These seismic changes not only encompass the type of food consumed but also the way it’s produced, prepared, and stored, leading to a staggering increase in food allergies on a global scale. So far, India has remained relatively immune to this epidemic, mainly due to the preservation of traditional food habits, particularly in the non-metropolitan regions.
