Consuming fruit for health.
خلفية ثقافية
When a guest arrives, offering 'Phal-frut' is considered more sophisticated than just offering tea. It shows the host cares about the guest's health. In Gurdwaras or during Hindu Pujas in Punjab, fruit is often distributed as 'Parshad'. In this context, 'Phal khāṇā' is seen as receiving a blessing. During festivals like Lohri or Baisakhi, specific seasonal fruits (like sugarcane or berries) are eaten, reinforcing the 'Phal khāṇā' habit. Many Punjabis follow Ayurvedic principles which suggest 'Phal khāṇā' on an empty stomach for maximum 'shakti' (energy).
