The Bee Guy

@the_beeguy

When talking to people about #bumblebees (which we do a lot!😊) they tend to mistakenly associate them with two things; honey and stings. We’ve covered the honey fallacy before so here’s a thread on stings to set the record straight Please #retweet for the bumbles.
Thanks.

#Bumblebees have the capability to sting for sure but being the docile gentle creatures they are they don’t like to use this capability - it’s their nuclear option! The ability to sting is a defence mechanism to defend their nest and themselves if they are being…

…persistently aggravated.
In fact #bumblebees have an early warning system which they deploy to try to avoid stinging you if at at all possible. We call this ‘the back off buddy’ system.
If you encounter/approach a bumblebee on a flower or perhaps on the ground or on your…

The Better India

@thebetterindia

I was an ardent candy customer. In 2021, I realized that India does not have a clean candy brand and the ones we have contained tonnes of sugar.

So I decided to pursue my interest in the FMCG industry,” says Aashnee Gajaria, who, along with her friend Sandhya Seshadari has launched #Niblerzz. This brand makes vegan, sugar-free, guilt-free gummies.

The duo's shared love for confectionery and realizing how badly the Indian market needs a clean candy brand prompted them to start it.

The #food scene in #Mumbai is actually very boring. #Pune is very vibrant in comparison with several choices on offer. One is actually spoilt for choice…
Thread
#FoodTwitter

when it comes to #Marathi food l, there is Surves Pure non-veg at F C road, the various restaurants like Nagpur hotel and Shambhavi in Sadashiv Peth, mutton bhakri joints at Khed Shivapur, Milan and Aware Khanaval at Kumthekar Road,

Kothrud and Paud road have restaurants serving niche cuisine from parts of #Maharashtra like North Maharashtra. I could go on and on… perhaps because of high real estate prices and rentals, #Mumbai does not see too many of these budget, affordable places.

@dhavalkulkarni

It has been my peeve that much of #Maharashtrian cuisine is not found in #Mumbai’s restaurants. Most #Marathi places offer #Goan or #Malvani #food. Perhaps because many Marathis here hail from these coastal regions. I found Martand at Lalbag which serves Ghati food #FoodTwitter

We decided to begin with Javla papad which serves small, dry prawns with masala papad. 4.5/5

Then, we ordered Martand Special Mutton Thali. It comes with Malvani rassa, kala rassa, Alani rassa, kharida mutton, mutton in black gravy, egg masala in black gravy, solkadi, one jowar bhakri and Indrayani rice

Astrology and food- A different relation.
You must be wondering, what is the relation between astrology and food?
Well, there is a relation. Every planet rules some nor the other thing in nature including food items.

Thus, it is essential that we improve our eating habits. We should focus more on eating #sattvic food. One must not eat #tamasik food. The food which we eat is digested and utilised throughout the body. Thus, what we eat is what we think and do.

🪷One must always avoid non vegetarian food. It is ruled by Rahu. If we eat non veg, our thinking starts getting tamasik. I have observed the one who eats non vegetarian food has a strong influence of Rahu. Person is materialistic, egoistic and fake.

The mother land and food
जिस इलाक़े में आप रहते है
या जहां आपके माँ बाप दादा दादी रहते थे वहाँ क्या उगता है आप वो खाइए ना
आपका शरीर उसी के हिसाब से ढला है सैकडो सालों से हर अनाज का एक क्षेत्र होता है जहां वो आसानी से उगाया जाता है उसमे नुक़सान कम होता है बीमारिया कम लगती है ।

ऐसा ही आपके शरीर के साथ है यहाँ आप रहते है जो जलवायू है आपको ये प्रकर्ति से मिला है वही सबसे बेहतरीन है ।
आप के खान पान आप की डीएनए से रिलेटेड होता है ,यही वजह है की अगर साउथ वाला कानपुर में भी आएगा तो उसे ईडली, ढोसा ढूंढेगा और बंगाली राजस्थान में भी होगा तो उसे

चावल मछली चाहिए होती है ,अगर आप अपने मदरलैंड,और उधर उगने वाले अनाजो ,फलों सब्जियों के अनुसार खान पान रखते है तो काफी हद तक स्वस्थ रहेंगे ।
बीमारी या मजबूरी की बात अलग है
नारियल,केला साउथ इंडिया का मुख्य भोजन पानी है क्योंकि समुंदर किनारे रहने से शरीर में पानी की कमी हो जाती है
