My friend and I had some Indian food for dinner tonight

Not cool man. We do use fingers and water, but a generous splashing of water. That way, you can be sure that there is not even a hint of shit stuck to your ass. And we use liquid soap to wash our hands after. If shit on your fingers seems disgusting to you, so does it to us. We're people too, you know. And frankly, i think not cleaning ur ass with water after a dump is very unhygienic. I dont know how you can just use some toilet paper and wipe it off.

There. I said it. I know i'm going to get a lot of flak for this, but it had to be said. It is my personal opinion though, cos i dont know the advantages/disadvantages of wiping my ass with toilet paper.

No, you have a point. Using TP you don't actually TOUCH your feces (hopefully), but you DO by the nature of the process leave a tiny bit of it smeared all over your crack until the next time you take a shower. Think of THAT next time you climb into a public pool.
I guess some people probably do secondary wipes with moistened TP...but not many.

Washing with soap & water after using the toilet is a much more important hygienic step than how you wipe.

Me, I grew up using TP, so that's what I do. But I understand your point.

Now back to the Indian food...one that isn't quite as commonly mentioned, but excellent, is Malai Kofta.

India makes about the only vegetarian food that tastes as good (or even better!) than non-vegetarian food. Especially samosas...I feel sorry for people who order the meat samosas just because they're carnivores. So am I, but the veggie ones are just plain better tasting. Especially with a hint of tamarind sauce and mint chutney.

What about shit that gets stuck under their nails??? That isn't so easily washed away, especially if nails are not cut short daily.

I wouldn't be able to stomach indian food with that being part of their culture.

I dunno, Indian food grosses me out.

An older lady I know used to work in a factory with a lot of Indians. She said they would always go to the bathroom with a cup of water and was boggled by this.

She found out why later when a future tenant asked her if he could run a garden hose from the kitchen to the bathroom. He explained that they did not believe in using toilet paper and that was their method of wiping, by hand w/ water.

After hearing that, I always am skeptical of Indian food.

You eat with your right hand, left hand is used for... other purposes.

LOL.. it does not work that way. It is pretty easy to avoid that.. it becomes very clear once you get used to it.

Meh... It's the same as eating sausage. Just enjoy the food, and think happy thoughts. Thinking about it too much ruins the experience.

originated in the UK just like Chicken Tikka Masala.

DaFuq? Now you are going to tell me General Tso's Chicken isn't Chinese.

Oops looks like you guys are right and it originated in the UK.

I was reading a guide on the different Indian currys in order of heat and that was on there.
