THE AUTHORS DRAW A CLEAR CONNECTION BETWEEN HINDU VEGETARIANISM AND THE CONCEPT OF HOT AND COLD FOODS. DESCRIBE HOW THIS COMPARI
bulgar [2K]

While it might have seemed like a good idea for <u>Sultan Singh to start an egg business, the population of India is largely vegetarian</u> due to religious reasons  and does not eat eggs so the business failed.

Explanation:

Hot and Cold foods are described locally and known intuitively by many people who follow the Hindu religion. Eating habits are based on the demarcation.

<u>Cold foods are not eaten after sunset as they induce cold and fever it is believed. These include curd, fruits and even rice which is served hot.</u>

<u>Any other type of staple food is believed to be hot and can be eaten throughout the day.</u>

The Singh business did not run because of the strict eating habits of Hindu of which the above is a great example. These habits include not eating non vegetarian food on certain days for even the people who  do. Thus a non vegetarian business finds it hard to function in a Hindu majority region.
