As a sovereign, independent, aatmanirbhar country India has to set its own food standards, and not rely on those from abroad. The Indian consumer also has to be better informed so that they can make wise choices about what they eat.
Similarly, I heard that what qualifies as "chocolate" is much more lax in the US compared to the European Union. And so on.Dairy Fat vs. Vegetable Fat: In India, many Kwality Wall's products are legally classified as "frozen desserts" because they use vegetable oils/fats (like palm oil) instead of solely milk fat. This is a major cost-saving measure as vegetable oil is cheaper than dairy fat. In the US, products sold as "ice cream" must meet specific regulatory standards that mandate a certain percentage of milk fat. Unilever's US brands generally use real dairy ingredients to meet this standard.
