Reading the news about me being sued for doing the Maggie commercial over 12 years ago ? 12 years ago ? How does that happen ?

First beef. Then Maggie. Now eggs. This is a huge conspiracy. Government is indirectly trying to convert everyone into Jains.

Man, I have so many cool memories about Maggi. I still remember Harbhajan telling Symonds, "Teri Maggi".

Maggi has lead. That's good, isn't it? In case there's nuclear war, lead will protect you from radiation. Nobel prize to Maggi, I say

After lead has been found in Maggi, Nestle should start calling themselves 'Nestlead'.

When did Preity Zinta even endorse Maggi? Was there a product placement in Ishkq in Paris, because that's the only way I could've missed it.
