Calls to cancel curry

What was their reasoning for buying large amounts of fresh o food then waiting for it to go off?

as I could understand we can’t get fresh but your saying this is deliberate even when fresh is available.


Has your family ever been o. One of those weird eater shows?

'It tastes too sweet' I already said that. There can't be any base flavour left in the veggies.

Its the same reason as waiting for things to ferment in other cultures. Some people prefer the flavour that way.

Sounds just like Subway then.

Subways is refrigerated.
 
Just eaten some potato stuffed rotis my mrs brought home last night...better tell my manager I need the rest of the afternoon off.
 
Literally the same thing at every religious and cultural event, extended family, whole network of 'genuine' south asian food in Bradford and Leicester.

FYI said food is never 'sold' to wypipo.


Yeah no, if this was a common and widespread phenomenon or taste or culture it would be reported.

it would be the curio it would be India’s century egg


As a bored middle class white guy it would be heavily featured in the blogs, tv, food sites I read.

no one I know from there has ever mentioned this I’ve even messaged them specifically asking now , closest I got was it was wrong to waste white foods and so milk and flour should be mixed and used in the garden for the plants.

this would be a trendy london hipster taste where I could get it along side my bowl of Hakarl and caco fermented goats milk.


It’s complete absence from the World Wide Web, cookery sites and any recipe translatable by Google says this is either ilexclusive to your family unit.


Or you’re a little Prince who thinks veg a day old is a rotting flavourless mess and so has a skewed perspective on what’s really happening

or you’re just lying
 
Theres also a dish made from the leftover stale / expired roti. i can't remember what its called.


Bread pudding in the uk mate.

Or stuffing and breadcrumbs for frying, stale also good for fondue.


See what I mean the dishes for stale food are commonly known this weird veg thing would have a name

Its not any kind of 'weird veg thing', its just normal veg curries that most people that make them don't use fresh vegetables for but rather prefer to use old ones.

When making samosas and such, you use old stale peas and other vegetables, not fresh sweet ones. Otherwise the final thing would be too sweet.

And ofc its a common thing, why exactly does everyone say that spices are added to mask that the food has expired? Because ofc that is exactly what is done.

Googling the names of over 75% of the foreign crap that ethnic families make gives zero results - these are mostly tribal dishes and the people making them don't even know how to read and write, let alone put the recipe on the internet.

Yeah no, if this was a common and widespread phenomenon or taste or culture it would be reported.

Except here I am reporting it and the typical wypipo response is 'LALALALALA THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN LALALALALALA RACISM LADIDADIDA!'. Same typical response as to all the crap with asian rape gangs. Obviously this however is no where near as serious so why would anyone notice it?

And it is actually reported - I already posted the food poisoning rates from India, which I believe are the highest in the world?

Also who would think that the people that eat expired food as such by choice would be reporting themselves? Making the assumption again that they even have any knowledge of food safety - I'm literally talking about first generation migrants from some random tribal village that can barely communicate.

Also lets say you're at an ethnic wedding and you get served expired and obviously horrendous tasting snacks (which is the case in 100% of South Asian weddings), what exactly are you gonna do, phone the police? Do you really think 8 year old me would have realized to have done anything about it at the time?

So you're not among the 13%+ of the population there that get food poisoned, good for you.

Educated family? Richer than others? More affluent? Higher socioeconomic brahmin?

Educated and affluent, sure. Similar to almost everyone I went to school with, across multiple cities, during a 17 year time period. Never once come across what you've described.

And no, not 'brahmin'.

There are a couple of dishes where stale bread for instance works better than fresh, but that's the closest thing I can think of to what you're describing, and even that's a stretch. Other cuisines have exactly the same - french toast for instance is better with bread that's a few days old.

I have no idea what you've been exposed to, but it seems very specific to you - certainly not applicable to me, my family or anyone I know - and I've actually grown up there.

Try visiting the average asian house in Bradford or Leicester where none on the adults can speak a single word of English.

Its not that the 'food tastes better', its simply a stupid idiot tribal dumb dumbs with zero brain cells between them thing that have zero understanding of what they are doing.

'Put it back in the fridge then and it will become fresh again'.

Expired food is served in all those little snack packets at asian weddings because it is sourced from sketchy illegal sources for cheap. Nothing is done about such practice because that would be racist.

I'm not sure how that equates to the whole country of India, given that's what you're commenting on. And out of the two of us, I'm the one who has actually lived there for an extended period.

Quite a lot of India is still tribalistic and illiterate. Their food isn't the same as your food. The average village idiot doesn't even know what bacteria is or anything about food spoilage. A lot of such people move to Britain and continue their cultural traditions here.

Living in a modern part of India doesn't give you any experience of what lower class people there and in the UK experience.

As a comparison, I guess that you didn't have a forced marriage when you were 16, so therefore this doesn't happen to anyone else in or from India does it?

I can't claim first-hand knowledge of what goes on in the villages, but logically speaking, if things were that bad, it would make the Indian newspapers/be commented on in the media. Whenever I've seen any media in India, it does not. Family lives there and again, no one has commented on anything remotely like this. Lack of education is an issue, and is one of the reasons why the vaccine take-up has been lower than hoped and covid was spreading, but I've never seen a reference to food hygiene. And whilst I don't have direct first hand experience, my family does have domestic help, many of whom come from villages and some are/have been live-in. However, never come across food lying around the way you describe it.

And that's not the best comparison - I may not have had it, but I am aware it happens because it is reported in the media, as well as through the (very) concessional anecdote. What you've described however, this is the first time anyone has mentioned it. From what others in the thread are saying as well, no one else seems to have been aware of any such practices.

Who said its a bad thing?

A month past expiry (assuming western standards) vegetables is hardly going to harm people that are used to eating them. The problem happens when they then take the same approach to chicken.

Also my Fathers extended family in India keep slave's, do yours?
 
This has gone completely off the rails and has now got nothing to do with a blogger's opinion, which is what the thread was meant to be about.
