Re-think “Eating” as The Consumption of Solid Food Only.
Food to be eaten does not have to been in solid form. Food can also be consumed in semi-liquid & fully liquid form. The examples herein are relatable to Jamaicans & wider Caribbean Nationals:
Semi-liquid food examples: Porridge (cornmeal, oats, banana, peanut, hominy); Non-Fruit Smoothie (blended oats & peanut); Yogurt & Fruit; Cereal (cornflakes & milk-dairy/non-dairy)
Fully-liquid food examples: commercial protein shake (homemade, store purchased); Milk (plant-based, dairy); Fruit Smoothie-with milk or without (banana, papaya, berry).
Have Fruits Present At Home
Fruits can be eaten as is; and requires very little time to be prepared for the go. As highlighted in the examples in the sub-section above, fruits make for great additions to smoothies & yogurt. Additionally, they can be eaten solo-frozen or fresh. A major deterrent for persons to purchase fruits, is their short shelf life & high relative cost; as well as their seasonality. As a solution, consider freezing your favorite fruit(s) when their in season, so that out of season, you can still have them in the options shared in the above sub-section.
