Snack It Up

Related image

A wide variety of branded snacks in all sizes and prices are available across the country. You’re never too far from a variety of crisps, waffles, biscuits, cookies, cheese snacks, crackers and a lot more. You can spot them on store shelves and display baskets 
everywhere.

Local branded snacks, available at stores all over, are equally good and a little cheaper. Popular among these are namkeens or savouries (if you drink, this can make an excellent accompaniment) available in a lot of varieties and make a very convenient snack while sightseeing.

Remember to buy some food grade stackable plastic containers, to store snacks and other short eats in your hotel room.

Another good source for light snacks is bakeries. They stock a lot of locally packed snacks, some made by them and reasonably priced. You’ll find many as you walk along and it’s very easy to tell the good ones.

Please note that the climate in India vastly differs from that in your own country, and you can tire easily, especially with the walking you’ll be doing while sightseeing. It is recommended that you never substitute snacks for regular meals. Drink plenty of liquids.
