Liberians do not consider it a meal unless they have had rice. They eat white rice from China.Meals are "soup" or we would call it a sauce of greens ( sweet potato, cassava), palm oil, cabbage over rice. Occasionally it may include chicken pieces, or whole pieces of fish with the head, tail, etc.Liberians eat one meal a day.Pineapples and butter pears (avacado) are in season.With no refrigeration, no dairy products.
Fasting as prayer and solidarity with the poor. Feasting as sacrament and celebration in community.
