Inspired by a friend's posted album on sugarmaking, I suddenly found myself munching on sugarcane after I mentioned it to my mom. It's been ages since my gums and teeth have been exercised this much :-)

  1. Sugarcane juice is so refreshing. Red or green (sugarcane)?

  2. green lang ang available when our helper went out to buy some sugarcane stalks...sayang, walang red..

    anyway, maybe tomorrow meron, so I can have my sugarcane sticks and chew on them while doing work...
    I hope they will plant some sugarcane again by our fence...

  4. by any chance, is sugarcane planted there in Japan?

    my fond memories of my maternal grandma's house included munching on sugarcane, coz she had a bunch planted in her front garden :-)

  6. hmm...actually a sugarcane field would make me think of horror movies in some ways...all those tall long leaves..which are quite itchy sometimes...

    sugarcane juice is available here, (probably there it could be in cans) but there's something satisfying after munching and sucking all the juice out from sugarcane sticks...

  7. This is our favorite "refreshments" in my childhood days! Did you know that sugar cane can grow in your backyard? Meron kami nito sa likod bahay (as most houses in our neighborhood then).

    if maka visit kami sa bahay nyo. e pwede mo ba kaming i-serve ng ganon? I really miss it (ubos na ang binili namin)...and corn on the cob..yumm...

  10. Of course, Cat. I just hope my old neighborhood in Naga City is still intact. I was referring to our old house in Cams. Sur where I spent my childhood days (Kite Runner days).
