While we are not in dearth of variety of foods, why our people madly run after such imported items which do not have either the details of the ingredients used or valid certification from the competent authority? However, the FSSAI must look into the matter and ban import of food items without their authorisation. more

All foods imported into India must meet the FSSAI standards. This is the law. All food & beverage (including alochol) imports are tested on arrival at the port/airport and only after the test results confirm that they comply with FSSAI standards are they permitted for clearance. Look for importers name and address and FSSAI licence number on the pack. In case this is missing, then its safer not to buy. more
