Of Local vegies I like Kangkong. I call it "Swamp weeds". I taught Elena to just heat some oil with garlic and quickly wilt, or sautee it. Squash I enjoy too. Johnray,

There are Green Markets in some parts of America where you can get local grown vegies. But yes here they are fresh at the Palengke and nicer than in the Market. The only problem is the best are exported and we get the seconds. Luis,

The sweet potato here, Camote is gritty unless well mashed. I will tell more in next article about vegies. I do eat rice, but not the quanity as Philippinos. Sometimes Elena makes me mashed potatoes or pasta. We eat mostly fish, pork and chicken since the beef here is tough unless you pressure cook it. I will look for the video on Youtube.

Since I was a kid my father always teaches us to eat vegetables. Now that I am old it seems that I cannot go about without vegetables in my diet. My favorite vegetables are malungay and squash..I really like them.. Bruce,

Soon, you'll find out many other veges not known to you are consumed by South East Asian people. They are all healthy, of course. I guess by now, rice has becoming your daily diet instead of bread and red meat like what you used to have in America. :) I just watched Davao city on youtube. Well, I can understand what kind of culture shock you had gone through. Take care bro. Hi Bruce,
