A snack can be simply defined as a light food, something that is eaten in between regular meals. Sometimes they also serve as a substitute for a meal, more so for people who keep busy schedules, which allow little time for full meals. Within the diversity of Indian cuisine there are varied snacks forming an important part of Indian culture. Oil or Triglycerides make about 99% of the fats that we consume in our snacks. Research in the last twenty years has shown that Triglycerides are equally responsible for creating heart disease, when compared to Cholesterol. The cooking medium of almost all snacks is oil which is nothing but Triglycerides. Oils also have a very high calorie content and thus lead to obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure.
