Try
kurumba. A local, continental beverage, available island wide. Kurumba is the
immature version of the pol (coconut).
If
you do not think of growing coconut, you cannot consume kurumba and we cannot
cook ala (potato) curry or pol sambol. (Mixture of finely grated coconut, salt
to taste, about half a tea spoon of lime, one or two curry leaves, finely chopped
garlic)
Whether
you drink kurumba or eat green gram with grated coconut depends on ‘availability
of coconut’ in the market. To the market my dear colleagues, friends, coconuts
do not arrive from moon or from space. You have to grow coconut or at least you
must refrain from cutting down coconut trees, if you have any further plans to
consume coconut in the future.
Friend,
you can reach moon without any passports. How? All what you have to do is ‘read
the price lists of coconut at local markets (super or super, super). If anyone
at any counter asks you ‘your reason to visit this island, say it is not cookies
this time, it is locally grown kurumba.
If
you are ready to pay Rs. 60/= you can consume kurumba with no difficulty, of
course if you know the technique of consuming / drinking kurumba without a
straw, protecting cleanliness of your ‘master suit’.
Friends,
do not worry at all, if you have no interests towards consuming kurumba. These what
I am saying here applicable to those who love kurumba and do not hate coconut.
And
in this what century (?) 25th Century (?) we live, you will have to
find a man who has the ability to climb a coconut tree in order to pluck
coconut. If you know no man with the ability mentioned above, you can stop
growing coconut and start seeking alternatives. Kurumba is kurumba and thambili
is thambili (king coconut) I do not know what policy the government must introduce,
if you know no man thinking of growing coconut or know how to pluck coconut
without really climbing it (the tree dear friends).
Do
not try to analyze the meaning of the word, king coconut (one of the favorite beverages
of many in the country and across globe) It is not something that kings
permitted to drink and others are prohibited. No bar, you can select the type you like to
consume. Choice is yours, whether to drink kurumba forgetting king coconut or
drinking king coconut forgetting kurumba.
By
the way, do not try to buy kurumba from the nearest liquor shop.
And
dear friends, if our people decided to stop growing coconut and start
cultivating more brinjalls instead, remember, there will be no curries serving
cooked with coconut oil, kokis & Kewum (sweet meats) fried in deep oil.
By
the way stop insulting the mothers of others, even if they know no cooking
using coconut/ coconut oil. Following are some of the users of consuming kurumba
While
gossiping with your never changing friends try sip kurumba. It will definitely boost
or enhance your abilities of gossiping in any future to come.
Kurumba
can be used or introduced as an alternative for teens who shows interests
towards liquor and cigar, when partying.
Expect
more talks about coconut in the near future from the speeches of all chair members,
beetle members, discussions of swans together with elephants, while some offer
coconut pooja for Goddesses and gods asking various help like in the last presidential
election of America.
Can
we sell coconut or kurumba in America just because we buy flour from them or just
because they follow the strategies of Open Economy?
Can
we sell kurumba in the countries of OPEC, just because we buy their oil?
Can
you export our kurumba to the islands, sisiliana just because we purchase what
they grow in their Island?
Thank
you reading.
