The idiotic cooking of fruit: the saba banana follies
Humans were designed by nature to eat raw food. The original natured prescribed diet for humans is a raw paleolithic diet: raw fruits, raw animal foods, some raw vegetables. See the list? Raw fruit was the first food prescribed to humans. So what does that make people who cook their fruit? Dummies.
Cooking fruit has got to be the end of the line for human beings. Already in this generation, humans have gotten used to the idea of cooking all their animal food and are ignorantly cursing and calling names those who eat raw animal foods. Yes really, people are so beholden to cooking animal foods for themselves, they think cooking animal foods should be done the same to feed their own pet cats and dogs.
Now comes the cooking of fruit. I would like to pick a bone with the cooking of bananas. How much more idiotic can people get? But this is a multi-generational idiocy that happens. You see people are basically creatures of repetition and imitation. Most humans are just smart enough to imitate, not smart enough to analyze, not smart enough to question things, not smart enough to be aware. So a child sees his grown up buy banana que — saba bananas fried in oil and coated with what looks like brown sugar turned into a caramel crisp. Then there is the saba banana boiled in water — nilaga they call it, and they sell it in the streets and they serve it at home. In fact, most urban Filipinos think that the PROPER way to eat saba bananas is to COOK THEM!!! The normal diseased humans will marvel in awe at why anyone, say my children will eat RAW SABA BANANAS and like it.
See? That is the difference between the diseased and the healthy. The normally diseased have got habits and common sense ideas that are unnatural. Remember, you cannot cheat nature. It is the nature of things when one does not follow nature, one becomes diseased. Cooking fruit has got to be the end of the line, the end of the rope for human beings. Turning the fruit into a useless piece of junk food. If you want to know what’s wrong with you being sick… you may be doing something wrong… like cooking food you are not supposed to cook. You are not supposed to cook fruit. You are supposed to eat fruit RAW.
