If you've ever eaten a samosa, pakora, or vada pav served in a newspaper, India's food safety regulator or FSSAI wants you to think twice.
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has renewed its warning against using newspapers to wrap, serve, or store food, saying the practice exposes consumers to harmful chemicals and contaminants. The advisory comes after authorities took action against a popular vada pav vendor in Mumbai who was allegedly using newspapers for food packaging.
