You can sprinkle on anything to give it flavor. Sprinkle in salads, fruits, buttermilk, soda(lemon), watermelon, pocorn, Sprouts, savory pancakes, sandwiches. Guacomole, Salsa(Personal favorite)
Being an Indian, I would say, don't cook with it(I don't know why but that's how I have seen it).

Urban Outfitters sometimes carries Indian style mattresses too. Also, probably a furton mattress might work.

From my experience, Jal Neti works - it cleans the nasal passage and helps in allergies too.

I have been raised eggiterian(vegeterian plus eggs). I tried to eat meat couple of times but could not because I would always start imagining an animal being killed and then could never eat it.
Personally I know I can't eat any form of meat but I am not against eating them. My personal take is whatever you eat eat as fresh as possible be it meat or vegetables because then only you get the benefits out of it. Both these things are/were some form of life and have energy or "Prana" in them.
There are arguments for and against everything.

Its a common thing in India - at least north and central parts. I have grown up seeing this always.
Since I have moved to US - I always wonder why something like this not available in US.

Is it fruit or vegetable ?
It looks similar to something that we in India call as "Tinda" or "Indian Round Gourd".

This is great!
I also use it often for keeping peels while cutting/chopping vegetables.
