"Military" is a codeword for "no vegetarian food".
no. You can get vegetarian food also in military restaurants. People can rarely afford non-veg. At the most they order a veg meal, or idli/dosai, and, if they are splurging, maybe a small non-veg side dish. As far as India is concerned, so-called non-veg food is 90% veg with a bit of meat as an extra. This is unlike the west where meat is the main dish and starch/grass is a side dish. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Senior Project Officer NRC-FOSS http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ _______________________________________________ Talk-in mailing list Talk-in@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-in
