Ghee Is Making a Huge Comeback in India

Clarified butter remained India’s culinary star for centuries till it was sidelined in the 1980s by vegetable oils because of its high saturated fat.

Obviously, there is quite a lot of evidence nowadays showing that the campaign against saturated fat has been a mistake.
