Not surprisingly, the video has won the hearts of Indian foodies from around the world.
While taking a bite of the jalebi, Soy says, “Very sweet a lot of the syrup taste. I like the texture. It kind of reminds me of deeper-fried funnel cake. Wow, look at all that syrup. It’s so pretty (sic).” The video was uploaded on her Instagram handle @foodwithsoy, with the caption, “Trying Jalebi for the first time! It’s known as the national sweet of India.
