India's GST Council's pops a new tax on popcorn Before exploring how popcorn became ubiquitous across societies worldwide, let's examine its relationship with tax inflation. During World War II, even wealthy civilians struggled to afford a single daily meal. Meanwhile, poor farmers roasted popcorn to stave off hunger.

Horrible experience at Tata motors showroom Took a delivery of a Nexon today and I realised why people keep blaming tata motors for poor customer service. When we came for delivery, the behaviour of the staff was shocking. No one came to attend us, offer any drink or water even after purchasing such an expensive car.

Not to add on top of that where 20 something staff (gaurd, cleaner etc) surrounded us before leaving and not letting us leave and asking... 4 10 replies

Whatever happened to the good old humble Birinji rice? I don't find it anywhere. Has it been entirely replaced by Biryani Back in the old days we had something called Birinji saatham. It was humble. Was spicy but not overpowering with those Biryani masalas. I remembered it and thought could order on Swiggy or Zomato but no shops have them. Is it only a catering special item these days.

And do you really need to explain to the authorities why you’re posting that online? Didn’t think so. We’re not trying... 2 10 replies
