Snacks form an important eating habit in our everyday life. Whether they form a healthy habit or not depends on the types of snack eaten. In today’s world, the market is filled with snacks of all varieties ranging from low processing, healthy snacks to full on processed snacks that aren’t identical to the original food material it was made from. No matter what type of snacks it is, we can agree that there is no way you’re going to say no to it. With the festive season around the corner, let’s look at some of the snacks that are now dominating the Indian market, and which ones you could actually gift your loved ones.

Aloo Bhujia: This snack is another one made from potato, but it is made by a mixture of boiled potato and chickpea flour. This one is a favourite tea time snack, and is also served during the festive season.

Bhujia sev: It is similar to aloo bhujia, but this snack is actually made from moth beans in the place of potato.

Hing Chana: Hing Chana as the name suggests is a snack made from Chana that has been flavoured with hing or asafoetida. This delicious snack is produced by some of the biggest snack companies in India, producing shelf stable products for the retail markets.

Crispy Peanuts: Crispy peanuts were initially a snack made at home where peanuts were coated with a layer of batter by mixing refined wheat flour, salt, turmeric and chili powder, and then deep fried. These addictive snacks didn’t have their quality in tact for long when they were made at home. Soon the snack industry took this as an opportunity and made modifications to the home made snack, bringing about a product that stays fresh and crispy for a very long time.

Thattai: This rice based snack is also called as Nipattu, Chekkalu, Thattai vadai or Thattai murukku based on the region. This famous south indian snack is a must for all festive seasons. It can be eaten alone as such, or added to other dishes like bhel poori to give it an extra crunch.

Soya sticks: This tasty snack is long and resembles an uncoiled murukku. It’s delicious taste makes you want to finish the packet in one go, and if you’re worried about eating healthy, you don’t have to. Baked soya sticks retain their protein content, and are especially good for vegetarians to gain some protein in their diet.

Samosas: No Indian festival is complete without a deep fried samosa. Sure, this is a guilty pleasure, but the flavour and richness of a good samosa can make you want to let go of your diet for once. Though it can be entirely made at home, or bought out from a snack shop, retail stores now offer another option where you can buy frozen samosas and fry them to eat them fresh and hot.
