There are people today who think that admitting God’s absolute greatness decreases the value and importance of humans in the creation, as if God and mankind are rivals competing in greatness and power. Meanwhile I feel that whenever our perception of God’s greatness increases, with it we become greater, because we are the creation of a great God.

I have to disagree. Afghan cuisine is very different to Iranian and Indian/Pakistani, although many of its dishes are almost a mixture of both Indian and Persian cuisine, but this makes sense due to its geographic location.
Go to an authentic Persian restaurant, then a Pakistani one, and for your last stop visit an Afghan one; you will certainly notice differences in taste and cuisine!
You are incorrect to assume that most Afghan cuisine is solely a Tajik production. For example, the chapli kebab literally means 'flat kebab' in pashto. It is in fact a Pashtun dish, and not a Pakistani or Tajiki, or Persian or what have you! The peerakai (bolani) is also a Pashtun dish, etc.True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us. - Socrates
