minus-squareVery_Bad_Janet@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0·11 months agoI’m American and I can’t think of a comedy show that makes fun of Indian food. Can you name one of them so I can check it out? I’d say most medium to large sized cities in the US have Indian restaurants, so it’s not so unusual.
