Thought the 'don't eat with your left hand' thing was just a myth until my trip to Delhi
I always figured that rule about not eating with your left hand in India was something people online blew out of proportion. Then last year I was in Delhi for a wedding and grabbed a samosa with my left hand at a street stall. The guy running it just stared at me and shook his head, didn't say a word. My friend later told me it's a real thing tied to hygiene and respect, and I felt like a total idiot. Anyone else had a moment where a cultural rule you thought was fake turned out to be dead serious?
