But a few people will arise questions and they need answers:
.
Q.1) Why mamra is so expensive compared to american badam?
Ans - : American badam is 85% of entire world production. Mamra, which is grown in Iran, and Afghanistan is only about 3-4% of world supply. Naturally, less supply less production keeps the price high.
.
Q.2) Why american badam has 85% of market share?
Ans - : One word : YIELD or Productivity. With advancement in science and technology, American badam gets 4 to 5 times yield per acre and therefore cost and price is lower.
.
Q.3) Why do people still prefer mamra?
Ans - : In olden days only Kings and rich people use to eat mamra. So has become a kind of Status symbol and brand image. Certain persons get pleasure and satisfaction in using the most expensive brand, irrespective of the fact whether it is useful or not.
.
So honestly speaking, Avoid mamra badam, there is no need to pay 3 times more money on Mamra. American is much better.. scientifically tested & proved.
It is clear that you have never had mama soaked overnight in water for more than a month. You cannot eat any other because of how good it tastes. Not to mention that eaten raw, the oil is good for teeth (as recommended by a gold medalist dentist from MAMC)
ReplyDeleteMamta is organically cultivated and servedv in its original raw form. American uses fertiliser and then artifically processed. Nutrition value of mamta is many fold higher than american. Choice and affordability is yours.

DeleteI have used both asw as gurbandi, the middle priced.Mamra certainly have better taste and oil content is higher. The Ayurveda and yunani medicine systems use almond oil a lot to heal age related problems, that's why it's preferred.But you know, these claims are never clinically tested.
Mamra and Gurbandi almonds are better in nutritive value and oil content. So, they are preferable over American(California) almonds.

ReplyDeleteArticle on farms on kashmir clearly mentions that American almonds badam is pasteurised which is not organically grown. So the price is less because of high production which is accelerated using pesticides and other artificial method. So I believe your conclusion is absolutely wrong. The price you pay for mamra is due to less production, high production cost and obviously more natural and health beneficial.
ReplyDeleteCalifornia almond is grown on very vast areas. The bees are brought for pollination. The honey produced is not fit for consumption, as it is bitter in taste. I have never found a California almond as bitter whereas gurbandi has good percentage of bitter almonds. I have never bought or tasted Mamra.
