Indian Peapod



India's version of groceries delivered to your house. This is actually one of my fondest memories from my childhood visits (and some of my earliest). Sabzi Wallas (vegetable vendors) would shout out "fresh vegetables!" as they rode through the neighborhood. People would come out and buy what they needed for that day. Gives new (or perhaps original) meaning to "fresh and local". Obviously it still happens today and is an intrinsic part of Indian culture.
