Tambo is young bamboo shoots which can be cooked into mouth-watering dishes. I especially like tambo nga may gata, with shrimps or crabs and tugabang. Sorry, wala ako picture. And sadly, nobody in our house knows how to cook this dish. We either buy from the school canteen, or we wait for neighbors nga galwan kami ti isa ka karan-an.
Tambo can also be pickled. Grabe daw galaway na ko. Kapin pa kon native nga langgaw ang gamiton. Atsara na, dapli pa.
But tig-tarambo also means the coming of hordes of flies. Mga langaw. Sa Cabatuan, bisan diin lang, grabe ang langaw. Agto kaw sa refreshment parlors para magkaon pizza, baw grabe langaw. Don't order anything with raisins or pasas. Basi magkaon ka, abi mo pasas pa gali langaw na. Kadiri. Iba gani, sa balay nanda nagakaon sa sulod ka mosketero. Para waay langaw.
Ti diin nagharalin ang mga langaw? Ti waay gid timo kamaan nga raku poultry houses sa Cabatuan? Pamangkuton mo mga tag-iya ka poultry, waay tanda ti langaw sa anda poultry. Ti ang baho? Can this not attract flies?
Here's a picture of the softdrink I ordered. I was about to sip from my straw when I saw some moving matters inside the bottle, swimming on my softdrink. Langaw! And I was not the only victim. The others too, especially those who had Mountain Dew or Seven Up. Their softdrinks were not dark colored so you can really see the flies trying hard not to drown inside the bottles. Just pray that those who own the drinks also see what you see.
What then is the purpose of houseflies? Aren't all creatures having their own purposes for being?
I think the answer is simple. The flies would like to tell us not to drink softdrinks anymore. Softdrinks are unhealthy. Drink simple water instead. And you stay away from most diseases. @
