Claim: Silver foil making process still involves animal products.
Fact-check: Most of the Silver Foil manufactures shifted to modern technologies - FACTLY
Verdict: it is true that traditional methods of silver foil manufacturing involve animal products. however, after the intervention of food regulatory authorities, courts, and animal rights activists, most of these manufacturers have shifted to modern manufacturing, avoiding animal products. while sporadic events of manufacturers using traditional methods/adulterating have been reported, according to officials, these practices have reduced to a large extent. the viral video could be an old video or related to manufacturer still practicing traditional method. hence the claim made in the post is partly true.
