BiryaniIndex

The BiryaniIndex is an informal economic indicator that tracks the average price of biryani, a popular rice dish, across different cities. By comparing biryani prices, it provides insight into regional living costs and inflation trends. Since biryani's price is influenced by factors like ingredient costs, demand, and local economic conditions, the index can reflect broader economic health and consumer affordability in various areas. Essentially, it’s a playful yet practical way to gauge economic changes using a common, locally loved food.
