[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to work at Trader Joe's. We were never instructed to lie about liking something we didn't. We were never told to exaggerate our opinions, either. If I liked something, I was honest about it. if it wasn't for me, I was honest about it.

As someone of South Asian descent, you would hear me being honest about how I think [b]all the Indian products are overrated.[/b]

You don't even need to be South Asian to know the "indian" products are overrated.[/quote]

Huh. I am South Asian. Is it all authentic? No. But I don’t mind the taste of what they have. We get the veggie masala burgers and a couple of the curries to have for a fend for yourself night. They’re tasty, if a little high on sodium. [/quote]

Also South Asian. One of my teen's favorite easy meals is veggie masala burgers with the rice from the lamb vindaloo. Luckily, I really like the vindaloo, so I have it with roti, and save her the rice.[/quote]

Another South Asian here.  I like to cook my own food.  Anytime I have eaten South Asian food (frozen) is absolutely horrendous.  Thankfully, DH and I, both love to cook and we are foodies, so we are not big fans.

Finally - South Asian vegetable dishes are cooked poorly even in the best of restaurnants.   I almost want to puke when people come and rave about any Indian restaurnant's palak-paneer, cholley, aloo gobi.  Just stop it! [/quote]
