India being a majorly vegetarian country, the diets here are rich in carbohydrates (almost 70-80 percent of their diet). Indian food companies mostly produce both vegetarian and non-vegetarian products to cater to a larger audience. But the problem arises when they are produced in the same firm which poses certain challenges in terms of managing vegetarian (green/veg) and non-vegetarian (brown/non-veg) production. This will hamper the sentiments and religious beliefs of people if the categorization hasn’t been done in a proper manner. Hence, it becomes necessary to distinguish both the products accurately and clearly. Therefore in 2011, the Indian state made it mandatory for all processed food products to be labelled to indicate whether products are vegetarian (green) or non-vegetarian (brown).
