Amid the ongoing controversy about the so-called advisory about the ‘samosa-jalebi’ carrying cigarette packet-like health warnings, celebrity nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar has reacted to the news on social media. While there were several media reports about the claim, the Press Information Bureau (PIB) on Tuesday issued a fact check stating that display of 'Sugar' and 'Oil' boards is general advisory to make people aware of hidden fats and excess sugar in all food products, and not specifically to any particular food product.
However, Diwekar reminds of an age-old health and nutrition factor that is often ignored and the need for people to pay attention to the food they consume in their every day life as it is the need of the hour.
