NOODLE PROPAGANDA:
Washington news August-26th: Orissa Post front
page news was like washing people’s hunger through noodle slurp. Where are our
nutrition experts of India? Our age old Indian staple food -pressed rice
(CHUDA) with molasses (Guda) or dahi is more than a complete food for the
hungry world population. Prof Gewertz’s opinion may not be applicable to the
under developed or developing countries including India ,where more than 70%
stay in villages and use firewood for cooking. Some one thought that there is
some hidden agenda behind this ‘noodle news’. With one rupee rice, converting
it to Chuda would be no problem for the government to supply hence we suggest
CHUDA with GUDA (molasses) would be the best to remove hunger from the world.
That would be more than a complete food if Milk or Yogurt (dahi)or
plantain(kela) can be added to it. Another very high calories food is
‘Mysorepak’ can be used for malnourished children, even one can take it to moon
no problem, seldom gets spoiled. Let’s us be more practical and follow our age
old ethnic diet rather than feeding our children with these white refined
noodle which is only starch.
