Guava is the local fruit and is currently in season. People cut it into pieces and sprinkle it with salt before eating. I love it.
To deal with uncommonly cold weather, women wear socks with their flip flops. I originally found the practice appalling, but have recently found myself doing it (in informal settings, of course.)
People will gladly exclude sugar from your masala chai if you ask nicely.
The average number of light switches next to an Indian door is six. The average number of light bulbs in an Indian room is one. This makes for a lot of unnecessary switch-flipping.
Leftover food, even bread, is generally not consumed. It is used as a religious offering to the cows that freely roam the streets.
