Want to twist your tastebuds?
Fried Grasshoppers are common in Uganda. You may not see it in a typical restaurant but you can definitely buy them on the street! Grasshoppers in Uganda = Hotdogs in America. They are a good source of protein and may or may not taste like chicken. Also, Uganda is supposed to have the most amazing pineapple you've ever eaten. Eat up!
Uganda is a tree-loving nation.
In fact, there is a rule that if you cut one tree, you must plant three more. I think we should have this rule in America!
Uganda is known as the "Pearl of Africa" because of its beauty:). This name originally came from Sur Winston Churchill when visiting the country under British rule.
So, let's eat up, maybe plant some trees and explore the Pearl of Africa

I think one of the most interesting thing about traveling to different countries is learning about the attitudes toward the environment, since it seems to differ greatly from place to place. I definitely think the U.S, in general, does not have the same enthusiasm for environmental protection/conservation as other countries, especially those with an abundance of unique flora and fauna. I have a feeling that the environmental attitudes in Uganda are going to be very different than those we observe in the U.S. A more interesting question is why this is.
ReplyDeleteThe pineapples just so tasteful they literally spoil one's appreciation for pineapples back home. Another popular fruit is the jack fruit. The videos below will get you familiar with it.

I am so excited to try all of the amazing fruits that they sell on the side of the roads. I know that sounds kind of weird but the most fresh food are ones that have been picked in the morning. Pineapple is one of my most favorite things to eat and I know it is so incredibly juicy and I cannot wait to try it!!
