Explanation

Rasgulla is Kolkata's most iconic sweet, made from chenna (Indian cottage cheese) and sugar syrup. It originated in Bengal and is deeply associated with Kolkata's culinary culture. The spelling 'Rasho Golla' is a phonetic variant. Langcha is also Bengali but from a different region.

AI explanation

Roshogolla (Rasgulla) is the sweet most associated with Kolkata and Bengal, made of ball-shaped dumplings of chhena (cottage cheese) cooked in a light sugar syrup. Kachagolla and Langcha are also Bengali sweets but are regional specialties rather than Kolkata's signature export, and Jalebi is a pan-Indian sweet with no special Kolkata association.
