(rice + milk) together

Di Indonesia, kita disarankan untuk mengkonsumsi 4 sehat 5 sempurna, dimana nasi dan susu adalah komponen utamanya. Jelas nutrisi kedua bahan tersebut terbukti nyata. Namun, baru-baru ini saya menemukan hal unik berkaitan dengan konsumsi nasi dan susu. Kalau makan nasi dan minum susu adalah hal biasa, bagaimana jika makan nasi didalam susu bersamaan?

Salah satu housemate saya, asal Bangladesh, bercerita kalau dia biasa makan nasi dan susu (together). Bisa bayangkan cereal? Nah, coba bayangkan tit-bits cereal nya diganti nasi. Dia bilang, itu makanan umum di negara asalnya. Umumnya makanan bayi dan anak-anak. Tapi beberapa orang, termasuk dia dan keluarga menikmati nasi dan susu hingga dewasa. He was saying that "But now I eat it as dessert, not for main course," So I replied, "Wow, you have a heavy dessert than, rice for main and another rice for dessert." Yah pokoknya dia bilang itu enak, and he encourage me to have a try sometime.....

By the way, this conversation arose because that time, I was having my lunch at home and he suddenly came, put yogurt on top of the rice. And I commented, "Hey you eat yogurt with rice.." and so the conversation followed.

Interesting fact. Feel free to try on your own. ;)
