Since being shared, the post has amassed over 55.8K views and 857 likes. A number of foodies reacted to the photo of kulfi idli and expressed their thoughts about it in the comments section. While some argued that it would take away the originality of the South Indian breakfast, others found it innovative and were willing to try it. Check out some of the reactions below: 

"Looking good. New innovation and all that is good but the age-old tradition of having idli as it is, and enjoying it with your hands, that experience is divine. Everything has to be innovated into something new, not sure if this kulfi idli can match. Just my opinion!" 

"No. Such things. Please stop making such things under the name of innovation. Please keep the originality of South Indian cuisine." 

"Looking mouth-wateringly delicious." 

"Very innovative indeed." 

"Love the presentation. Is it available in Udupi? If yes, where?" 

This is not the only time idli has been in the news. Recently, a video of lava idli went viral on the internet. This bizarre dish was made with a combination of idli and golgappa. Indian foodies were not happy with this innovation. Read more about it here.
