9233 A Taste of Home

For those missing “Fish & Chips” they are available at various restaurants here in Cebu namely, Rodeo in SM City Mall and Dong Juan, Gaisano Mall, Tabunok. The Fish and Chips are not identical to UK Fish and Chips but close enough.

Shakey's in SM City had the best Calamari I've come across here so far. Most I have tried have been rather good. :-) :-)

Unlike the Middle-East there is plenty bacon here so no issues for bacon eaters.There is less beef sold here than bacon and it is more expensive and requires more searching to find. However there is usually American, Australian and New Zealand beef in S&R http://www.snrshopping.com/location.html

American, Australian and New Zealand beef are likely to contain growth hormones. Growth hormones are not good for health see http://willim1.com/20_milk_01.html

"What Is Vitamin B1?

Beriberi, a debilitating, often fatal ailment, wasn't a serious health problem among the rice-eating peoples of Asia until the end of the 19th century. But then mills began to polish rice -- a process that removes the outer brown layers of the grain, leaving behind smooth, white kernels. Rice stripped of this outer layer of bran has lost much of its thiamin.

Soon after the practice of refining began, the incidence of beriberi rose to epidemic levels in Asia. A similar situation occurred in countries where wheat was a dietary staple when refined white flour began to replace whole-wheat flour. . . . "

If you can afford the Internet ... you can afford brown rice for the sake of your health and your children's.

Eat enough and the price may eventually be less than white rice :-) :-) - Willim
