Are biscuits the new breakfast? When there's chocolate, why have a chapatti? Food for thought that comes in the wake of the recently released Nielsen Global Survey of Snacking which states that 67% of Indians are consuming snacks instead of breakfast and 56% are replacing dinner and lunch each with snacks.
饼干成为了新的早餐？既然有了巧克力，为什么还要薄煎饼？全球知名市场调研公司尼尔森最近发布的调查报告显示，67%的印度人用零食代替早餐，56%人索性午饭、晚饭统统改吃零食。
The survey, conducted earlier this year across more than 30,000 online consumers in 60 countries, reveals that 43% urban Indians consider snacks a source of nutrition. When asked to choose their preferred snack over the last 30 days, 16% of Indians surveyed marked chocolate followed by breads and sandwiches (15%), vegetables (15%) and fresh fruit (14%). No Indian snacks like samosa, upma or poha were included in the 47 snacks listed on the survey.
今年早些时候，尼尔森在网上对60个国家的3万名消费者进行了调查，结果显示43%的印度城里人把零食视为营养的一个来源。在被问及“过去30天内都吃过哪些喜欢的零食”时，16%受访者选择巧克力，15%选面包和三明治，15%选蔬菜，14%选水果。没有一种印度零食出现在调查中的47种零食名单中。
"In India, sales in the snacking category have grown more than six times in the last decade. Increasing disposable incomes, a need for convenience owing to fast-paced lifestyles and a cultural tradition of snacking between meals are key factors that propel the snacking trend in India," says Dolly Jha, executive director, Nielsen India. After nutrition, getting an energy boost (76%), enjoyment (75%) and satisfying hunger between meals (75%) were other factors guiding Indian choice of snacks.
尼尔森驻印度办事处负责人多利·贾哈分析称，印度零食类产品销量过去10年增长6倍，民众可支配收入增加、生活节奏加快以及吃零食的文化传统是推动这一增长的关键因素。除了补充营养之外，获得能量补充（76%）、享受（75%）以及正餐之间用于充饥（75%）也是指导印度人选择零食的其他因素。

Staying fit is important but sometimes sharing joy of having snacks with family or friends are more important than your personal fitness.保持健康固然重要，但是有时候与家人和朋友一起享受吃零食的乐趣，比个人健康更重要。
