Dont eat Momos - here's why
Consumed some Momos night before only to have troubled 36 hours and did some research. Here's why we should stay away from them:
They are made with bleached maida. Momos are made with maida (refined flour) which is the starchy part of the grain after the removal of its fibrous bran. Then, it is bleached with chemicals like Azodicarbonamide, chlorinegas, benzoyl peroxide, or other bleaches. Maida has also been suspected to contain traces of alloxans, a chemical that gives it the soft, refined texture.
Bleaching chemicals that are added to maida cause much harm to the pancreas, affecting its insulin-production ability. In fact, these bleaching agents are used to make diabetes occur in rodents for laboratory testing.
Alloxans are also harmful to pancreas and are responsible for causing insulin-dependent diabetes.
Their ingredients are mostly stale/of poor quality
The vegetables and chicken used inside momos are stale or of a very poor standard. In fact, most of the chicken products that you get at unhygienic, cheap outlets test positive for E. coli bacteria, a powerful toxin that can cause severe illnesses.
Momo-chutney is too spicy
For the most part, red chillis are good for your health, that is, if they are not processed chilli powders. However, one cannot be sure about the quality used by local momo-vendors. Also, an over-consumption of spicy foods is suspected to cause bleeding hemorrhoids or piles. It may contain faecal matter.
A study by Institute of Hotel Management, Catering and Nutrition, Pusa, showed that Delhi street food - particularly samosas, golgappas, burgers and momos - contained faecal matter much beyond the permissible coliform levels (2400MPN against 50MPN). These pathogens included bacillus cereus, clostridium perfringens, staphylococcus aureus, and salmonella species. These are responsible for diarrhoea, abdominal cramps, typhoid and even, food poisoning. more

The post presents a very fearful anti-hygienic characteristic of refined flour(maida), which is largely used not only in India but all over the world for making plenty of food items and its consumption in the western countries is much more than in our country. Are not the people and the governments of those countries aware about the possible serious damage maida consumption could result in humane health? In India refined flour(maida) is used for preparation of not only momos but for bread, cookies, somosa, puri, different kind of namkins(salted items) and so on, which are largely used in house holds for decades. Since its adverse affects to humane health have now come to light, the FSSAI & other government agencies should immediately look into the issue, get the alleged facts examined and ban its use in foods, if the allegations are found true. Foods from road side stalls, cheap and unhygienic eating houses, stale & poor standard items should always be avoided as consumption thereof could create serious health issues at any point of time. more

Most of the street foods are not hyginic. But for several reasons, we prefer them. Let the food inspector occassionally examine them. more

MAIDA, SUGAR AND SALT ARE WHITE POSIONS. PLEASE AVOID THEM AS FAR AS POSSIBLE FOR SOUND HEALTH more

The maida is certainly not good for sound health. Added to that the bleaching chemicals have their role. The best way is advocate chemical free foods for all ages. Otherwise, enjoy today (young age) and repent tomorrow (old age) by spending more on the medical bills. Is that a matter of concern for good health ? more
