I'm a very old man and I could never understand why some people in this country hate immigrants so much. Immigrants add so much to our culture that is interesting, vibrant, and valuable (and not just their food, either . . . although that's a huge plus: those dosas look delicious).

[@buttofthejoke]

only illegal immigrants.. and they don't hate them, it's simply unsustainable, and unjust towards those who wait for several years to come in legally

[@KamalikaMukherjee81]

You are a very decent human being, sir. I am not an immigrant myself but your words fill me with hopes for immigrant people all over the world. My own country, India, has been chosen by thousands, if not millions of people from different races, religions and ethnicities. Our culture reflects this like a multifarious jewel. Anthropologically speaking, my own ethnicity, Bengali, is also a mixture of different races. I do not think it is detrimental to us, quite the opposite in fact. Thank you for pointing it out. PS: Not a South Indian, but I love dosa too and make them at home quite often. These look super delicious! 😋

[@bethechange1945]

Because if they are islamic, they will ra pe your kids, they will put their women in veil, treat them as animals to produce baby, they will not tolerate freedom.

I don't believe our country hates immigrants. They just want them to come here legally like my parents. Don't let media brain wash you!

@@snjvrd i agree, dosHas like ice-cream dosHa, noodles dosha and all the inedible ones were invented in North. Of course, you're right about the language as well: Hindi is the only language northies can speak (only speak they can't even read/write their own language). Totally agree!!! 👍🏽

[@caly598]

11:57 Pouring hot liquid into a cooler box typically made from LDPE plastic isn't good because it's not heat-resistant and may melt at high temperatures. It can also release chemicals that can contaminate the food. LDPE is typically stable between the ranges of -50°C to 85°C; however, that looks like it's boiling hot. I hope someone lets them know; they seem like kind people.

[@globalcitizenn]

What would you recommend instead?

[@rajiv2849]

⁠Steel rectangular boxes that fit in the cooler and pour into that. It’s easier to clean too.
