Indian Food is praised worldwide and celebrated in countries like the UK and Germany. Americans, why do all your comedy shows rag on Indian food? (lemmy.ml)

That's always how ethnic food works though. It always starts with the original base food then gets modified by the local culture to fit their tastes and available ingredients. Chinese is the same. American Chinese food isn't the same as Indian Chinese food which isn't the same as French Chinese food. American Thai food isn't 100% authentic either, it's just different than Indian food because it's not based on Indian food.
