I had a boiled peanut and Indian cuisine for dinner.
Never again for either of those selections!

FRESH boiled peanuts are pretty good just not an every day food. Indian food can be Very Dangerous.
OP
The mushy peanuts tasted like Lima beans.
Everybody, except me, wanted Indian food last night. Told the crypt keeper never again

Indian food places need recommendations from people that have eaten there several times…..
Years ago, I attended a conference in San Francisco. One evening, one of the other conference goers said there was a great Indian restaurant just a couple blocks away and suggested that a group of us go out for Indian food. Sounded good to me. I was looking forward to a good bison or antelope steak with some Indian fry bread on the side. Not so. Everything was loaded with curry and who-knows-what else.
Yep. I'll pass.

Last time I ate Indian food I thought I was going through a colonscopy cleanse later in the evening...
Caje we ate at the same resturante, Did not know you had been in Indiana
I have tried the first item when down in Florida and did not enjoy it.
The second item has yet to be tried, after I tried a Greek meal, a long time ago.
I don't think I will go there, thank you.

I've never tried a boiled peanut or Indian food, but yesterday I pan fried some salted in the shell peanuts.
The shells ended up a little crisper and saltier and the peanuts themselves a little harder.
Not bad but not a whole lot better.

While I don't eat it often, I like Indian food.
I am always astonished at how tasty and filling they are able to make vegetarian dishes, like vegetable curry. I think it has to do with using really fresh spices.
Butter chicken is a simple dish that most people, including me, like.
Have not tried boiled peanuts but if they taste like mushy lima beans, no thanks. Hate mushy lima beans. My mom used to make those regularly when I was a kid, unfortunately.

I like Indian food, and I like it spicy. For me, the high point, though, is a salty lassi.
Back in the days as a rookie cop, assigned to a footbeat, my fellow officers friends took the new kid (me) to dinner before our shift. Dinner at an India restaurant. Midnight shift! cruel, Cruel, cruel.

I have tried boiled peanuts only once, from a roadside stand somewhere in Louisiana. I can take them or leave them. I once had a boss who was an (India) Indian, and we went together to Indian restaurants frequently. There are many of them here in San Antonio. The one we went to for lunch the most was an Indian buffet. The food there was always excellent. I have tried to get my wife to eat there but she always refuses. Insofar as I know she has never been to an Indian restaurant or eaten any Indian food so I can't explain her reluctance to try it.
I have been told that raw peanuts must be boiled for a LONG time before they soften enough to eat.

Boiled peanuts are not fit for man or beast. Mushy lima beans taste good compared to boiled peanuts. Larry
Only had Indian food once. It was a saffron basmati rice shrimp plate, and it was good. The main thing I remember about it was that their idea of medium spicy is MUCH different than my idea. It will be ordered mild next time I try it.

I live boiled peanuts, and Indian food, just not spicy.

You can keep boiled peanuts. They even sound nasty.
Indian food can be wonderful. Many years ago I was TDY back to England and staying in a little hotel next door to one of the best Indian places in the capital. As my coworker (another ex-pat Brit) was an Indian food fanatic, we ate there whenever we could get in. I like a bit of spice but my buddy is into the stuff that strips the pattern off the plate. He ordered some fancy chili naan bread one night, and I swear that stuff drained tubes in my head new to medical science.
