Zomato Inspects Gurgaon Restaurants Following Ban on Analogue Paneer
Zomato has been conducting physical inspections at partner restaurants across Gurgaon to ensure compliance with its ban on analogue paneer, a synthetic dairy substitute. The company is tightening vendor audits and scrutinizing supply chains following concerns over analogue paneer, which is banned by the Haryana government for one year. Restaurant managers confirmed inspections and stated they use natural paneer. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has also taken steps against analogue dairy products due to health and mislabeling concerns.
