PUNE : Union minister Nitin Gadkari has said he would request airlines to provide honey sachets as sweetener while serving tea/coffee to passengers in flights.
He was speaking at a Central Bee Research and Training Institute (CBRTI) here on Monday.
“Normally, one spoon of honey is equal to three spoons of sugar. Currently, refined sugar sachets are provided on board to passengers, so we are trying if we can provide honey sachets or honey cubes in flights and hotels,” said the minister for micro, small and medium enterprises.
There will be a choice of sugar or honey, he added.
