I ALMOST GAVE UP ON HEALTHY EATING

Hi, I was thinking of starting a platform that will at least address the starvation crisis. Then I gave up. I mean come on, huge industries are expanding in the ready made food section. Still wondering what I'm writing? Well this blog was formed to provide summaries of how to prepare meals but I think I've had an epiphany, thank goodness it's about conflict just like Rango's epiphany.  I have realized that there are millions of short recipes all over the internet and so i thought I'm only trying to reinvent the wheel that was invented instead of modifying it or using it on something thats a niche. Okay my niche is that I plan to change the name of this blog to 'stop starvation' something, hey any suggestions?  I don't want to join everyone in providing info that is so much to the consumer. I have a dream and my dream is not for blacks but it mostly involves blacks. I want to contribute to reducing starvation by coming up with a platform to achieve

MY TAKE ON OBESITY BASED ON HEALTHY EATING

Obesity, you will agree in developed communities it's disaster (for lack of a more precise definition) whereas starvation is the disaster in developing communities. What is wrong with this picture? My two cents will not make the difference but if we understand it at least that will be the starting point. Basically my theory is that we cannot change the world as we are headed to the apocalypse. From a religious standpoint the worst is yet to come. Due to my ignorance i'm not sure if food related disasters are mentioned anywhere in religious texts. Anyone? Having established that the worst is yet to come the best we can do is at least touch souls. This is the most important thing way more than hand outs. I'm so against hand outs. A scenario like giving a beggar a coin and walking away to me is not how to be a good Samaritan. A story is told by the controversial Jesus Christ. It was a parable of the good Samaritan. What will you do if you were faced with such a situation

THE SECRET TO A HEALTHY LIFE #2

They say or rather I have heard the saying what doesn't kill you makes you stronger way too many times that I'm actually starting to believe it's true. Achieving a healthy life is too and there are secrets to how to spot that body that is perfect. Yes I know nobody is perfect but there are those who are close to perfection than others. The only secret to a healthy lifestyle is follow the rules . Yes we all know rules are not as fun as say freedom and that is why many people actually fail miserably at achieving certain goals that seem so easily done by others. Take me for example, I have failed in many business ventures, it took me four years to realize that hey i didn't  follow the rules of  entrepreneurship . I sometimes find it funny that millions of how to become wealthy books exist for free and yet there those who succeed actually never read these books page by page. I will become the next George Lucas actually a combination of Jerry Buckerheimer, Steven Spielbe

DELICIOUS FRIED SPIDERS

I will say it again. Frying is the best mode of cooking stuff that's not normal delicacy. Normal human beings eat insects and other small cousins of ours but we don't eat bugs. I can swear (not in religious context) ... for others bugs are as normal as French fries (crunchy and oily) just yummy. Now forget Joe's Apartment   There is another vintage silent film on cockroaches. I saw it about two decades ago and it still lingers in my mind (they invaded the whole city and killed everyone).  I find bugs to be funny in a social sense as in how they go about their daily life from an observer's point of view. But from a natures point of view they are predictors and can extinct our race if they decided to. Good thing some guys in Vietnam already know how nutritious they are ... but not all bugs just the arachnid family mostly at least. Spiders in particular are actually nearly being considered a staple food there. I guess there is some benefit to eating bugs like say

HOW TO FRY A DELICIOUS SNAIL

If you are like me then ... sorry there is no one like me. But my point is: I find disgusting stuff delicious, I mean food wise just get those irrelevant mental images out of your head right now. Thank you. Moving on ... I happen to find Kenyan snails more eatable and clean in short delicious not that I eat them .. (hey don't shy away from offering a kiss). It's very rare to see Kenyan snails with shells otherwise they would not be as appealing to me. A typical Kenyan will not eat a snail even if their life depended on it but if money was involved then snails will definitely become extinct. Offense intended ...  For those of us who eat our slimy yakish  friends then all you need is a bunch of them, probably enough to satisfy your appetite. First clean thoroughly with a food disinfectant (any disinfectant that is not harmful to your health) After this make sure they are dead by hitting them or just crushing. You can expose their insides and get rid of them or just ignor

THE SECRET TO A HEALTHY LIFE

Okay the truth: our society is becoming obese and we are enriching the medical community by being regular patients of nutrition related symptoms simply because we don't eat like our forefathers. Yes i said it and you may say it's stone-age or is it Stonehenge but those guys pretty much die in their 90s or over, and us who mock them die before 50 years old. Anyone above 50 years actually is a healthy and conscious eater. Some people ... take offense if you like but some guys look 40s when they are barely 20s. PLEASE EAT THOSE TRADITIONAL FOODS AND NOT PROCESSED 'NUTRITIONAL FOODS' I MEAN FRESH FARM PRODUCE. milk a goat if you have to, let a hen and a cork wander in your back yard and collect some eggs later. There is an true (maybe the only true rumor) that the healthy President Moi actually eats pretty much only traditional stuff thats why he's still young. By the way we share a birthday with that famous president... connect the dots and don't hate me for it

TRADITIONAL LUHYA SPICE

I actually don't know what it's called in English but it's like vinegar/soda bicarbonate, that you add to traditional greens like omurenda , livubi , the famous terere , just ask anyone in Kenya they know them. Now to my point, all you need is a clear container, water, ash and a sieve. The ash must be fine just from firewood but some people still make it with charcoal ash. Anyhow it's your choice, so after mixing, remember not too much water, 500ml is okay with little wood ash. after mixing let it settle for some days, the ash will sink and the water looking like alcohol or cooking oil will be on top. Then sieve into another container and store the ash for recycling another day. The liquid you have sieved can be used the same way soda bicarbonate is used in boiling some traditional green veggies, some white folks eat blackjack leaves (with the way climate change is going so will we start eating weeds as they are more climate resistant than food stuff) and you can boil
