Good to see politicians enjoying simple joys like sweets. It humanizes them. But honestly, I wish our leaders would share more about their work and policies with the same enthusiasm as they share food pics. Just a thought.

Bengali sweets are the best in the world, no debate! The Nolen Gur sandesh in winter is pure heaven. This tray looks amazing, but nothing beats having them fresh from a shop in Kolkata.

As someone who married into a Bengali family, I've developed a deep love for these sweets. The artistry that goes into making Sandesh is incredible. It's more than dessert; it's an edible craft.

Tulsi Virani enjoying mithai! This brings back so many memories of watching her on TV with my family. She's still so graceful. And now I'm craving some rasgulla. 🤤

Respectfully, while I enjoy seeing this, I hope the sweets were from a local, traditional halwai and not some five-star hotel. Supporting our local sweet makers is very important for preserving these arts.
