------------ Many say, specially the older folks that the Jack fruit should not be eaten after food. According them it should be consumed at around 11 am or so as to get it better digested. Another thing the older generation maitained is - never drink water after eating Zamnas. Any convincing comments from our netters? --------------
I suppose all these folk taboos have a basis in medical fact. Some of the medical doctors on this List could maybe give us the basis for these beliefs.
The older folks also say that one will die immediately if one has watermelon before/after alcoholic drinks. Another thing I heard was that if a bit of cigarette ash falls into a beer glass the beer should be discarded as it becomes poisonous.
I have eaten jackfruit immediately after food, drank water after eating Zamnas, eaten watermelon before and after drinks.. and drunk beer in which some cigarette ash has fallen. I'm still alive and relatively healthy. Maybe it effects the mind!!
Cheers!
