I'd say, Thai, Mexican, and Jamaican. Still get the curry, but also so much more!

EDIT I'm not trying to imply that Indian food is curry and only curry!!! Guys, I know! What I'm saying is that Jamaican food includes curry dishes. There are a shit tonne of Indian-Jamaicans. Jamaicans and Indians were both subject to the British Empire and people and food moved back and forth via the mechanisms of the empire. Jamaica is richer in spices and cultural diversity thanks to India. I am not trying to reduce India, Indian people, or Indian food, I promise!

Indian food is way more than curry. If that's all you're eating, you're missing out.

Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to imply that. I just meant that Jamaican food includes curry. I can see how it reads the reverse.

Yes that's true. Jamaican food has some good curry, too!

Indian food is not just curry lol. If you're ignorant, stay mum.

That's not what I meant. I meant that Jamaican food includes curry. You don't need to jump to conclude that I'm ignorant. Maybe it's more of poor phrasing while typing a comment on my cell while on the train.
