THERE’S NO SPACE!

The Department of Science and Technology Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources (DOST PCAARRD) on Monday educated netizens on the correct English translation of the popular Filipino crop “kamote.”

In a Facebook post, DOST PCAARRD said that “kamote” is “sweetpotato” in English, noting that it does not have a space and that it is not two words.

The department also shared that sweetpotato is one of their research and development staples. (Facebook/DOST PCAARRD)

Not all fruits and vegetables are perfect. In fact, a high percentage of "ugly" is being rejected by supermarkets and are ending up in waste bins. These imperfect produce are still perfectly edible and could provide a healthy dose of vitamins and minerals.
What everyone can do to minimize food loss and waste:
1. Producers can start a farmers' market to sell imperfect produce at a lower price
2. Consumers should cook and buy only what they can consume
3. Be friendly! Share excess to neighbors and the needy
4. Preserve produce to extend their shelf life. Preserving may be done without using chemicals such as when freezing, pickling, drying/dehydrating, making marmalades, and brining.
