Look, see here....

My mom is from Thailand and very passionate about food. Whenever I talk to her on the phone she will always ask me about food.
"What did you cook today? What did you eat?"
"Soup."

"Soup in the can? Yuck!"

"No, I cooked Thai soup."

"Yeah right."

My mom thinks I'm too farang to know how to cook Thai. Au contraire, here is a visual.
