Oh Camille, even I draw the line somewhere.

I’m glad you have food standards….? I suppose ketchup and chai would be pretty disgusting. Wonder if it is still disgusting when done with soy chai. Hmmm.

Puli, I messed up in my comment. I meant to say ” to not have post-break-up sex.” Anyway, I was just teasing you. No hard feelings.

You really eat them with ketchup? Do you eat them with ketchup while drinking chai?

Oh Camille, even I draw the line somewhere. I either dip them in chai or with ketchup as a snack. BTW, Marie biscuit topped with Mango achar ( homemade or Bedekar or in desperation ANY brand ) is also a great snack.

Is this a threadjack or what ???

Runa, I had the unfortunate sinking feeling that those were the biscuits you were talking about. You really eat them with ketchup? Do you eat them with ketchup while drinking chai? If so, why???

I thought the hetero-guy hug is when guys grab one another’s hand (not interlinked, but clasped), pull that hand to their chest in a kind of “bro!” movement, and then use the unoccupied arm to semi-hug their fellow hetero guy friend. Does that description even make sense? I had a guy friend give me a hetero-guy hug and didn’t know whether to be amused, offended, or pleased to have broken down gender-barriers around hugs

Actually the Equal + ketchup was not as gross as it looked. She did it so casually (hoping I wouldn’t notice) until I stopped midsentence and said, “Did you just…?” to which she replied, “Yes. This is how we do!” (she then told an anecdote about Chinese-Americans not being able to get sweet and sour sauce back in the day, this being her grandma’s approximation, etc., etc.) I tried it… didn’t love it, but it did taste relatively similar to sweet and sour sauce (at least for dipping purposes), consistency aside.

i could never eat those.

So while every one else goes “ga -ga”, you go “gag gag”

The proper desi way to eat them is to dip them into a mug of steaming chai – bliss!

runa – i love parles – 3 for $1 at patel bros! he he

ak, another reason to love parle -G
