Maggi is back and it's a bigger relief for Maggi lovers than it is for Nestle. Bombay High Court on Thursday quashed the FSSAI order banning Maggi, setting aside the 5 June order by the FSSAI.

Phew. Maggi is outs of the woods and it's a bigger relief for the '2-minute' noddle lovers than it is for Nestle. Bombay High Court on Thursday quashed the FSSAI order banning Maggi, setting aside the 5 June order by the FSSAI.

But just because the ban has been lifted, it doesn't mean that the noodles will be available in the market immediately.

The High Court has directed FSSAI to conduct fresh tests on five Maggi samples at three accredited labs and if the people's favourite instant noodle gets a clean chit, it will be back on shelves and consequently on your plates. The court said that tests must be conducted within six weeks and if no excess lead or MSG is found in the samples, Nestle can resume manufacturing.

The average Indian has been craving for Maggi since it was banned. The Maggi saga has been stretched out beyond its limit, both on India media and on Indian minds. Since the ban, Nestle stocks have plummeted, Maggi has gone off shelves, and people have lost their ever-present and friendly neighbourhood snack. Quality tests on maggi samples too have given out mixed signals. Recently USFDA gave Maggi a go-ahead for US markets. On 5 August FSSAI approved labs in Goa and mysore had found maggi safe for consumption, but FSSAI dismissed those reports.

Sure, if Maggi is found safe, it will make a comeback to store-shelves. But the question remains whether the Indian consumer will buy Maggi? Will their faith be restored in the product? Going by the Twitter reaction to Maggi being back, one can safely say that Maggi will be back with a bang.

If #Maggi tests proved negative , will govt compensate @NestleIndia for the losses due to the ban and also destroying tons of inventory? — Tinu Cherian Abraham (@tinucherian) August 13, 2015
