do you know the popular foods in madagascar And major food products

Malgaches like their food simply prepared, flavorful, but not highly spiced. Fruits and vegetables are utilized at their freshest, and it is not uncommon to start a meal with vegetable soup and then to serve two or three vegetables with the entree. The beverage that goes with the meal is Ranonapango, a drink made by burning rice--yes, actually burning the rice and adding water to it.
The entree might very well be a chicken or fish curry, and it is usually one of the three rice meals each day. In Malagasy curries are prepared a little differently than in other countries.
The dessert is usually fruit, flavored with vanilla. Some call Madagascar the Vanilla Island as they call Zanzibar the Spice Island. The fruit is not only prepared with vanilla, but more vanilla is added to it when it is served.
Malagasy tea, their own special brand completes a most nutritious meal.
Start with the Lasopy, the veal vegetable puree, thick and hearty and served in earthenware bowls.
The Varenga, beautifully browned shredded beef, arrives in the oven- proof dish in which it was baked and is set on a trivet. A large bowl of Vary Amin Anana, steaming hot vegetables, and the Lasary Voatabia, tomato and scallion salad, are set on the table at the same time. It is not common practice to serve bread or rolls, but be sure that a large bowl of white rice is part of the dinner.
Ranonapango, the burned-rice drink would be correct to serve with the dinner.
As dessert, the Salady Voankazo (fresh fruits with lichee nuts) is served.

most commonly eaten: rice. breakfast. lunch and dinner. by itself or spiced up with onion and herbs.

when i was there the food i ate varied by region. i ate lots of chicken, fish, lobster, and beef (zebu ox). as an american- more protein in the form of meat is available. due to poverty and the cost, meat is not available to many malagasy for the majority of meals.

vegetables such as carrots, squash, lettuce, tomato. all were common.

most dishes are not too spicy, although curries are readily found in the east.

Tiko is a company (owned by the president) that makes and distributes many foods such as dairy products, fruit juices, sugar, etc.
