Spice mixes(Masalas)

Please make a separate article on all spice mixes of India. Garam Masala, Panch phoron, Chettinad curry powder, Manglorean Pulimunchi masala... there are different types of spice mixes in our country. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.204.120.108 (talk) 16:42, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Many Tamilians are vegetarian"

This statement is patently false. Firstly, I am born and raised in Chennai and most Tamilians are not vegetarians. We eat meat at least on a weekly basis; and dairy products on a daily basis. If "many Tamilians" are indeed vegetarian (and I'm wrong in thinking otherwise), it should include a reliable source justifying that statement. I suspect no such thing exists, however. I did find this BBC article which shows that only 6% from Chennai are vegetarians. I've removed it. —Srid^YO 18:29, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that this link is a reliable source to reference Food of Andhra Pradesh district of India and can be added to this particular paragraph.

The rasgulla originated in Bengal.[52][53][54] and later became popular in erstwhile Odisha. The government of west Bengal has recently acquired the GI status of rasgulla after citing proof in court. The above line above about origin of Rasagullas is totally false. This is not expected of Wikipedia. This should be reported immediately for spreading wrong data. Rasagulla has originated in Odisha and it has the GI tag as well. 14.143.108.162 (talk) 16:11, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Both states have GIs. I've clarified the wording a bit. ◢ Ganbaruby!  (Say hi!) 02:54, 20 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Too many images

Currently, the article contains far too many images. Everyone's screen set-up is different, (screen size, pixels, zoom, side-bars etc.) but on my 24" screen, I currently see 24 images below the external links section, and 22 more images beside the references, out of a current total of 112 images.
Not only does this look extremely poor, it means that most images are not relating to, nor even anywhere near, the relevant text.
I suggest the number of images is, roughly, halved, which should enable the retained images to relate to the relevant text. Removing the 46 uses of "upright=1.1", and using the plain "upright" parameter on upright images, will also reduce the size of the retained images, making them easier to associate to the text. - Arjayay (talk) 13:10, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

BiliousBob - since I tagged the page for too many images, and started this thread, you have added yet another 7 images, making the situation even worse.
We can either work together on reducing the number of images, or I will have to act unilaterally and reduce them as I see fit. The choice is yours. - Arjayay (talk) 12:42, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I understand your concern, and going forward I will abide by it. BiliousBob (talk) 12:27, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK, so I have reduced the images to default size, saving space. How do we select images to be deleted?
My first suggestions would be the toddy tapper, Gujarati-style vegetarian thali, the third Biryani image, butter tea in a bowl and Vegetarian meals in Tamil Nadu - start with 5 - when we are happy that all the remaining images are clear and useful, we can consider galleries - Arjayay (talk) 17:32, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

-==America section stating the obvious==
-why does it state 'At sit-down restaurants with North Indian cuisine (the most common), complimentary papadum is served with three dipping sauces − typically hari chutney (mint and cilantro), imli chutney (taramind), and a spicy red chili or onion chutney − in place of European-style bread before the meal.' well obviously they serve poppadoms not 'European style bread' as it's an Indian restaurant. Next they will be saying they serve curries instead of pizza's.   <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/88.96.14.189|88.96.14.189]] ([[User talk:88.96.14.189#top|talk]]) 16:24, 23 July 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
