In a world where food labels often conceal rather than convey the facts, another fact has come to light by a famous YouTuber and Food influencer Revant Himatsingka, who is also famous as Foor Pharmer. In one of the recent videos shared by the Food Pharmer, he has made the shocking claim that Amul dark chocolate has more added sugar than Amul milk Chocolate. His tweet reads, “Amul Dark chocolate has 43% added sugar (compared to 39% sugar in Amul milk chocolate). But many people consume Amul dark chocolate in excess believing it to be healthy.”“Dark chocolate contains a higher amount of Flavanols, which is beneficial for heart health and in lowering the risk of diabetes. But it is very important to make sure you are picking up the right type of dark chocolate to avoid excess sugar,” it further claims.Shocking fact: Amul dark chocolate has more added sugar than Amul milk Chocolate!Amul Dark chocolate has 43% added sugar (compared to 39% sugar in Amul milk chocolate). but many people consume Amul dark chocolate in excess believing it to be healthy.Dark chocolate contains… pic.twitter.com/te67AXkL9X— Revant Himatsingka “Food Pharmer” (@foodpharmer2) July 5, 2024In this video, Himatsingka has highlighted 3 dark chocolates that are better than Amul Dark Chocolate. He has also asked the people not just to buy anything that sounds healthy but also to check labels before buying anything to make sure that they are actually healthy. The message reads, “A message to all Indians: Dont just buy “healthy-sounding” foods, buy foods only after checking the label and ensure they are healthy.”Meanwhile, it is important to note that this is not the time when the food influencer has talked about food. Recently, he raised concerns about the ready-to-eat food options like upma, poha and dal chawal that are served at Indigo flights. He claimed that the food that is served to passenger contain higher sodium levels than Maggi noodles. Responding to this, the airlines said that the food that is served to the passengers is fresh and pre-packed food is from the reputed vendors only and they mention all the ingredients and nutritional information as per FSSAI norms.
