed in the 'Alumni' section of WWE, and his latest run with the company ended last month after his contract expired.

MVP said that he will delve deeper into these issues on his upcoming podcast, " Marking Out with MVP and Dwayne Swaezey.
