One of my clients, Steve from United State of America visited us yesterday. He told me that he loved hot spicy Indian food and would love to have an Indian meal. At first I told him to be careful, but when he insisted, I took him to one of my favourite places, Hyderabad House, famous for it’s Biryanis and Tandoori Chicken. I was not particularly hungry, so just ordered a tandoori chicken for myself and Chicken Biryani for Steve. At first when he looked the the Biryani, he was a bit apprehensive, but after tasting it, he literally pounded upon it and fnished it in minutes. He called the waiter and ordered one more Chicken Biryani. Normally one chicken biryani is more than enough for us, but I think Americans have more eating capacity, or rather they love overeating the food they like. No matter they are the fattest nation of the world. 
. Nevertheless, jokes apart, I was delighted to see some foregner cherishing Indian food so much. He finished the second Chicken Biryani also. Then I called the waiter and asked for the bill. To my surprise, Steve told me that he would love to have one more of those delicious Chicken Biryani. I warned him that you will seriously repent eating it. He didn’t seem to care, and ordered one more. The waiter smiled at me asked me in local language if the American is on drugs . I stared him back and he went away.
Finally after finishing off 3rd Biryani, we made a move from the retaurant. He had already started suggesting me that a food chain of Biryanis and other Indian food items will be a huge success in United States. I told him that you will soon know how much successful will it be. As soon as he came back to office, the first place that he visited is loo. He cam back and complained me of little stomach ache. I told him that this is the beginning dude. From that time, he regularly visited the loo every 15 minutes for atleast 5 times. We called a doctor immediately. Thankfully he told that there is nothing serious, it is just the spicy food which is doing the trick. He gave him some tablets and told him drink a lot of water and eat curd rice in the evening. By next morning he was fine. He came to me and told me though no matter how much he loved the Biryani, he won’t dare it eat it again because of the ordeal that he suffered. I told him that it is all a matter of habit. American’s are accustomed to eat very less spicy food, and Indians are more into highly spicy food. So our stomach, liver and other internal digestion organs are adapted accordingly. So, next time when you eat Indian food, eat less, eat to satisfy your tongue, not your stomach. Nevertheless, if you regularly keep eating Indian food, your stomach will get accustomed to it and then you can increase your diet further.
