Darwin’s Pizza

Darwin’s Pizza

5 Comments
December 30th, 2009

One of the first transformations during the initial days of economic globalization in India has been the way Indians defined ‘food’. The ’still-up-and-running’ Parantha corners, which used to be the sole dine-out options, now compete with Global brands like McDonalds, KFC, CCD, Pizza Huts, to name a few. One interesting facet of this fierce competition is how old Darwin steps in once again to teach us evolution. And no; monkeys do not turn to homo sapiens this time. This time the chicken capsicum pizza turns into a paneer-cheese pizza. Italians will be petrified getting to hear this!
