We are what we eat.

Really? Are we? I am amused

So, how am I the pazhamporis, wadas, spicy just enough and not deep-fried fish fries, Chayas, biriyanis… How am I those… For a vane minute, yes, I am sassy and spicy like the biriyanis or fish, strong like the tea I like to have, and crispy at the surface like those wadas and Poris. But tell me, how am I those?

So, let’s look around. I know of a person who eats every morsel with utmost care and of the highest quality(expensive only), so is she pure? Quite not so. On the contrary, she is the most manipulative person I know. So, how is that logic applied here?

I know of a person who used to eat all the spices in the world, and all tangy panipuris were his favourites. But the kindest soul I know of.
So explain to me how I am becoming or if the P — poris that I devour with the strong samovar chaya?

On the contrary, I identify with these food quotes.

Yes, isnt it the best?
No Harm in indulging sometime. Workout and shed it later. But heart rules first!
I found this ….. very aptly put. Encountered many like this, others I found are a bit miserable.
