experiencing culture through eating

Today I was eating lamb vindaloo, and for a brief second, I could taste the coarse black arm hair of an attractive Indian woman. I say "taste" for lack of a more appropriate word, because there was no arm hair actually in the food, but it was a sensation closer to actually being that coarse black arm hair. So weird. This is what I love about ethnic food. I was actually taken to such a specific and intimate place as an Indian woman's arm hair. Really it was some of the best vindaloo I've ever had.

COME ON ICE CREAM!

Fred, do you watch No Reservations?

Oh yeah, an episode of that is another cheap plane ticket to a foreign country.

fuck ya... indian food seems to take me completely out of the standard canadian culture really quickly... I think because the spices are just so goddamn different tasting!

Maybe Indian weddings do the same?

 

Mods plz merge this thread with the catholic wedding thread.

lol

 

Mods please merge the merged thread with the 'Angry Birds Space' thread and also the 'Short films by Joe LiTrenta' thread.

Seconded. Then merge with the Scrillex thread.

experiencing culture through eating ... yogurt

 

*ba-dum*

Then unmerge every 6th post into a thread called "Abortion: Yes or no: A retrospective into gay marriage, genocide, and racist death penalties (is the US or the UK better ((food and poop))"

 

then lock it

 

then print it out and burn it.

fucking exactly. I could smell dark sandled, heavily calloused feet mixed in with sweat, sand, and leather as I read that.

fred-you could probably write a very entertaining/funny/bizarre food blog that could make you money in some way.

 

i have no idea about the money part, but it sounds right.

its very hard to find good indian food. Ive been to places people raved about and left very disappointed. Its kind of random finding a good place. we all have our tastes i guess, but i think some people just dont know, but when its done right, hot damn its good. yes., it transports you

Lol, I know a really good place not far where i live, walking in this guy's restaurant is like stepping into another world and the food is the real deal, love it

i thought vindaloo was british, like tikka masala.

i have, however just had a wee blast on internet knowledge and learned it is not. i only think that because my dad used to travel to india for business alot and said most of popular curries british people eat dont even seem to exist over there, and have been formulated for our considerably weaker tastebuds.

 

maybe ive been misinformed. the older i get, the more i find that its not a good idea to blindy trust what your parents tell you when you're young

If anything, vindaloo is Portugese from when Portugal colonized India. I think "vindaloo" itself is a Hindi-Romanization of a Portugese word "Perigo Madruga!" or something like that

i think it was originally made with pickled pork (?).
