The everyday cuisine of Uganda as a multicultural society has been influenced by its small but historically significant and socio-politically controversial Indian minority. Recently, one of the foods under Indian influence, Rolex, has been popularly promoted as a national dish and object of national presentation. Therefore, the objective of the thesis is to analyse the harmony or disharmony between the inclusivity of two kinds of identity, one being the cultural identity represented by typical Ugandan food, and the second one being the socio-political self-perception based on the dichotomy us vs others, with others represented by Ugandan Indian community. Concerning cultural identity, the thesis focuses on the phenomenon of typical Ugandan food with a special focus on Rolex. The thesis reaches a conclusion that both socio-political and cultural identity represented by Ugandan food are divided into two main categories, the primary (ethnic) identity and the secondary (national) identity. Concerning the socio-political dimension, while secondary identity is rather inclusive and pragmatic, the primary identity proves to be rather exclusive and requires strict conditions for inclusion. Similarly, Ugandan food in the rather emotionally detached secondary category seems to be more inclusive in its materiality with respect to the cultural diversity within the country. However, the explicit connection between Ugandan and Indian food as Ugandan-Indian merge is rare. Similarly, as with socio-political identity, a line is put between their and our version of the same food. The identity attached to ethnic food is exclusive due to its specific benefits and both cultural and personal meaning. The common means of inclusion within the primary socio-political dimension is intermarriage which is expected to bring rapprochement of the Ugandan and Indian cultures as well.
