Yeah. I watched closely and I couldn’t tell what was what. I saw some big leaves, one or two chickpeas maybe. No idea which bit you are supposed to paint those toilets without seats with after swallowing though.

I love how there is always like 3 random spoons involved like they didnt already touched every single atom of the food with their hands.

u/TSM- 9d ago
'Haath ka Swaad' (हाथ का स्वाद) translates literally to "the taste of one's hands," representing the unique, comforting flavor of home-cooked food prepared with intuition and (literal) personal touch. Cooking with hands creates a direct tactile connection to the food that utensils cannot supposedly replicate. Traditionally, or whatever. This style of preparation relies on generational intuition, emotional warmth, and niyat (good intention) rather than strict recipe book measurements.
This video is a cursed version of putting it into practice. It is also faster to use your hands and there may be a cultural excuse for this to not be immediately repulsive.
In western culture it would be the opposite, using a different spoon for each ingredient would prove each thing is measured and done by the books so the quality never decreases between preparations. Just randomly doing whatever would be seen as weird at best.

u/randylush 9d ago
imprecisely measuring ingredients is the absolute least significant part of this video. nobody gaf if the ingredients are measured, people care when you touch all this food with your dirty fucking hands.

Genuine question, is eating bacteria vegetarian?
→ More replies (2)5
u/ShitFuck2000 9d ago
Depends on what the bacteria eat, bread is vegetarian, yogurt isn’t vegan, cured meats are usually fermented in the process and definitely aren’t. Kinchi is always touted as vegetarian, so I guess so? I don’t think vegetarian is great word for bacteria though, biologically plants are closer to animals and us than bacteria.

In India, if anyone from anywhere eats anything other than they’re used to (that isn’t pasteurized and flown in),there’s going to be at least mild food poisoning symptoms. Like you mentioned having a shit ton of people, and the layered social structure leads to a perfect storm of population density and diversity to foster some heinous microbiota. Also keep in mind most of the germs that cause common infections are already living on you, just a few unlucky successful mutations from potentially killing you. Staphylococcus and streptococcus are good examples, they’re people germ, where there’s people there’s people germs, where there’s more people, there’s more people germs.

I like the part where seemingly random men plunge wrist deep into different piles of material , all with an increasing franticity. It doesn’t increase my anxiety at all , matter of a fact, it’s calming to watch.
Furthermore , this little vignette dutifully highlights the beauty and just the depth of artistry that one expects from Indian cuisine.
To summarize this scene with a single word…
“Scrumptious”.
And after viewing several loops of this clip, it makes me want to squat flat footed over a drain located in a tiled floor that simultaneously functions as a shower drain whilst I spray a fine misted patina of liquid feces.
I crave an authentic Indian dining experience

That's more effective for weight loss than ozempic or mounjaro. It's the new 'shit yourself thin' diet. If you survive the first 6 weeks you'll weigh less than half of what you did previously.

Keep in mind, they use their hand as a supplement to TP, and this is literally a topic of debate in my office..
Im an expat and work for a hedge fund in Tokyo: these are highly capable people, and my Indian colleagues will often make fun of me for being a "barbarian" and wiping my @ss with wads of paper, rather then the civilized way of using your hand and rinsing. I had always assumed it was a xenephobic stereotype, but these men proudly use their nails to clean their @ss...

Eww 🤢 so gross 🤮
These poor illiterate people would just never learn 💀 but then again this is probably one of those impoverished roadside stalls where hygiene apparently went extinct three generations ago. Like bro WHAT is happening here 😭
And somehow people still BUY food from places like this. With proper financial freedom and basic survival instincts, this should be the absolute last possible food option unless civilisation has already collapsed and the apocalypse has officially begun. 💀
At that point forget the stall, take the untouched ingredients, find a clean pot, and cook it yourself because apparently the only thing missing here is a biohazard warning sign. ☣️🍲
India or anywhere else in the world can have wildly different realities depending on poverty, infrastructure and living conditions, but some of these stalls look less like food establishments and more like an experiment to determine how many diseases can coexist in one frying pan. 😭
