I'm not sure to what extent we can trust those factories. Once you go there they'll show what ever they want to do and convince you that results are not harmful. They may not give you the freedom to conduct an experiment the way you wish. Even if they do, still they can never prove that drinking them will contibute to ur health

@Shrinidhi,

Thanks for dropping in and sharing your views. You are true that these thrown open factory visits are eye-washes to provide some assurance to public about quality and to prevent sales from sinking down.

They also try to get celebrities to market these thrown open factory visits. In Tamil Channels it is Radhika Sarathkumar while in Asianet it is a Hindi actor. I forgot the name.
