In fact, it is not a culture to use hands for everything in India, but it is just a habit that has been circulating in Indian countries for hundreds of years. There were many ascetic monks and Christians in India hundreds of years ago, and it was also a relatively poor country (although India is not particularly rich now). These ascetics and Christians believe that the left hand is evil and used to touch dirty things, while the right hand is used to touch gods. This has the habit of wiping your ass with your left hand and grabbing food with your right hand.

0 1, in India, the left hand represents toilet paper, and eating with the left hand will be beaten.

In Indian countries, even if tourists use their left hand to grab something to eat or say hello, they will be abused or even beaten by local people. In the eyes of Indians, the left hand is an evil hand, which is only used when wiping your ass and doing farm work. If it is used to greet people, it is disrespectful, and it is even more serious to hold food with your left hand, and you will think that you are provoking them. Of course, the general tour group to India will inform the local customs and habits, and no one will deliberately communicate with the locals with his left hand.

Not all Indians wipe their stools by hand, but most poor families do.

Although the habit of wiping your ass with your hands has been handed down by Indians for hundreds of years. But in fact, not all Indian people wipe their bottoms with their hands. With the economic growth in India, there are also many rich families in India. Rich families in India also have a toilet, and toilet paper is used for defecation, but they never greet people or even pick up things with their left hands. As for most people who wipe their bottoms by hand, there are many poor families in India, and they don't want to spend enough money on daily necessities, so they can save.

India is also divided into bourgeoisie, and not all wealthy families eat with their hands.

There is also a gap between the rich and the poor in Indian countries, especially among businessmen and working families. The same is to marry several wives, but the gap between the rich and the poor is obvious. In the eyes of working-class Indians, tableware is unnecessary except plates and pots, knives, forks and spoons. They all grab food with their right hands. Therefore, in Indian shopping malls, knives and forks are rarely used. Only wealthy families can use knives and forks, and even ordinary restaurants are not equipped with them. Therefore, in India's diet menu, there are all sticky dishes, such as mashed potatoes and curry rice with juice, which is convenient to eat by hand.
