The study, conducted by Godrej Yummiez, a brand of ready-to-cook products from Godrej Tyson Foods Ltd (GTFL), aims to understand the increasing shift in the tendency of Indians to consume frozen snacks.

Uncovering the benefits of IQF

While parents and adults in general are switching to frozen food and other snacks, a guilt however prevails. When parents were asked if they felt guilty to serve their children frozen foods, 55% responded in the affirmative because of the presence of preservatives in frozen snacks. Meanwhile, 51% Indians claimed they would feel less guilty to consume preservative-free frozen snacks

Enter- Individual Quick Freezing or IQF technology. The unique technology which dates back to 1960s, involves quick freezing of individual pieces as against freezing the items in bulk. This ultra-rapid freezing technique is designed to halt the activities of the microorganisms which might cause decay in the food.

The result- the snacks don’t require any preservatives!

All Godrej Yummiez products across the board are made using the IQF technology, thereby making the foods preservatives free, and hygienic.
