They arrived with hashtags, overstayed their welcome, and disappeared before anyone could pronounce them correctly. But as 2026 approaches, what people are eating—and how they’re eating it—feels oddly serious. Less about novelty. More about negotiation. Negotiation between inflation and indulgence.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 25: For years, Indian real estate conversations followed a predictable script. Budget first. Location second. Compromises everywhere else. If the price was right, everything else—traffic, water supply, commute, air, silence—became negotiable. That script is now being quietly shredded.
