African food is so much better than Indian food it’s not even funny, so why does Indian food get all the love ?

[frush11]

Because Indians moved around the world and spread their food. Most importantly the English fell in love with their food, and marketed it

African food has strong flavors. It takes a lot of getting used to for the average Westerner.

East african food is the goat

Man idk I mess with Indian food crazy, especially this one joint I go down to

Indian food generally has more vegan options which is trendy and healthier. Ethiopian food is like that but there are more Indian spots around

Indians have a high rate of heart disease diagnosis because of the amount of ghee they put in all their food.

Between ghee and palm oil (used in some West African foods) palm oil is better because it doesn’t have cholesterol

Butter chicken and Rice with garlic naan is delicious. You’re playing yourself if you sleep on Indian food. Who cares if African food isn’t as popular as indian food? Why are you comparing an entire continent (which country in Africa?) to India?

indian food aint shyt

 

[BlackAchilles]

"African" food tho like the whole continent got one cuisine

 

[tuckgod]

East African and Caribbean food is Indian food.

Show some respect.

How is Indian food held in more high regard? I never walked in an Indian joint & they told me they ran out of Butter Chicken for the day...

I haven't had enough of one or the other to make an educated judgement

But the indian food I like is just

And they massively contributed to cooking all around the world with the spices

Ghee is waaayyy healthier than palm oil… matter of fact, I don’t think ghee is unhealthy whatsoever

there was an ethiopian place in town that went under a couple years ago. supposedly theres a food truck but ive yet to see it

indian food is more popular because its more well known, and there are WAY more indian restaurants.

also, while there are many variations of styles in indian food, africa is an entire continent. waaaay more diversity in the menu

since i havent had a chance to try african food yet i abstained from voting
