Compare And Contrast Indian Culture Vs American Culture

Indian vs American Indian and American cultures have been a big part of me and my life. The Indian culture and American cultures are similar and different. The Indian culture is a more strict, spicy cuisine, and an easier education system. On the other hand, the American culture is more laid back, has mixed cuisine, and has a tough education system. Competition is extreme in Indian society. From past experience, American parents are more encouraging than Indian parents. If an Indian child does not win a competition, they will get a never ending speech. If an American child loses a competition, they will get an, “ Aww man! Get em’ next time.” I remember at a math science meet , my American friend got a negative 20 on a number sense test.
When the meet was over, she sent a picture of her at Diddy’s with her parents.

Another major difference is the cuisine and food. Indian food is filled with flavors and spices. American food is a blend of cultures.The Indian cuisine is full of bright jewels and colors. The American cuisine is a cultural blend. One time in reading class we were reading an article about tacos . In the article it talked about how nothing is pure American. The hamburger is a german delicacy, the hotdog is dutch, and the pizza is Italian. Can you think of one purely American food?

The last major difference are the education systems. According to my parents, Indian school was a fun experience. They had the occasional test every once in awhile, but they never had to study until 12th grade. According to my sister, American school is hard and tough. She is constantly studying, and never has time to spare. Every day I hear about the hard test from english, or the dumb essay from science.

Indian and American cultures have made an impact in my life. Although they seem very different, I love the both .
