[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Using "curry" to describe Indian food is offensive, FYI.[/quote]

Don’t bother. There were several posts yesterday that stated it’s a common slur but they were deleted. I even sent a comment over with the report button about the posters that were offended were getting deleted but apparently that’s how it works here.

Maybe he thinks we’re ‘too sensitive’. Whatever. Pretty much every Indian kid growing up in America has had to deal with “smell like curry” comments, and it’s hurtful.

WTH?  Someone said they cooked a type of food and now their house smells like x spice?  
People provided helpful hints on getting the smell out.

How is this offensive? Must be hard to be you, always looking to be offended. [/quote]

1) There is not an X spice in that dish called curry. There are spices, like cumin, and ingredients like garlic and onions.

2) it’s not believable that cooking one barely Indian dish in an Instant Pot would permeate impossible to get out smell through her house, clothes and hair.

3) and really, your clothes smell so you ask DCUM what to do? Um, hello, Change your clothes. Think your hair smells? Okay, there’s this thing called shampoo. (Also invented in India by the way, your welcome).
