Bolt mine: No I wouldn't do so. Therefore I was asking for the exact meaning of bland in one of the above posts. I guess even though there food is spicy, they won't be able to have lot's of variations and refinements.

I agree access was the main thing. I just wanted to point out that of course the income of a family also limits what is available for them.
