Burping on a burger has become a norm not only with the gen Z and millennials but with all age groups. If not the burger, they are drooling over a pizza or even momos. Yes, fast food has become the preferred delicacy for Indians. The fast food concept, it is believed, originated in the west to cater to people with shortage of time for satiating their hunger. However, if one looks at the Indian food industry's history, one finds that sweet shops selling snacks has existed at any given point in Indian history.

From ancient Indian history to the present day scenario the key of the Indian households, for serving guests who have come for a quick visit, has been to serve them with snacks like samosas, kachoris, Dhoklas, etc and sweets like gulab jamuns. This food, it is found, has been an integral part of Indian culture since long.
