Another Whole Foods Spotlight: Burro Bananas

Burro bananas gained popularity when Dr. Sebi a renowned herbal healer brought to light the amazing nutritional benefits of this banana compared to the everyday cavendish bananas which are highly hybridized and gmo…

Burro banana is higher in minerals and lower in sugar and very versatile and can be cooked green like plantain’s or eaten when ripe when it’s sweet …it has a similar taste to conventional bananas and I have eaten them in smoothies and puréed burros for my daughter when she was small

You can find these bananas at your closest international farmers market, Latin stores or online…look for more information below 👇🏾

Def use these also as fried potato substitutes like loaded fries or tostones. They won't turn stale after frying either. Baby bananas work as well. And much respect to dr sebi

have you used this company? I think dr Bobby price also has a similar company that ships "exotic" fruit and chakabars might be coming back out with his fruit company also

Respect 🫡 I didn’t like the baby bananas…the seeds were too big…I love burros just can’t get them that often…where you get yours from?

yes it’s called iheartfruitbox…and I didn’t know Chaka was coming out with one too

we have several options where I am currently in Atlanta. LA has options to get them also from the Mexican markets and Miami I was able to get them from a local market straight off the tree plus the banana flower

in GA DeKalb farmers market has them sometimes. Buford highway farmers market has them, sometimes hmart or nam dae mun have them, or of course the Mexican markets

ok nice and do you ever find fresh soursop? Idk why it’s so hard to find soursop now…and do you collect fresh spring water too?

soursop from DeKalb and Buford in GA also but not right now probably. I think they come back around Feb or so. At least in LA they do. And no I don't collect water bc I'm technically a nomad so I don't have the space and resources to do so

Nursery funding

My child turned 9 months last week. I applied for government funded hours nearly 2 months ago and so well within the required timeframe for the April term, however upon receiving my first invoice without the funding applied and having questioned this, I have now been informed that the stretched funding doesn’t start until 4th May.

Has anyone else been told it won’t start until May?

The government site states it should start from April 1st, and so I intentionally set my nursery start and return to work as the start of April for that reason, knowing that I wouldn’t be able to afford the nursery on my sole income without the funding

Jealous of my husband

I’m so jealous of him and it’s making me resentful. We have a ten week old and I’m jealous that he is at work all day. I’m jealous he can leave for lunch and actually eat an uninterrupted lunch. Take a phone call uninterrupted. Chat with a friend he runs in to uninterrupted. Even go to the bathroom when he wants uninterrupted. He comes home from work when he wants. He’s not on a set schedule. Some days are late some are early. It depends on when he’s done. I’m jealous he can come home at 10pm and shower, eat and go right to bed uninterrupted because I already have the baby asleep. He doesn’t have to worry about anything house wise or baby wise because I’ve done it all. Meanwhile I’m covered in puke and crap and smell like rotten milk. When he is home he is VERY active and helpful. So it’s not that. I’m just jealous his world hasn’t changed and mine has I guess. This isn’t something he’s doing wrong so I’m not sure how to get past this. I wish I could keep him home all day because that’s how helpful he is, but I understand he obv needs to work.

NHS job

Anyone work for the NHS and does 12 hour shifts? How do you work around childcare and your partners job?

Toddlers

How often are your toddlers asking for food? My oldest who is 3 just finished a whole plate of food and not even 10 minutes later he’s requesting more food. I know he’s going through a growth spurt, but how do you respond to this.

He has no respect for anything to do with me.

Husband and I decided to separate 3 days ago. I've been sleeping on the floor in the kids room, and we both have to stay in the same apartment for a while. He wont stop pushing little things and I am reaching my limit. Photos in comments

Is this normal?

Is it just my husband that does this? He is able to work from home via his computer and in the mornings and evenings he is on there doing his job. When he is done for the day he tends to stay in the room and either play video games or watch something. He will occasionally come out and play with the girls for a few minutes and that’s it but when I really need him he says he is busy. My daughters are both 1 year old now and I am just wondering how much involvement should he have with them now?
Idk if this is the norm or not…..
