About Parle-g biscuits
Parle-G Biscuits, originating from India, are a beloved snack with global appeal. Made from refined wheat flour, sugar, vegetable oils, and milk solids, these biscuits have a mildly sweet taste and a crunchy texture. Often enjoyed with tea or coffee, they are a staple in Indian households and are recognized for their affordability and nostalgic value. Parle-G provides quick energy, thanks to its high carbohydrate content, making it a convenient choice for busy individuals or as a light snack. However, due to its refined flour base, sugar, and saturated fats from vegetable oils, it lacks significant dietary fiber and high-quality nutrients. While it’s not the healthiest option for regular consumption, it serves as an occasional treat or an accessible calorie source in economically constrained settings.
