New Delhi, August 7: Although biryani is the most popular dish in the country, Indians are far from cutting down on the consumption of fast foods which are often blamed for rise in obesity, suggests new data from online food delivery platform, Swiggy. Subway, Domino's Pizza, McDonald's and Burger King clocked the highest number of orders in the past five years, said Swiggy, which has entered over 290 cities since its launch in 2014.
