The Gourmands and Geeks; the 2Gs, Sadaf and Archit are here to sweeten your lives with a discussion on laddoos in this week’s episode. They discuss the origins of laddoo as a health food, some of its most iconic versions and ponder over questions such as: should laddoo be India’s national sweet? Why do we now make laddoos mostly with refined sugar? Is laddoo an aphrodisiac? Why would someone name their shop ‘Thaggu Ke Laddoo'?
