IS PACKAGED FOOD A NECESSITY?


A mountaineer on his way to the peak feels hungry. From where is he supposed to get food? He doesn’t have his loving mom and that ‘ghar ka khana’ He pulls out a cup of ready to eat noodles, pours in some warm water and the lip smacking snack is ready!
 Let’s start with blowing up certain myths.
Myth number1, people think that the quality of packaged food is compromised with. I would like to state that the quality of all these products is taken care of very seriously. The hygiene is looked after and the products are under stringent controls complete with the AGMARK sign.
Myth number2, we think that the ready to eat packages are costly. In simple words—they are not!
Packaged food is very convenient and is easily available in every grocery store. It serves to people from different age groups --- from pregnant mothers to small kids to sportspersons, all with different nutritional requirements.
Today everybody is busy 24x7 and don’t have much time for themselves. Our work keeps us so engrossed the whole day so from where are we supposed to find out the time to cook? This is where packaged food comes to the rescue. It is a one time cook dish. Empty out the contents in a pan- let it cook- and the box is disposable. It is a boon for people who have just started to cook. But, that’s not all; it is a blessing for housewives as well. Suppose a guest arrives unannounced, what do you do?  You bring a ready-to-cook pack, cook and serve it.
Do minute mein khushiyan deni waali meri maggi” is a messiah for all. And if you think all I am talking about is junk, then think again! What about buttermilk, probiotic drinks and the soybean products available in the market? They are the healthiest of all!
Packaged food is a savior for our soldiers on the borders, rangers on Antarctic missions, and the army men in Siachen—worlds highest battleground.the
The milkman of India Verghese Kurien laid the foundation of India’s cooperative dairy model. He made possible a fair- priced pouch of high quality milk available at your doorstep every morning, or otherwise we would still be standing in front of buffaloes with a bucket in our hands.
They’ve made road trips easier. In cases of emergency like floods packaged food saves the lives of thousands of people.
Plus, it is tasty and there is no pretence in that!
Thus, packaged food is a necessity and not a trend and is a blessing for all!!
