Nenas

Orientation :
In my world, there are 2 variants of pineapple ~ nanas bukit and the ordinary pineapple.
Ordinary pineapple is rather itchy to the mouth
Nenas bukit is juicy, and u can also eat the centre without having the feeling of wanting to scratch your tongue.
Between the two, nenas bukit is rather sporadic


Mom made laksa as per my request. The condiments includes pineapple as well. She use the ordinary one. I saved half of it with intention to make rojak.

Dad came home with 5 handfuls daun cenohom, 7 pieces of bunga kantan aka gingerbulb, sour,crunchy young mangoes and half of nanas bukit.
Told abah that I'll use the plain pineapple for rojak and save nanas bukit for snacking during the long hours of travelling tomorrow.

Abah : buat apa nanaih tu. bukannya sedap pon. tak makan pon takpa.
Me : Sampainya hati abah. Kecik hati mak dengaq.
And he proceeds to peeling his worthily edible nanas bukit because I lack the skill of peeling and de-eying the pineapples.
Being a fruit lover, I took a piece straight into my mouth.
Ngap!
It takes a second before my tastebud caught the bad taste.
The worthily edible nanas bukit turned out to be overripened.
I had to take it out of me mouth.
Glad that I am not partial to the superior nanas bukit.

My dad sure is an unintentional joker. It's such a shame that it'll be another few moons before I'll get to see him again, inshaallah.

Abah, I still love you despite your funny, childish personality in regards to food.
