Prabhupāda: And then they mix with mustard oil and this, what is called, eggplant. Eggplant roasted in the fire and put with little mustard oil, salt and chilis, it becomes very tasteful. So puffed rice and that, they take in Bengal. That is tiffin, for breakfast.

Prabhupāda: Drinking is prohibited. Ātreya Ṛṣi: No, absolutely not. The modern Muslims drink.
Prabhupāda: Therefore I say drinking is prohibited. Ātreya Ṛṣi: Prohibited. Yes. It is not permitted; prohibited.
Prabhupāda: Yes, I say prohibited. Ātreya Ṛṣi: Muslim religion, it seems to me, is closer to Vedic culture than Christian. [break]
Prabhupāda: ...given to the modern scientist one proposal, egg proposal. You explain. Hari-śauri: That if the scientist are so expert and they should be able to back up their claim of life coming from chemicals, then why can't they produce an egg which will give life? They can take some chemicals and make the white, and take some little coloring to make it yellow inside, and wrap it up in some modern synthetic casing, and then put it in an incubator and let it produce life. Prabhupāda: What is the difficulty? These rascals, it is proposed that life comes from chemicals.
