Amid the grand Ambani bash over the weekend, and Instagram and Facebook facing a global outage on March 5, social media users kept themselves busy over a picture of Parle-G biscuits. Make no mistake, because this isn’t the original packet that has sent the internet into overdrive, but a viral picture of ‘Dark Parle-G’ biscuits.
To begin with, this packet of ‘Dark Parle-G’, in all probability, could be AI-generated because Parle has not confirmed the authenticity of the product. There is no information regarding ‘Dark Parle-G’ on Parle Products’ social media accounts, and neither has the company reacted to the viral picture.
Social media, meanwhile, is flooded with ‘Dark Parle-G’ memes, while several users gushed over the picture of the Parle-G girl on the new packet of biscuits.
Most of the memes also suggest that Dark Parle-G was created by Google Gemini.
Parle-G, a biscuit brand manufactured by Parle Products in India, is one of the world’s most popular brands. Until the 1980s, Parle-G was known as ‘Parle Gluco’ Biscuits. The ‘G’ in Parle-G originally stood for ‘Glucose’. Their brand slogan changed to ‘G for Genius’ later.

A picture circulating on social media of a supposed new variant of the iconic Parle-G biscuit, named ‘Dark Parle-G,’ has ignited a wave of excitement and speculation among netizens. The emergence of a new flavor in Parle-G, a staple tea-time snack in India, is a significant event due to its long history of being a household favorite.
Despite the buzz surrounding the image, Parle Products, the manufacturer of Parle-G, has not officially confirmed the existence of ‘Dark Parle-G’. Social media platforms, like Twitter, have been flooded with discussions, memes, and speculation about the possibility of a chocolate-flavored version of the beloved biscuit.
While the original tweet showcasing the purported product garnered nearly 10 lakh views, Parle Products has remained silent on the matter, neither acknowledging nor denying the authenticity of ‘Dark Parle-G’. Some users are questioning the legitimacy of the image, suggesting it may have been digitally altered or generated by AI, citing the lack of clarification as a reason for speculation.
Responses from social media users have been mixed, reflecting a range of opinions and emotions. While some individuals expressed excitement at the prospect of a new flavor addition to the Parle-G lineup, others voiced skepticism and a preference for the classic variant. One user lamented, “My childhood is ruined now,” while another speculated, “Nice, must be with chocolate.”— CoconutShawarma (@CoconutShawarma)
