coffee_rules Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Basically, it started with a guy on Reddit narrating an incident when he was playing in his friend’s house, a Swedish family, it was lunch time and his friend went to eat lunch alone and the family didn’t offer anything to this guy. It turned out to be a viral story about how Swedish are racist in this woke BLM world. I think it’s the opposite in Indian families. We force feed anybody entering the house. Chai, coffee, biskut, mixtures, sev, fruits or even breakfast/lunch. Once I had to eat a garlic rasam at a friend’s house (as a kid) which had big cloves of garlic floating around and I hate garlic . ”Aap itne dinon ke baad aaye hain, kuch na kuch to lena hi padega” , zabaradasti khilate hain mehamaanon ko. Any such experiences? BacktoCricaddict and Vijy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chai, coffee, biskut, mixtures, sev, fruits or even breakfast/lunch. And we do it at a higher level in Karnataka. Nowhere else have I heard strangers who were just introduced to you offer to feed you. Depending on time of day, the first question would be: Before 8 am: aaythaa kaapi? (done with coffee?) 8 am to -12 noon :aaythaa thinDi? (... breakfast?) 12 N - 2 PM: aaythaa ooTaa? (...meal i.e., lunch?) 2 PM - 3 PM: aaythaa tea? 3 PM - 7 PM: aaythaa tiffan? 7 PM - whenever: aaythaa ooTaa? (...dinner?) But the key is that the question is only rhetorical. Even if you answer "Yes," we will drag you and treat you to something either at a "hotel" or at home. At least it was that way when I left in the early 90s. One time I went back to visit when I was still single and ate 9 times in a day, including Shataabdi express breakfast. At 10 pm, it all came out against gravity.

It's a common problem with karnataka vegetarian people. Mash it fry it like shallow fry it till smell subsides before adding veggies. Or fully cook it like in a pressure cooker with dal etc. coffee_rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of what I cook, I either sauté it or boil it. Wifey eats parathe with raw onion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarke Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Typical of the cancel crowd, nothing is good enough for them. I don't know if this meal thing is true, maybe its a cultural one. Swedes have provided a good amount of generosity over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure masal fried and looses raw smell as well, many cuisines in India, Caribbean,SL etc don't do this often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am loving the examination and frying that swedes are getting wish Fins get it next, similar fake liberal society. Ofcourse not all of them but plenty. They are part fake liberal part woke muslim appeasement society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
