History
Abar khabo was invented by Nobin Chandra Das when requested by the Maharani Swarnamoyee Devi of Cossimbazar to create a new kind of sweet. Upon eating the abar khabo the Maharani exclaimed "আবার খাবো" (Abar Khabo) which became its name.[3][4]
Kolkata-based sweet shops of the Gupta Brothers and Bhim Chandra Nag are known for making abar khabo.[5]

gollark: My school holiday technically doesn't start until next week.
gollark: I'd assume "smart" TVs also use bluetooth-y remotes for some reason, but we've avoided them, fortunately.
