印度的饮食
Foods vary widely in India, depending on the culture and region. For example, rice is a staple in the south, while roti (wheat bread) is the staple in the north. Indian meals are usually very spicy. Different types of curry, made with eggs, fish, meat, or vegetables, are popular. Vegetarianism is widely practiced, often for religious reasons. All castes and religions have their own rules and customs governing food. Hindus consider cows to be sacred and they, like Sikhs, will not eat beef. Muslims do not eat pork or drink alcohol.
