The owner of an Indian grocery store in Texas speaks to a man who has been filming his store and accusing him of safety violations.
As several American influencers has started chasing Indians and Indian-origin people in Texas to film their apparent “wrongdoing” to target the community, videos from the outside of a famous Indian supermarket in Houston have now gone viral. Nick Plumb, a Texas man who even ran for Congress as a Republican, went to the supermarket for consecutive days to film how the supermarket authorities kept fruits and vegetables out in the open outside the market. Plumb followed up his visits to see if his videos made any difference and on the last day, he chanced upon the owner who nicely told Nick that he saw his videos and boxes of products were kept outside as a huge sale was going on.”Check out the third-world standards straight from the back alleys of India being demonstrated by Sangam Supermarket in North Houston. Sandwiched between two sets of dumpsters, on the hot asphalt they’re piling up one food safety violation after another and nobody seems to give a damn,” Plumb wrote. “This isn’t oversight, it’s just low standards and exactly how things are done in 3rd world markets. This has ZERO place in American grocery stores. ” On the last day of his visit, Nick said he saw the owner coming out and they struck up a conversation which was also posted. The owner told Nick that he saw his videos and that he was doing a great job spreading awareness about food safety. He also added that they did not have any space in the warehouse and so the products were left in the open, but only during the day, not at night.The man also told Nick that he has been in the US for 35 years and has been running this grocery supermarket for decades. He said he was aware of the India-hate going on in Texas and said he himself voted for President Trump in the last election and does not support illegal immigration.The man said that if the health inspector came and asked him to dump all the products, he would do that. “I never back out of problems,” the man said, asking Nick Plumb to visit his store in two days to post an update on social media.
