Are Ready-to-Eat Indian food products unhealthy?

First of all, I must clarify that ready-to-eat Indian food products are hygienically processed and packed taking into consideration all international standards. So, definitely they are not unhealthy though they might be compromised slightly on nutrition. Frozen rotis are not good so its better to avoid them. Freshly baked rotis are advisable if you are able to get your hands on them. Rice is ok only if you are draining the excessive starchy water after cooking. In case of Ready-to-Eat products they are made in the same way the food is made at home, the only thing that is different in the product which enhances the product life is the packaging technology which is retort packaging. Retort packaging is a new kind of packaging which prevents the bacteria to grow overtime inside the food product. Also to top it up few companies fill in nitrogen in order to be absolutely safe as nitrogen acts as a safe preservative which hinders bacterial growth in food.

Eating out at Subway on regular basis is also not healthy. If you have access to a kitchen - nothing better than cooking for yourself. For one, the satisfaction that one gets out of appreciating one's efforts is incomparable. I have an experience in Toronto, Canada where a tiffin service provider Food Monks delivers home-style food, if you are residing or planning to travel to Toronto area you should try them.

Your Opinion vs Other's Opinion

A teacher held a book in her hand and asked the 12th grade students what the colour of the book was. They replied in chorus,"black!".
The teacher exclaimed it was red. The students said that she was wrong and that the book was black. At this, the teacher turned the book the other way and it was red!
She then said,"put forth your opinion but don't say the other person is wrong before you've seen things from their perspective".

Loss of Memory

Two elderly couples were enjoying friendly conversation when one of the men asked the other, "Fred, how was the memory clinic you went to last month?"

 "Outstanding," Fred replied. "They taught us all the latest psychological techniques - visualization, association - it has made a big difference for me."

"That's great! What was the name of that clinic?"

Fred went blank. He thought and thought but couldn't remember. Then a smile broke across his face and he asked, "What do you call that flower with the long stem and thorns?"

"You mean a rose?" 

"Yes, that's it!" Then he turned to his wife and asked, "Rose, what was the name of that clinic?

Joe's Dilemma

The doctor said, "Joe, the good news is I can cure your headaches. The bad news is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition, which causes your testicles to press on your spine, and the pressure creates one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles."

Joe was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for. He couldn't concentrate long enough to answer, but decided he had no choice but to go under the knife.

When he left the hospital he was without a headache for the first time in 20 years, but he felt like he was missing an important part of himself. As he walked down the street, he realized that he felt like a different person. He could make a new beginning and live a new life. He saw a men's clothing store & thought, "That's what I need - a new suit."

He entered the shop and told the salesman, "I'd like a new suit." The elderly tailor eyed him briefly and said, "Let's see ... size 44 long." Joe laughed, "That's right, how did you know?" "Been in the business 60 years!" Joe tried on the suit. It fit perfectly.

As Joe admired himself in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about a new shirt?" Joe thought for a moment and then said, "Sure." The salesman eyed Joe and said, "Let's see, 34 sleeve & 16-1/2 neck." Again, Joe was surprised, "That's right, how did you know?" "Been in the business 60 years!"

Joe tried on the shirt, and it fit perfectly. As Joe adjusted the collar in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about new shoes?" Joe was on a roll and said, "Sure." The salesman eyed Joe's feet and said, "Let's see ... 9-1/2 E." Joe was astonished, "That's right, how did you know?" "Been in the business 60 years!"

Joe tried on the shoes and they fit perfectly. Joe walked comfortably around the shop and the salesman asked, "How about some new underwear?" Joe thought for a second and said, "Sure." The salesman stepped back, eyed Joe's waist and said, "Let's see... size 36."

Joe laughed. "Ah ha! I got you! I've worn size 34 since I was 18 years old." The salesman shook his head, "You can't wear a size 34. A size 34 underwear would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and give you one hell of a headache."
