Eating seaweeds



This is lato, a seaweed rich in iodine. Being a coastal city, we get this fresh everyday. I seem to remember eating this only during lunchtime. Why? Because it wilts by evening. Even if it's freshly bought, it's not freshly caught, or should I say gathered? We eat this seaweed dipped in kalamansi (local citrus fruit) with salt. It kinda pops inside your mouth when you eat it, like eating teeny tiny grapes. This goes well with seafoods.

My husband loves this! I can eat it, but I'm not really crazy about it.
