Cultural gap

I work with and around people of many cultures. I very much enjoy the diversity...and quite honestly just don't think about us being "different". Friday, my work was having lunch brought in from Cracker Barrel. The menu was being passed around so that each person could select their choice. The menu was passed to "K" a very nice and highly educated woman from India. She glanced through the offerings and queried, "What is this?" One of my co-workers responded, "It's country cooking." Without missing a beat, K responded, "I guess that depends which country you come from."


It made me smile.
