Had this Indian tamarind soup the other week that was so astringent I could barely eat it

In fairness it did say it was really astringent on the menu, and I did ask for it to be made extra astringent, and the waiter came out to tell me the soup was going to be very astringent, and I was wearing a T-shirt that said “I Love Astringent Foods”, and I was known to the waiter as the head of the Nottingham branch of the Astringent Food Fanclub but still.
