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.
