Zepto supplied expired product yesterday loaded with fungus. This is extremely serious, irresponsible and pathetic. Violation of food safety act ! On raising the issue it simply returned the money. @ZeptoNow @fssaiindia @jagograhakjago

Wasps inject their eggs into Drosophila larvae. The eggs mature in the larva, consuming the latter. But some larvae are able to escape such a fate by killing the wasp eggs + they can pass the abilities too! 1/2 @ShaguftaK_2711 @Ravina2_Saini @RunaHamid @3RakeshMishra
