    Can you give an example? I know that some people have a hard time with the strong smells, but I honestly have never heard it made fun of in any demeaning way. Maybe at worst a character has a bad time on a toilet due to the Indian food being so spicy, but I can’t think of how it would be made fun of. Seems well loved here in the States in my experience.

    I’m American and I can’t think of a comedy show that makes fun of Indian food. Can you name one of them so I can check it out?

    I’d say most medium to large sized cities in the US have Indian restaurants, so it’s not so unusual.

      Friends did, Big Bang Theory does all the time, but yeah pretty much every yank comedy contains some negativity towards Indian food. I don’t watch much comedy, but it seems to be a meme in their shows.
