He was exaggerating about the scarcity, I've travelled Japan with vegetarian friends and they could fine suitable food (and quite nice food when we were in the mountains around Buddhist temples). In any case you're getting into a nitpick about the general idea which is that a meat loving boozehound is going to feel really out of place in India when compared to, say, Japan, Australia, North America, Europe, etc. . . .
As one of those I wouldn't move to India and expect to have my cravings for steak and a nice Bordeaux satisfied with any regularity. Just as I wouldn't move to Japan as a veggo and expect to have my cravings for super awesome tempeh dishes satisfied. And I certainly wouldn't complain about it like that.

Fwiw, some Indians bitch and moan about American food habits when they move to the USA so I am sure the habit is fairly universal !
- weeksie 17y agoI agree completely. People will find things to complain about nearly everywhere. Frankly, if I had an opportunity to spend more time in India I wouldn't complain one bit because I really enjoy the country and I could be quite happy going without my usual fair.
