Indian Food

Spices ARE food, herbs ARE food. Indian food is based on that, these spices and herbs are not an addition to the food, they are PART OF the food.
Sure, a crapload of curry is equal to an apple. Each both and tell me which oozes from your pores.
 
Mexican food is among the best. I suggest Taco Bell as a culinary treat.
I recently bought taco's at Taco Bell. If I hadn't paid for them, I would have tossed them, they were that bad.
 
A lot of Indians stink. If your "food" is oozing out of your pores, then--well, if you need advice on that, you're hopeless.
 
Indian food sucks ass.

Koreans too. They all smell like fish.

I'm not impressed by any cuisine that is constantly loaded with spices. If you have to cover up your original dish, then it's not good to begin with.
You are close to being absolutely correct. Highly spiced foods generally come from areas prone to spoilage and the spices were to cover that up.

I am a devotee of Indian food and Persian food. A good tahdig is enough to bring tears to your eyes. There is one Indian restaurant near by in Eagle but I have not been there.

I've found that like every type of food, regions have a lot to do with how good they are. I particularly like food from Michoacan and Chihuahua, but not really a fan of Sonoran or Baja food. Comparing Taco Bell or any other American-Mexican fast food outlet to actual Mexican cuisine is like comparing McDs to a good well-aged and prepared steak dinner.
 
And then there's pork. Some of it must taste like shit because people load it up all kinds of spices (oh, excuse me; I mean they load it with "food"), and then try to pass it off as some delight for the palate.
 
Curry is just a ground leaf, a single spice, lots of Indian dishes don't even use it.

I cooked a wonderful chicken Madras years ago and the recipe's primary spice was in fact black pepper.
Right, so now this leaf is the same thing as a piece of romaine.

The pepper, spices, or whatever you call it is to complement the food, not overwhelm it.

Indians suck bigly at two things: food and phone customer service.

You haven't lived, look at Lamb Rogan Josh, the cilantro garnishing makes the overall aroma and flavor off the scales.

Pork isn't all that common in Indian cuisine.

They are also loaded with health benefits. Those spices are very popular as nutritional supplements. When I see people in India I notice they are thin, and the Indian people in my town, those who have spent considerable time living in the U.S. have the typical American body type (fat) compared to those who speak little english and work in the Indian restaurant's. You can tell who has lived for a while, and who has not.

I just started takng a turmeric supplement but rarely cook with it, although I have it in the counter.
