This is actually a kind of traditional culture in India. In the early days, cow dung was used for heating and eating, and it also had a beautiful meaning of peace, serenity and family reunion. It gradually penetrated into people's lives and became a necessity. Because India worships cows very much and treats them as gods, this cow dung cake will even be used for some ritual sacrifices. This kind of cow dung cake is made of cow dung mixed with hay, and then dried.
It is mainly used as fuel. Because there are no forests like ours in these parts of India, there are few trees that can be used as firewood. Cow dung has naturally become the first choice, which is more common and can be obtained everywhere, and the combustion efficiency is still very high. Of course, with the development of India, these traditional fuels are slowly disappearing. Before that, there was an upsurge of importing this cow dung cake in China.
Some even give away these cow dung cakes in exquisite packages. It is said that such a cow dung cake weighs about 211 grams, and each bag costs about 11~41 yuan RMB, which is mainly due to the religious worship of Indian people, which leads to the hot cow dung cakes. However, it also reflects from the side that their living conditions are really very difficult, and even the use of fuel is relatively backward, although it varies from place to place.
Although these cow dung cakes are not so common now, people will still buy them as a carrier of remembrance. The smell of cow dung has been deeply imprinted in their minds to a great extent, and they bought it home just to look back on their past memories. In fact, few people in India eat this kind of cow dung cake. After all, it has no nutritional value, and its taste and taste are not good.
