[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are Bangladeshis mostly Bengali? Not that OP would eat it, nor am I advising it but Bengalis are known for amazing desserts and also great fish. Fish curry and rice should be like the daily meal - and it's all cooked all the way through to the point that the fish falls right apart so I don't imagine it's unsafe. Hopefully DH is enjoying some of those foods from back home.[/quote] Op isn’t visiting a middle class Bengali Indian home where they will have awesome desserts and fish all the time and then retire to have chai and political/philosophical discourse/debate! [/quote] Sounds like she IS visiting a middle class Bengali home though. May not be UPPER middle class so they may not have those things daily, but seems middle class enough that they'd make fish a few times and cook awesome desserts a few times just bc their DIL and grandkids are visiting. Though they may not be doing this because these things are expensive so why bother if DIL and grandkids will just sit there eating ramen not even drying the fish curry or desserts.[/quote] op here. desserts are always bought outside. there are enough people around that they are cooking a lot. i haven't seen any fish but I'm sure they have it. i think dh has a hard time eating the food here. i have friends who have told me they were forced to eat the local food when they visited India in the summer and it was very hard for them. at least I am not being forced to eat food I don't want to eat. dh mentioned before the tip we could bring the kids shopping for clothes and now that we are here he being a hypocrite and saying they don't need clothing. I am so mad, and I can't just grab an Uber and go to Aarong. I love shopping here for gifts for my family and friends. [/quote]
