So I have observed there are a lot of different countries represented just in this Singles sub-forum. Maybe you have a question about life in another country. Well, this is the thread for it. Ever wonder what they eat in India or how life is going in Israel? Maybe ask if that rumor you heard is true? Ask away.
NOTE: There will probably be some stereotypes mentioned. Please be cool about it if someone mentiones a stereotype they heard about your area. We probably haven't been there ourselves, so we only know what we've heard. That's why we're asking.
I'll take care of some common stereotypes about where I live right off the bat: No, americans are not all fat, obnoxious loud-mouths who like shotguns and hamburgers. Yes, here in the southeast of the USA we do in fact deep fry everything. For lunch yesterday I had deep fried catfish, deep fried green beans and deep fried potato wedges. And it was GOOOOOOOOD!
Question: In Israel do they really stick slips of paper in the "Wailing Wall" with their prayer requests? How does that serve as prayer, how do they believe their needs will be answered that way, how did it get started? And who cleans up those slips of paper? Do they just stay there until they decompose?
