FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Why Indian Food Is So Delicious

I'm not going to talk too much about this one.  Suffice to say some very smart, sciency people did some complicated stuff with flavors and figured out what it is about Indian cuisine that makes it so amazing.  It's not the least complicated read in the world, but it's certainly interesting to me.

Scientists have figured out what makes Indian food so delicious

This whole business of pairing dissimilar flavors makes perfect sense.  The classic pairing of cumin and coriander, for example, gives you both earthiness and tanginess.  For whatever reason, India figured this whole thing out and they've got it on lock.  Or wait, is it "on fleek" now?  Damn kids and their slang...
