There's an unnecessary hue and cry after Air India decided to serve only hot vegetarian food on its flights of 61-90 minutes duration. Firstly, even earlier the practice was continuing in Air India. Only thing was to ensure that instead of ordinary snacks served without ensuring to be hot, care may be taken to serve hot vegetarian food.
It is because in such short-duration flights time was insufficient for differentiating between vegetarian and non-vegetarian food. It is significant that while non-vegetarian people can consume vegetarian food, but vegetarian people cannot consume non-vegetarian food.
Also there is a sizable population, which even do not prefer vegetarian food with onion and garlic. Even many people not allergic to onion and garlic, do not consume onion and garlic during Navratras-days twice in a year. For such category, Air India has to arrange a third type of food, vegetarian without onion and garlic, popularly known as 'Jain' food.
