Ampalaya
Ampalaya, also called the Bitter Melon, was one of the vegetables that I don’t want to eat because of its bitter taste. When I was a kid, my mom forced me to eat ampalaya but I just vomited it. My relatives said that ampalaya is for prevention of diabetes. Ampalaya is rich in iron, potassium, beta-carotene and other nutrients. Well, even though they told that to me, I still don’t eat ampalaya. I think that it is very gross that everytime we have ampalaya as our vaint, I don’t eat or I have my own. Until one day, when we were staying at my grandmother’s house, we are forced to eat ampalaya so, I have no choice. My mom said to soak the ampalaya with water and salt so it will not be that bitter. Since then I’ve been eating ampalaya and I really liked it. I told my brother about it and he doesn’t believe me, so I told him the advantages of eating amplaya. Little by little, he learned how to eat the ampalaya already. There are many advantages of ampalaya to our health. That’s why it is one of the things that are important to me.
