Snacking is an essential part of Indian culture. We drool just thinking about snacks with our evening Chai. A quick nibble and a delicious snack revitalise us, but we get so caught up in the daily work grind that we neglect ourselves and our needs.
Because most of us are so caught up in the rat race of life, work has become so demanding that the concept of self-care has been pushed to the bottom of the priority list. People's self-awareness has increased in recent years, so we are now focusing on self-care not only to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but also to thrive in a multi-tasking work environment. The realisation that practising self-care is critical for one's physical, emotional, and mental well-being has resulted in an increase in wise lifestyle choices. We are, after all, what we eat, and making mindful snacking choices becomes an important part of our self-care routine.
As a result, the best way to practise self-care is to indulge in a snack that is both chatpata and nourishing. Though Samosa, Pakode, and Chaats are at the top of the list of "India's Favorite Snacks," there are many nutritious snacking options that are equally appealing.
