In Nepali food culture, Rum Pum carries strong nostalgic and social value. Many people grew up eating it as an after-school snack, during travel, or in gatherings with friends. It is widely sold in small shops and street stalls, where vendors often turn it into flavorful, customized dishes. For many Nepalis, Rum Pum represents not just quick food, but a shared experience—easy to prepare, affordable, and enjoyed across generations. Much like Wai Wai, it has become a symbol of modern Nepali snacking culture and a reminder of home for those living abroad.
