Johnson, in his post, said, "A lot of people ask me what I do about food when I travel. The first rule is this: food is guilty until proven innocent. This is why I’ve brought with me to India every calorie I’ll eat for six days."

The influencer listed items like longevity mixes, macadamia nut bars, lentils, pea soup, and matcha, which were according to the meticulously tested Blueprint diet. 

Johnson said that he didn't take specific precautions because he was visiting India but because he was concerned about the global food supply. 

Here's how netizens reacted to the post

His post received more than eight lakh views. 

"Destroying actual quality of life in hopes it may increase quantity of life is peak 21st-century foolishness. I pity this guy for the life he must lead," said one user.

"If you go to India and don’t eat the food, it doesn’t count as a visit," wrote another user. 

"Bro, are you telling me you’re going to India and not trying any local food? You deserve a gold medal for this sacrifice," commented a third user.
