INDIA NEWS | Sat, 7 Nov 2026, 12:48AM IST Now, over 70 years since they were invented, single-serve tomato ketchup sachets are slated to become contraband from 2030 under the European Union's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation. Maybe in the future, secret stashes of them will find their way on to the dark web (or its future equivalent) to be picked up for a fortune by collectors and hoarded away in airtight vaults. Even further in the future, they will be unearthed as 20th century material culture.A newly rekindled romance with Europe has seen the current Labour-led British government there become willin', Barkis-like, to adopt rules that routinely used to make their Conservative predecessors see red. And that has now led to talk of an outrageous assault on a familiar and beloved table accessory in countless British pubs and eateries: sachets of not only single-serve ketchup but also mayonnaise, mustard and vinegar, usually reposing in a convenient bowl.Also Read: Why best leaders don't try to save the worldNo doubt back in 1955, Messrs Harold Ross and Yale Kaplan did yeoman service to the food trade by apportioning the right amount of condiment and ensconcing it in a sachet that required less energy to open and dispense than bottles or jars. Bigger receptacles were messy and wasteful it was believed, and sachets offered a clean and ordered - read, pre-measured - alternative that required no thought. Clearly, they had read the average convenience junkie's mind perfectly.Of course, the primary beneficiary of these prepackaged condiments were eateries themselves. Which business would not want to obviate the chance of wasteful or butter-fingered customers dispensing more from bottles than necessary? The extra packing cost per unit of ketchup is recouped by lower wastage even though the sachets are offered "free". Not many such sachets go waste anyway, even if a few brazen types grab handfuls of each to go with their fish and chips.Few humans can resist the allure of those sauce packets in our current stage of evolution. This writer included. When any of those come in my standard airline meal, I sagely tuck them into my bag rather than hand them back unopened along with my empty tray to the cabin crew. Ditto for wet tissue sachets, sugar packets, miniature jam and butter tubs and small water bottles. Is that wastage or thriftiness on my part? All my travel bags have a few tucked away from last time...Single-use sachets have become all pervasive in India, from pickles to shampoo, biscuits to spices, ointments to detergents. Speaking anecdotally, though, pan masala and gutka sachets appear to be the most pernicious. Those shiny, empty sachets find their way into every nook and cranny; most disturbingly they turn up even in the garden soil when I am repotting a plant. Millions of thoughtlessly chucked sachets now clog up our water bodies, forests and farmlands.Our planet would be better off without all sachets, but this EU regulation exempts takeaway food. So those ubiquitous oregano and chilli flakes sachets that arrive with pizza and burger orders will still be available for stockpiling by human packrats after 2030. Hospitals and nursing homes will also be exempt, on grounds of hygiene and safety. EU being EU, alternatives are also helpfully listed: refillable sauce dispensers, small bowls for jam and jugs for creamers.The EU regulation is aimed only at establishments that provide these to those who dine in. But there is a case to draw a line under this brilliant 20th century invention - for the sake of future centuries. Pre-portioned packaging really underestimates humans: we can go to the moon and deep space but cannot use a squeezy jar or a bottle at a fast-food restaurant or at home for ketchup or mustard? Single-use plastics are the most dispensable of inventions, pun intended.

INDIA NEWS | Sat, 7 Nov 2026, 12:34AM IST Federal Reserve officials are weighing the inflationary risks from strong economic activity and the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence infrastructure, even as they signal the need for more data before determining the next steps on interest rates, Bloomberg reported.For live updates on US Markets, click here New York Fed President John Williams said inflation remained too high, although other indicators were not yet pointing to broader concerns. Speaking at an event hosted by the European Central Bank in Frankfurt on Friday, he backed the Fed's position that policymakers should gather more information before deciding the appropriate course for monetary policy."Inflation is absolutely too high," Williams said, while noting that wage growth remained consistent with the central bank's 2% inflation target and inflation expectations were well anchored.Fed weighs inflation against economic resilienceWilliams said monetary policy had an important role in preventing temporary price shocks from spreading into broader or more persistent inflation.Also Read: Federal Reserve rate hike bets strengthen as US jobs growth beats estimates"Our FOMC statement last meeting, I think, captures correctly that this is an appropriate time to accumulate more information to help us determine what the appropriate stance of policy is to make make sure we achieve a timely return to our 2% target," he said, according to the Bloomberg report.The Fed held interest rates steady at its previous meeting after raising its benchmark rate by 25 basis points in September to a range of 3.75%-4%. Policymakers have since emphasised the need for additional information while keeping the possibility of further rate increases open, Bloomberg reported.The central bank's preferred inflation gauge, the personal consumption expenditures price index, rose 3.6% in September from a year earlier. Underlying inflation measures that exclude food and energy also increased. Meanwhile, the US economy expanded at its fastest pace in a year in the quarter ended September.AI infrastructure raises fresh inflation concernsSeparately, St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem warned that the rapid build-out of AI infrastructure could add to near-term inflationary pressures, Bloomberg reported."When I look at inflation, excess inflation today, its coming both from negative supply shocks related to the Middle East and demand forces coming related to the AI build," Musalem said.While acknowledging AI's potential to improve productivity over time, he cautioned against shaping current monetary policy around benefits that may take years to materialise."We need to make monetary policy for the economy of the day," he said. "We cannot make monetary policy for the economy as it may be five years from now."(Disclaimer: This article is based on inputs from agencies. These do not represent the views of The Economic Times)

INDIA NEWS | Fri, 6 Nov 2026, 11:39PM IST The Federal Reserve's case for another interest rate hike in December has gained momentum after stronger than expected US employment data reinforced signs of economic resilience, shifting attention back to persistent inflation from concerns over a potential AI driven slowdown, Reuters reported.US employers added 165,000 jobs in October, more than double the 65,000 expected by economists, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The unemployment rate also edged down to 4.1%, suggesting the labour market remains firm despite concerns over the economic outlook.For live updates on US Markets, click here Following the report, markets priced in an 85% probability of a quarter point rate increase at the Fed's December 8-9 meeting, up from around 75% before the data release. Traders also brought forward expectations of another rate increase to April from June, Reuters reported.Strong jobs data reinforce Fed's hawkish outlookThe employment figures strengthen the argument for further monetary tightening as the Fed continues to battle inflation, which has remained above its 2% target for more than five years.Also Read: Nasdaq rebounds as chip stocks recover from steep losses, rate fears persist"This is a very strong labor market report on the heels of solid GDP and consumer spending data last week, reinforcing the economys positive momentum," Fitch Ratings analyst Olu Sonola wrote after the release.While acknowledging the risks posed by recent AI related concerns, Sonola said the economy remained on firm footing and that labour market resilience was pushing the policy debate towards a December rate hike, Reuters reported.Raymond James analysts also expect the central bank to raise rates next month."For the Federal Reserve, this should allow them to concentrate on the inflation side of their mandate," the analysts wrote. "We expect the Fed to increase the federal funds rate by 25 basis points in December."AI concerns had clouded rate outlookExpectations of another rate increase had weakened after Democrats' midterm election gains raised concerns about tighter regulation of AI and data centre construction.The prospect of slower AI investment had fuelled worries about weaker economic growth and easing inflationary pressures, reducing the urgency for further monetary tightening.However, Friday's employment report has renewed expectations that the Fed will prioritise inflation control as it assesses the strength of the US economy.(Disclaimer: This article is based on inputs from agencies.
