It must be summer and like clockwork at this time of the year, the heat is getting to Goans again who do not know how to chill. May I recommend "GOAJITO" cocktail, similar to MOJITO (except with feni) to cool off in summer. I have not copyrighted or copylefted the term "GOAJITO", so feel free to forward to other Goan forums or post on the Herald or Times of India online editions. Please also cc: the Emperor of Japan, Maradona (of soccer fame), and the Prime Minister of Singapore (or any other South-East Asian country). If Gilbert does not like SPAM, that is understandable but he should not shout as that could lead to high blood pressure, hence the urgent need for "GOAJITO". In the "old days" SPAM and KRAFT cheese was highly sought after, but is now readily available in Goa. However, for religious and dietary reasons, SPAM may be considered unwanted. In which case, consider sending BHINDI. Not just vegetarians, but others will appreciate it - if cooked in a tasty manner. Of course, some will say 'DO NOT BHINDI ME' since the vegetable does have an odd texture and taste. In Cecil Pinto's Facebook in South Goa, the phrase "DO NOT BHINDI ME' may catch on as something unwanted. You never know. But you read it here first.
