Mango juices have been a staple in Indian households for decades. From catchy taglines to celebrity endorsements, anyone and everyone can be seen selling a container of these bottled delights to tired, heat-beaten customers. Have you ever wondered if there's any mango in these juices? Recently, a content creator on Instagram shared a shocking video from a juice processing plant. The clip reveals a yellow-coloured liquid substance being mixed with red and orange food colouring, sugar syrup and other chemicals in a churning machine. Then, the processed liquid is canned in bottles of plastic paper packets. Finally, they are packaged in large cartons and prepared for delivery to the sellers with the help of several workers. The video was shared with the caption, “Tetra pack mango juice.”
