Food Segregation Guidelines Largely Ignored by Eateries

Food Segregation Guidelines Largely Ignored by Eateries

The Indian government has rules about keeping vegetarian and non-vegetarian food separate when it's made, cooked, and stored to prevent cross-contamination.

However, many restaurants and street food vendors don't know about these rules or don't follow them.

This means that people who don't eat meat could accidentally get meat in their food.

The rules are there to protect people, but they are not always enforced due to a lack of inspections and awareness.

Some bigger restaurants do follow strict rules, but it's not always because they have to.
