The humble kamote

It is very common to hear when someone is ridiculed, '' Go home and plant kamote'' As i recall the first time I heard it when I was still in grade school. And everyone laughed and teased my classmate saying out loud " kamote ka pala'' Why is the kamote, a plant associated when someone is mocked?

Don't you know that in rural areas, the kamote is one of the staple foods? One reason is that it is easy to cultivate and is much cheaper than rice. The tubers can be boiled and eaten dipped in sugar, and one popular street snack is the Kamote cue.Tubers are cut and fried with caramelized sugar then skewered. Not only are the tubers  utilized as food, young leaves and shoots are also  used in salads and can be added to meat/fish dishes, or sometimes eaten alone with a Bagoong dip.
     
                                               


                                        Boiled and dipped in bagoong
                                             Added to Fish dishes
                                            As a snack , Kamote cue
The kamote is very tasty and a versatile plant, so aren't you proud to be called a '' kamote'' ?

  8. Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The words in your content seem to be running off the screen in Opera.
    I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I'd
    post to let you know. The design look great though!

    Hope you get the problem fixed soon. Many thanks

    blogging platform out there right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you're using on your blog?

  22. First of all I would like to say great blog! I had a quick question which I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
    I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your
    thoughts before writing. I've had difficulty clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips? Kudos!

  26. Can I simply just say what a relief to uncover someone that
    actually knows what they are discussing online.
    You definitely realize how to bring a problem to light and make it important.
    More people need to check this out and understand this side of your story.

    It's surprising you're not more popular because you most certainly have the gift.

  27. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but
    I find this matter to be really something which I
    think I would never understand. It seems too complex
    and extremely broad for me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I'll
    try to get the hang of it!
