At the same moment, a couple on a scooter was crossing the road. From our perspective, it looked like... 9 0 replies
Nandini milk quality Recently noticing nandini milk quality has went down. Fat percentage does not seem to justify the quality. Before same milk used to get more cream after refrigeration of boiled milk, but now a days very less cream. Used to make decent amount of ghee before with subham gold.
