Which is a correct example of food fraud in an Indian food enterprise?

Correct answer: Selling cheap fat mixed under the name of ghee

The direct answer is B: selling cheap fat while claiming or presenting it as ghee is food fraud. Food fraud involves deliberate deception about a food’s identity, quality, quantity, ingredients, or origin for financial gain. Here the product is misrepresented, so the customer pays for something different from what is promised. Option B is correct. Option A, clearly listing ingredients, supports honesty and informed choice. Option C, giving allergen information, protects customers and is responsible practice. Option D, keeping a hygiene checklist, helps control sanitation and is not deception. The important distinction is that a mistake may be accidental, but deliberately substituting a cheaper ingredient and using the name of a better product is dishonest. Memory cue: false identity or false claim for gain is food fraud.
