Solution

The correct option is C Vegetarian
Although the long coastline of Gujarat ensures a huge variety of seafood, the influence of Jain culture and philosophy makes the region a predominantly vegetarian barring some communities. Gujarat has one of the largest population of Jains in the world and their practice of vegetarian cuisines, along with traditional Hindu cuisines, influence the people of Gujarat, in general, to tend towards a vegetarian diet.
