“Do You Remember When”

We were children, everyday we were given an orange, grapefruit and or fig—banana, as our fruit intake~ But we ate many other fruits— mango, cherry, balata, sugar apple, sugar cane, governor plum, hog plum, guava, papaw, grou grou beff, pommecythere, cocorete, five fingers, barbadine, soursop, chinee tambran, pineapple, tamarind, corn, fat pork, watermelon, chennette, coconut pommerac… Do you remember also added to our fruit intake was Cod Liver Oil, Malt and Molasses… Our intake of vitamins A, B, C, D, E, Potassium etc was always an overdose~ Did we get the cold flu~ We hardly ever did, but if we did some kind of bush medicine was the medicine of the day. Do you remember…
