Rs 7 egg & Rs 22 egg are nutritionally almost identical.
Most of what you're paying extra for is... marketing.
Egg industry has turned a simple food into a quiz. Brown /white? Orange/yellow yolk? Omega-3?
@anushkantala & I dug into what actually matters.

What a fantastic piece of reporting by @PySamarth on the controversy around eggs — the health, the science, the business and the production — the piece covers it all!

What a fabulously well-researched & narrated article on eggs in India & egg health. What the Eggoz Controversy Actually Tells Us About Eggs in India. Everyone should read this. Journalists, people who eat eggs, and people like me who'd rather not eat eggs. tbthealth.substack.com/p/what-the-egg…

Tasted my first @wholetruthfood chocolate bar, and have to tell my friend @PySamarth that it was amazing!

One lab test said Eggoz eggs had a banned antibiotic. Another said they're perfectly safe.
Which led us to a deep-dive inside India's egg supply chain: antibiotics, traceability, and why India is so far behind Europe

I wrote down what I want in 2026. On work, writing, relationships, how I spend my time and more. Sharing it here. (Link in next tweet.)

Replugging this piece again as it becomes unbearable to breathe in the national capital. Do read the full story. @PySamarth

Delhi's pollution numbers just don't add up. It's a mess. For over a decade, the city has tried to measure what's polluting its air. What's happening now is weird: a study gets commissioned, results are out, and then its cancelled. Without explanation. The latest being a ₹12 crore study, as AAP and BJP fight over "science". Despite this, every winter, headlines and "experts" confidently declare "40% from stubble burning!" and "20% from vehicles!" with a false veneer of mathematical precision—which just doesn't exist. @anushkantala and I went down this rabbit hole and found how measuring air pollution has became a political game. I wrote about this in @theplankmag's new section where we share important findings and unresolved questions that don’t fit our main stories but deserve attention. Please read. Link in next tweet. It might change how you read every future story about air pollution.

I spent 7 months losing 20kg the hard way. So when Ozempic made news, I dismissed it as another weight-loss scam.
Then I read the actual research. What I found changed my mind about the science. But I still wouldn't recommend it to my uncle.
Why? Read my latest. Link below.

Protein ke peeche kya hai? AKA Why are protein powders a black box? Let's change that. Let's take the protein conversation out of gyms and into our living rooms. And let's have a bit of a laugh as we do it ;)

This is my one annual indulgence: a sprawling, messy birthday blog from my 32nd yesterday.
No neat takeaways, just what’s on my mind right now. On art, solitude, love, and what it actually means to call yourself a writer. And yes, the Annie Hall lobster scene. :)

@PySamarth Great piece Samarth. Very relatable. I have found myself in the same position many times.

NEW ESSAY: Management is hard. Becoming a first-time manager is harder.
No one warned me about the identity crisis from maker to manager—and the grief of losing your maker identity. Or the emotional labour of holding tensions between organisational needs and human realities. Or how exhausting it is to wield authority you never wanted. Or the Michael Corleone energy you discover in yourself.
Like everything that hits me hard, I process through writing. So here goes: what it really felt like to be a first-time manager—from someone just trying to suck less at it.
