In today's India, it is the Inspector/Police Raj ,that decides whether a product/service is safe/eatable/usable or not. If hafta/monthly reach them ,the product/service is certified as good/safe,otherwise not. But the fact remains,that what to talk of alcohol,cigarette/ bidi,gutka pan masala,EVEN bread,butter,ghee,refined or any other oil, sugar,salt,milk,SWEETS,curd,cheese,pakoda,samosa,tikki,cold/ soft drinks,pickles/jams or any fast/junk/packed/preserved/ processed food/juices, OR EVEN the fruits vegetables n honey, grains/pulses are all chemically/artificially grown,tempered/GM foods or treated with insecticides/pesticides and even mineral/RO water is not safe. BUT STILL THE COCONUT AND ITS WATER,SUGARCANE,SUGAR BEET AND ALL SEASONAL/FRESH VEGETABLES/FRUITS(WHICH ARE CHEAPER ALSO DURING FULL SEASON) CAN BE USED/TAKEN TAKING CERTAIN PRECAUTIONS LIKE DIPPING IN WATER N VINEGAR (SIRKA) OR SALT FOR THREE HOURS AND THEN FLUSH WASHING/WIPING BEFORE USE. A month back,it was in news that any oil when heated for frying/processing things,becomes completely poisonous after the fifth time heating. COMMERCIAL USERS SHALL NEVER THROW THE OIL AFTER FIRST USE,DUE TO PROFIT MOTIVE. Hence,IT IS AN ESTABLISHED FACT THAT all market fried/processed/preserved PRODUCTS are poisonous,also because they are not fresh. It does not need any testing/certification from any lab/authority. SO FRY AT HOME,IF YOU HAVE TO, AND IN GOOD COOKING OIL, AND DON'T RE-USE THAT OIL FOR FRYING/COOKING. CAN USE IT ELSEWHERE.
