Alarmed by recent reports of questionable ingredients in baby food, protein powders, and even masalas, The Morning Brief podcast delves into the state of India's processed food industry and its product safety system. Host Kiran Somvanshi dissects the issue with Dr. Arun Gupta, convenor of Nutrition Advocacy in Public Interest or NAPi, Award-winning journalist Michael Moss, author of ‘Sugar, Salt, Fat’ and ET’s Ratna Bhushan. Together they probe into the condition of India’s broken food safety. Is it a case of not having food safety laws? Or is it about their poor enforcement? What prompts multinational companies from adopting discriminatory food standards across their different markets? And what should we in India be most worried about? Tune in to this must-listen episode!
