Many people are acquainted with products of the types of Benger's Food, Mellin's Food, Horlick's Malted Milk, Grape nuts, Force and Malt Extract. These foods are called infant and invalid foods as they are predigested by a series of chemical and bio- chemical processes in the factory and put up in a form in which they are easily digested and assimilated by infants and people with weak digestive powers. The basis of all these foods is Mall, a product usually prepared from Barley, which is not cultivated in South India with the exception of a few acres on the Nilgiris.
