Dates! Fresh is best but if the dried ones from the store are the best you can get, then great! If they're too dry, soak them in some water and blend 'er up! I had dates for dinner. Best dinner eeeeever :)

be more prepared. simple as that. make sure you always have an abundance of ripe fruit always available. tis much better to have too much ripe fruit around than always finding yourself short..

Uff, horrible situation :D Yes, if you try to store more fruits at home, it definitely would help. Bananas, dates, mangoes (I've always about 25 mangoes at home ;))

With love

Plan better dude, get some big paper bags and put your bananas in with an apple or a tomato so they ripen quicker, shop two or 3 times a week.

It happened to me during my transition period because all the fruits are in the phase of ripening. What I did is not recommendable, but I just ate the unripe bananas and bought many many many more bunches of bananas for them to ripen. You can get some dried fruits during this period as well.

 

The small bananas, are they the "ang ba jio"?

 

When my house have insufficient ripe fruits, I go to Shop N Save near my house to get some "overripe" papayas and around 10 apples for my meal. Otherwise I'll just go to bed since those times always happened at night.

 

Hope this helped!

I can really sympathise with this...I just hate being starving for a meal with nothing in the house but bad quality fruit that'll make you sick if you eat it but if you don't, you'll get cravings for other stuff just cos you're so undercarbed.

I would reccomend always having lots of dates in the house. Apples will also keep really well in the fridge so can be stored for emergencies. Other than that maybe have a huge salad if you can eat veggies ok. (Beetroot, cucumber, lettuce, tomatoes if you can eat them etc.) It won't give you tons of sugar but it'll fill you up and it's better to eat something lfrv than be tempted on to other foods.

Hope this helps and take care,

Esperanza

I just had to learn to buy more in advance, it takes time to get used to the massive quantities you'll need but you get used to it and now I think nothing of ordering 11 kilos of oranges all at once from my organic supplier. You'll end with fruit piled up everywhere lol but you get used to that too :-)

oh and keep a stash of frozen bananas too so if all else fails you can make a fat bowl of 'ice-cream' :-D
