The Indian consumers’ days of consuming fried, sugarfilled snacks filled with harmful ingredients are long gone. With increasing health consciousness, food consumption across meals including snacking, has taken a healthier turn. From fitness junkies to the ever-busy corporate professionals, everyone is on the hunt for organic ingredients in food they consume. Whether it be storebought sweets and savories, breakfast foods, or even ingredients for home cooking, consumers demand genuinely organic products. This massive transformation has echoed throughout the food industry. Permeating into the mithai and namkeens vertical, it has compelled known brands to incorporate natural ingredients like dry fruits and spices.
