Do you ever think what your calorie intake is like when you binge eat at a favourite restaurant? Well, there will soon be a way to find out.
Menus at restaurants across India will soon start mentioning the nutritive value of the food you're being served.&nbsp;This means that you will be able to count the calories you consume whenever&nbsp;you eat out.
The move is a part of the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India's 'Eat Right Initiative', and will apply to restaurateurs who have more than 10 food chains. So far, its voluntary, but authorities may come up with an order to make it mandatory.
Alongside each dish on the menu, the amount&nbsp;of vitamins, calories, fats and carbohydrates in it will also be mentioned. Not just that, the menu will also mention potential allergens present in the food, including gluten, groundnuts and soyabean.
With the govt making healthy eating habits a priority, you have no reason to complain.

If you thought fusion food trends would stop at Chyawanprash-flavoured ice cream, you're gravely mistaken!

The product's USP&nbsp;is obviously haldi, which is known to have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Wait, there's more.&nbsp;Amul&nbsp;also plans to launch another variant called 'the&nbsp;immuno chakra ice cream' soon which will have ginger and tulsi&nbsp;along with haldi.
Well, all we can say is we warned you.&nbsp;
