Grub

The staple food is ugali which is some sort of maize flour paste and looks like homemade play-dough. Doesn't taste of anything but doesn't hang around either. At lunch we get with it some green leaf vegetable chopped up fine.
Dinner maybe beans and maize or plantains and carrots boiled up fine . Often some rice is prepared as well.
Fruit forms no part of the diet. Fish has been served a couple of times, and recently some parts of chopped up animal have been included in the pot.
Conventionally we would use our fingers to eat, but enough uncouth volunteers have visited that using a spoon is not frowned upon.Leggi altro
