According to TasteAtlas, Jal Jeera is the worst rated Indian food, followed by Gajak, Thengai Sadam, Panta Bhat and Aloo Baingan. Thandai, Achappam, Mirchi Ka Salan, Malpua and Upma are also on the list. People criticised the list saying, "Unfortunately this list is negligence max," and "Guys, you need to actually ask Indians to rate the dishes."
