Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Everyone?

Bhavānanda: Everyone.

Prabhupāda: Miṣṭi baḍā?

Bhavānanda: Miṣṭi baḍā we give, gur and peanut with little coconut in it and masalā. We're famous now in the whole area, even Jayapatākā was seeing one government official in Krishnanagar, and he said, "Did you bring me any of that baḍā?" They all want.

Prabhupāda: Something must be given.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes, if we get a good cook like Shantilal and he can cook hundreds of kachori and we can sell, and then the next room have one men who serves them prasādam, everyone will come to take prasādam.
