Let's imagine we live in a new world where every human can only have one particular food, fruit, and drink for the rest of their lives. What would your choice be? Tell us about the food, fruit, and drink you can have every day without getti
I don't pray for such world where one can choose one particular food, drink or fruit for his/her rest of life. Imagine that i found myself in such a new world where i have the privilege to choose just one of the above mentioned, i will chose African bread fruit. Ukwa or African breadfruit is a meal common to eastern Nigerians (The igbos), it is known as Afon to the yorubas and Ediang to the Efiks. Breadfruit grows in a tree and at its due time it falls on its own. It's preparations is not always easy but once done, it tastes great.Ukwa doesn't require enough ingredients, personally, i like cooking it with only salt and water. I enjoy drinking the juicy water after cooking it. Others do prepare it as porridge, but i don't. You can also fry Ukwa and enjoy it with coconut or palm kernel. Do you know that African breadfruit contains almost all the nutrients that our body needs which includes protein, carbohydrates, minerals like magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, calcium, sodium, copper, and vitamins. Because of all these health benefits, i will choose to eat ukwa for the rest of my life. Besides since i have been eating it, i don't get tired of it.
Fruit- When it comes for fruit, i will chose African butter pear or Ube as we normally called it. Ube is good for the skin and also serves as immune boosters. It's one of my best fruits and if i am to chose one particular fruit i will go for it because, it is easy to melt. You can chew it when you are hungry, it can easily melt in your mouth and after consuming enough of it, i take water and gets satisfied. So to me, it serves as food
This African butter pear is very tasty or delicious when eating with fresh corns or even dry ones. Some do eat it with Abacha or Tapioca. Some went as far as sipping it with garry. I personally enjoy it corns. Now is it's season and am eating it almost every day without getting tired of it. The one in my picture is the remnant in my house.
Drink- Water is my number one drink. Water gives energy, it sustain's life, helps in food digestion and total body well-being. I can remember when i took water for a whole day without food. It sustained me. That means, their is no life without water.
***I just mentioned the three things i will choose if i should find myself in such a world. To enjoy such world, youneed to choose your best food, drink and fruit.
