FOOD….
What does food do
to you?
Other than the
normal things, like sustain life, make you stronger…you know the normal cliché?
For me, I LOVE
HATE food and this is the reason why.
LOVE
Just like everyone
else around the world, food makes you stronger, healthier, gives you the energy
and the list goes on.
It also makes me
happy. When I’m stressed and really upset, I usually bake. Well most of you may
think that I bake like comforting cake and all…actually NO! I bake and then
give it out to my friends. No charges. No costs. No nothing. FOR FREE. Most of
them get super excited coz of this and bug me time and time again to bake for
them. Others go to the extent of pissing me off...just to get cake…bizarre but
it’s true...many can testify to it…no idea why but chocolate cake is what I relieve
my stress on…NOT EATING THOUGH…
I love CHOCOLATES…which
gal doesn’t? But I love mine with nuts, caramel or a biscuit in it…now there...you
got a loco gal with a huge sweet tooth.
I gatta keep the
doc away, so fruits are now my friends…I’m a sucker for citrus fruits, berries
and my FAV APPLES…
I’m a JUNKIE…I
usually have the most random cravings that most of the time people think I’m
247 pregnant…like the other day, I had my crave evolve from a strawberry slushy
to caramelized popcorn to tacos to
passion white forest cake to potato salad. Who moves from such cravings? But
the most amazing thing about cravings is that when you satisfy them, they tend
to subdue…men out there, I do feel bad on your behalf when your wife or
girlfriend is expectant and you have to dash out in the middle of the night to
get whatever she wants…I surely do sympathize with y’all and at the same time
feel pity for my future hubby… J
hey but love does work everything out right?
Fav soft drink
would def be MOUNTAIN DEW…This is….I
actually can’t explain it…from the packaging to the tingly feeling I get on my
tongue when I take the first sip of a really chilled mountain dew…AAAA… I once
tried mixing it with something else…and the response I got on my taste buds
were “don’t be stupid! You can never do that and never try that again”. Another
fav fluid of mine would def be H2O. PERIOD.
How can I forget fresh passion, orange, mango juice… #bliss
My favorite part
about food is ITS DIVERSITY ALL AROUND THE GLOBE…as in each state or country has
its own special recipe that may be similar to the people next door but is
totally different.
HATE
I’m just like
those lil kids we see who don’t like veggies. I do love certain veggies but
there are others that are just….same applies to some meat products. Despite been
healthy and all, YUCK. I think it boils down to how it’s made and presented.
I hate BAD TASTING
FOOD that is COLD, DRY AND HARD…especially fried
foods.
The one thing I hate
about food…all around the world, we have people who dispose food carelessly,
leave food to spoil, act like gluttons and serve too much yet there are people
out there somewhere who have nothing. Children suckling
on their mothers dried up boobs not knowing that their mother is dead. People
fighting each other just to get a share of food before it run out. It’s really
painful and saddening when you see the less fortunate ravaging through trash
cans just to get something to sustain them…
Food is meant to bring people together…
people share meals as a bond… food is a bond… so let us come together and help
the less fortunate… instead of overflowing your plate with food that you can’t
finish, take the right amount for that one sitting and if it isn’t enough, go
for second helpings. (And anyhu don’t people have etiquette manners?) When you
go for shopping, buy dry products and place them in charity cartons if not put money
in the charity tins. As for street urchins, instead of leaving them hungry and
out in the cold, at least spare a cent and buy for them a sandwich if not cup
of tea or loaf of bread.
LET’S
MAKE A CHANGE!
