When is a cow not an animal?

Do you think you know what a cow is? In Grenada it is not what you think it is! A cow is a fruit and staple of Grenadian’s diet.

Cow Fruit

My favourite Canadian foods are pizza, bacon, poutine, cheese and water melon. For breakfast I am used to having cereal or sometimes eggs. Lunch is a bagel, crackers, cheese and fresh fruit. Dinner is pasta, Sheppard’s pie, or meat and potatoes. I don’t think this will be what I eat in Grenada. I think I’ll have to eat more stuff I don’t like. 

Jamoon

 

I think I will eat eggs, this because eggs are not expensive ($1.40 for 16 eggs). Fruits and vegetables but not the ones we are used to like jamoon, kusu and noni! There won’t be any meat or not a lot. My dad is going to try to catch us dinner which would be fish. There are many different types of fish.  I am a bit worried about what I am going to eat because I can be a picky eater. I am hoping there will be lots of rice and pasta but I don’t know if there will be.

Noni

I know that food will be very expensive unless we buy it at a farmers market. There is an IGA but the prices are between 2-4 times higher than in Canada. So a box of cereal would be $16!! No more cereal for breakfast.

Kusu

I think I will come back thinner!
