Do you like eating sweets? I guess you do. Our country celebrates
like hundreds of festivals throughout the year. And if it’s a
festive season having no sweets in the house will be absurd.
But before you eat those sweets be careful about the ingredients.
I mean it may contain some substances which may make you a
guest for the doctors. You may end up celebrating your festival in
a hospital.
Mixing of things is the evil habit that lies in many corrupt people
trying to gain profit than its actual value. Adulteration of fuels and
food, it is being practiced in many places. Those imbeciles add
adulterants in petrol and foods risking people’s health and life.
Adulterants are toxic materials and consumption of adulterated
food is poisoning.
India is ranked 79 for quality and safety in global food security
index. Well this ranking clearly shows how safe eating our
food is. At least the educated moms should be careful, because
there’s no love in this world that can surpass a mother’s love
for its child.
Well let’s give a brief about some adulteration of substance
taking place.
In water adulteration, Chandigarh showed 100% adulteration,
Jharkhand did 75%, Andhra Pradesh did 70%, Karnataka 66%
and Tamil Nadu 58%. So next time when you visit those places
just brace yourself.
In case of milk adulteration Gujarat, Delhi, West Bengal,
Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan showed reports of adulteration.
Himachal Pradesh showed 92% of milk samples being
contaminated. Reports from Assam showed, milk being
contaminated with detergent powders and urea.
Now coming to the backbone of festivals, sweets and milk
products. Milk is a major ingredient for many sweets.
And that milk is being contaminated with water, chalk,
urea, caustic soda, etc. and well these substances are not
going to do any good to you. Similarly potato and vanaspati
have been found to adulterate ghee. The silver topping we find
on top of most of sweets is often aluminum. Saffron thread
that decorates sweets is often corn hair.
So eventually looking at all the ingredients you’ll find
nothing but the recipe to stomach ache and diseases.
