The Maharashtra government has banned the use of 'analog paneer' in hotels and restaurants for one year due to health concerns. Unlike real paneer made from milk, analog paneer is produced using milk powder, vegetable oils, and chemicals. Recent tests revealed 35% vegetable fat in samples. Experts warn that harmful chemicals like formalin in synthetic paneer can damage kidneys and liver, and potentially lead to cancer. Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe issued the order, mandating clear labeling of milk fat content as per FSSAI standards. https://kannada.news18.com/news/lifestyle/what-is-analogue-paneer-that-is-banned-in-maharashtra-why-doctors-concerned-about-health-msy-2466796.html
