After learning the nuances of Indian cuisine (had to learn how to cook spicy food w/ peas...my fat boss hates both of those things, so she won't take my food), I found out that the fat content of their food is relatively low, and frequently use fresh vegetables and lean meats such as chicken in all their dishes.

Not only that, but it tastes delicious. Yet fatties will turn their nose up to something that isn't dripping in grease or deep fried.

I see plenty of processed snacks at Indian groceries though... and plenty (seemingly) of delicious oil and milkfat being used at Indian restaurants. It certainly possible for those people to cook for fatties. But yeah it's definitely not required in their cuisine. I eat my own renditions of Indian recipes all the time... you just control the ingredients according to the result you want, like with most any other type of food. And yeah it is so tasty.

Indian restaurant food is usually special-occasion food - calorie-dense dishes not meant to be eaten on a regular basis.
