If there is a clan that can poetically describe a curry, it is a Bengali. Every Bengali is a food critic.
I eat. Therefore I Am. A Bengali is born to eat. Literally. Bengalis eat everything. The clan saw no innovation in having three different verbs that did the same thing: eating, drinking or smoking. So, they decided to stick to one. In Bangla (the language) you âeatâ everything from fish to water to their favourite brand of smokes. The idea is not to labour on âhowâ it is being consumed but âwhatâ is being consumed. Simplicity redefined.
