Food worries

Today I made my first indian recipe. aalo ki sabzi with rice, and the good part is it was palatable.
usually we get processed food and eat that -like beritos, pizza ya aisa hi kuch. but since it was a week of free lunches and dinner for me, owing to the orientation, I didn't have to fend for food more than a couple of times. As for breakfast well its
cornflakes most of the time. We have bread but the taste is so
different from what we have in india. We usually get our groceries from shnucks- if you can call processed food, garlic paste, tomato puree as groceries! Have been to walmart- some stations away from where I live- an there I could see why everybody keeps flocking to this store. They have sell stuff which is cheap by a margin!
Another strange habit I have developed now is that now whenever I pick up an item, I tend to look at the nutrition facts printed on the same. I even looked up for nutrition facts on a packet of potatoes, but what left me startled was they had printed one on that too!
The american diet is low on fiber so whatever u do, try having more fibre
as raw vegetables else u will get constipated soon, especially if you come from India.
