Color

"The colors mattered too. In fact, as I grew older the color of the food mattered to me as much as the taste. I disliked vegetables that were cooked into a grey- green mash. I liked shining green bhindi, sparkling yellow masoor dal, burnished copper pumpkin, sliced red watermelon, diced orange papayas, unsliced red apples, leaf green guavas, snow white curd."
- Tarun Tejpal, the Alchemy of desire
Read in a book about called 'India- A Sense of Place' while eating my morning plate of fruits.
