I'm actually intrigued by the combination of rice, yoghurt and lentils, depending on what they're spiced with. It's true our sensibilities are different based on where we've grown up and what we're used to eating. But I tend to be open to all sorts of foods. I'm currently reading _Climbing the Mango Trees_ by Madhur Jaffrey, and even though I've never lived anyplace but the southern United States, my mouth is watering throughout the whole book.

It's interesting how cultural background affects what we think of as edible. I am horrified by the idea of mixing up rice, yoghurt, and cooked spiced lentils all together, but it's a common combination in Southern India.
