'This Is India Not The West': Edelweiss Mutual Fund CEO Radhika Gupta Calls For Airlines To Serve Authentic Indian Breakfasts Instead Of Bland Veg Sandwiches
Taking to the platform X, Gupta wrote, "I am calling for an end to airlines and makers of boxed food who serve two pieces of bread stuffed with cheese and coleslaw (veg sandwich) in the name of breakfast."
When it comes to breakfast on flights, many travelers often find themselves greeted with the same uninspiring option: a bland veg sandwich. Recently, Radhika Gupta, the Managing Director and CEO of Edelweiss Mutual Fund, took to social media X, formerly Twitter to voice her frustration about this lackluster meal.
Taking to the platform X, Gupta wrote, "I am calling for an end to airlines and makers of boxed food who serve two pieces of bread stuffed with cheese and coleslaw (veg sandwich) in the name of breakfast."
"This is India not the West. We have amazing breakfast food from across the country - parantha, idlis, dhoklas, and countless others - that are healthy, tasty, affordable and have shelf life. Our moms make amazing takeaway parantha rolls with leftover sabzis that taste fab," she added.
She further noted in her post and wrote, "Please be creative. Spare us the sandwich. We can do better."
