Read more about it here.

I am happy that Pepsico realizes that India is waking up to “Good Health” and so, they are launching snacks with a “Snack Smart” concept (Snacks with 40% Less Saturated Fats and Zero Trans Fats).

I am happy that such companies are coming out with these alternatives for people. Hope to see a healthy India soon.
