A Bengaluru woman has claimed that Swiggy Instamart sent her a Datura fruit as a freebie without a warning label. In an Instagram reel, she said every part of the fruit is poisonous and could cause coma or death if consumed. She added that Datura is used in pooja offerings, not as food. The video was posted by the Instagram handle K Syeda Moosavi and received more than 3,000 views in three days. Times Now reports that the post drew calls for action, with some users saying people could mistake the fruit for an edible one. However, the publication said it could not independently confirm the details or authenticate the post. There is no reported response from Swiggy in the source.
