Conclusion
Studies have shown over and again that samosas can be very fattening, as much as any other fatty snack. Using Refined flour and the unhygienic conditions under which samosas are made in India are ample reasons for you to stop eating them!
So, we suggest you skip the samosa instead snack on something that is satisfying and healthy like nuts. Healthy snacks will not only help to keep the cholesterol in check but also help cleanse your system of harmful toxins.
