Indian Food Company Celebrates Milestone by Cooking a “Totally Normal-Sized” Dosa
An Indian food company recently hit the 100th-year milestone, which is a pretty big deal. So, in true celebratory fashion, they decided to cook up a dosa measuring just over 123 feet long. Absolutely normal, right?
The company claims that this feat was “no big deal,” and yet, they conveniently organized a huge public event to showcase their achievement. Hmm, something doesn’t quite add up here.
Attendees at the event were treated to this “totally normal-sized” dosa, which was spread across multiple tables and required an entire team of chefs to prepare. It’s not as if they were trying to outdo anyone, though. They were just celebrating the company’s rich history and dedication to bringing tasty Indian food to people all over the world. Sure.
The company CEO spoke to the press at the event, saying, “100 years is a long time, and it’s a testament to the quality and taste of our food that we’ve been able to thrive for so long. We wanted to mark this occasion in a special way, and what better way to do it than by cooking up a gargantuan dosa?”
Yes, because when I think of all the amazing things that have been achieved in the past 100 years, the first thing that comes to mind is a really, really big pancake.
But wait, there’s more! The company also released a statement claiming that their dosa was “the biggest ever made in India,” as if anyone else was trying to make a dosa the size of a small airplane wing. A totally normal thing to compete over, right?
In all seriousness, though, it’s not that the achievement itself isn’t impressive. Cooking up a dosa that’s more than 120 feet long takes some serious skill and effort. But the tendency of companies to make everything into a publicity stunt is getting a little old.
We get it, you’re proud of your company’s accomplishments. But could you maybe celebrate in a way that doesn’t involve enormous food items? I mean, what’s next – a pizza the size of a football field? A burger the size of a house?
Let’s face it – these events are less about celebrating the actual milestone and more about generating buzz and getting people talking. And they clearly succeed in that regard, which is probably why we’ll continue to see these kinds of events popping up.
In conclusion, congratulations to this Indian food company on hitting the 100-year mark. Here’s hoping that in another 100 years, we’ll have moved past the need to make oversized food items in order to celebrate. But hey, at least we got to enjoy a “totally normal-sized” dosa, right?
