Im sure Rotten_Apple wasnt implying anything detrimental Kunal. In fact, what you say is very interesting. My father was in India, just after WW2 and stayed for a couple of years i believe. He said that the food was delicious and allways tried to eat some in Englend whenever he could, but couldnt find any "hot" enough - ha ha.

Unfortunately, my stomach cant even take mild currys, let alone hot ones :&#39;(

It also helps to keep the body temperature level when its very hot. Plus, a lot of those spices really are good for you - in normal quantities anyway.

Even though Kunal hates India, i would love to go there someday. Ive made myself a promise that before i download my final song, i shall take the MC and cruise to the Eastern delights (whatever that is).

utter bullshit, i did some research on the net and all the british invented was the name

I don&#39;t remember exactly when, or how, but I&#39;d argued with a couple of Brits on separate occasions about the origin of the curry — they believed the English invented it, I thought that was just plain ridiculous. Pity I don&#39;t remember the discussions having progressed, because all of us could have been somewhat right. Perhaps, the English did in a sense invent the curry — they invented the name, but of course, not the cuisine


Curries didn&#39;t exist until the British decided to invent them. On arriving in India and sticking their flags in the ground, the British decided to investigate the local cuisine, and on discovering that the Indians had far more dishes and culinary skill than the entire United Kingdom, the British decided to hide this fact by calling every dish ever created by an Indian "curry". In this way the Victorians could perpetrate the myth that the Indians weren&#39;t as cultured as they were because they only had one national meal, the curry, where the British had two, namely roast beef and fish &#39;n&#39; chips.

However, the Brits did invent curry powder&#33;
