Info and Antics of the (half British) (half Sudanese) (1 of 2): Info.

The other week I was hanging out with my one (half British) (half Sudanese) friend and his sister, who both grew up mainly in the Sudan until they were in their early teens, and they were talking about Sudanese food.

Quite frankly, he said the appearance looked nasty, and that the cuisine was more about nourishment than being pretty.

He also said that there aren't many desserts to speak of, though one pretty widespread one is like the Ethiopian bread injera, you take some of that leftover and sprinkle sugar water on it, and that's your dessert.

Last time he was in the Sudan, like 3 years ago, he asked a relative to make some for old time's sake.

"It was disgusting," he was like.  "I can't believe I used to eat that."
