Union budget 2010-11 gives FMCG companies some food for thought
Broadened income tax slabs provide and opportunity for the FMCG companies to cater to a set of richer consumers but rising input costs, fuel prices and excise hike may hinder the growth in demand as a price rise for most of the FMCG products seems imminent. Also the tax benefit seems to be the most beneficial for the upper middle income strata of the society and hence large pool of urban middle and lower middle income families will find coping up with spiralling inflation more difficult Sat, 27 Feb 2010 19:13:11 +0600

1. A dried plum. Prunes can be traced back to Roman times and have long been a popular northern European winter fruit because they could be stored without problem. Although any plum can be made into a prune, those with the greatest flavor, sweetness and firmness are best suited for that use. Commercial dehydration has replaced sun-drying as the primary method of producing prunes. Though the best prunes are found in the fall, they're available year-round and come in various sizes (small, medium, large, extra large and jumbo). When purchasing prunes look for those that are slightly soft and somewhat flexible. They should have a bluish-black skin and be blemish-free. Store them airtight in a cool, dry place (or refrigerate) for up to six months. Prunes can be eaten out of hand or used in a variety of sweet and savory dishes. Prune purée, which can be found in jars in most supermarkets, is broadly touted (primarily by the California Prune Board) as a fat substitute. In baked goods, substituting prune purée for butter or other fat can reduce cholesterol to zero and calories by up to 30 percent. The purée contributes moisture, a slightly chewy texture and a pruny flavor that can range from mild to moderately aggressive, depending on the other flavors in the food. 2. A variety of Italian plum. 3. In French, the word prune means "plum," while pruneau means "prune."
[ma-loh-LAK-tihk] A biochemical reaction, sometimes called secondary fermentation, where bacteria converts malic acid into lactic acid and carbon dioxide-no alcohol is produced. Because lactic acid is milder than malic acid, wines that undergo this process become softer and smoother. In addition, malolactic fermentation produces diacetyl (or biacetyl), which resembles the smell of heated butter and adds complexity to wine. Malolactic fermentation is a positive event in some cases, and most high-quality red wines and some white wines (including white Burgundies and California Chardonnays) undergo it. On the downside, the fruitiness of wines undergoing this process is diminished, and sometimes off-odors can result. Many white wines need malic acid's higher acidity to retain their crisp, lively character, and some are too delicate to withstand the potential off-odors that might be introduced. Many winemakers now encourage malolactic fermentation for some batches of their Chardonnay while inhibiting the process in others, thereby giving the final blend improved complexity while retaining fruitiness and higher acidity.
