FINGER ON THE PULSES
COLOMBIA | Thursday, 12 January 2006 | Views [8636]
O.K. A few of my vegetarian friends have been logging on so as promised here are a few pin-ups to set your mouths watering. They will need to since all these are dried pulses, displayed to great effect in large barrels in most of the stores and part of an the impressive range of staples that Colombia can boast. It's strange considering the range of these little dried chaps that I haven't seen a peashooter since I've been here. Hmmmmmm. Maybe that's a gap in the market right there, or maybe a channel for all the inherent violence in the culture. We'll have to look into this.
Meanwhile to keep this post at least as interesting as your average vegetarian meal, here we see: Alverjas, Frijoles, Guandul and Zaragosas. Guess which is which and win, errr, well.....A peashooter.
Fruit coming soon.
