Answer 1

Answer:

Goa was under the rule of the Portuguese for a long time even after the

remaining parts of today’s India were free from the British Colonial rule . So, their eating habits and clothing habits remain unchanged what was followed by Portuguese. Due to Portuguese rule over the state Goa for a long period, while complete India got freedom; this state has totally different culture, food and eating habits than Maharashtra.
