7. What zulu people eat
The main food that Zulus eat consists of beer
(tshwala), Zulu bread, cooked chicken feet,
meat, amasi, pumpkin, cabbage, tubers and
phuthu or maize meal. Meat is roasted on
coals, and is often left scorched almost black
on the outside and very rare on the inside
(inyama eyosiwe). The Zulus drink amasi which
is sour, curdled milk. Milk is hardly ever drunk
fresh ('green milk'), but it is sometimes used to
thin amasi which has gone too thick to be
used. Maize is a popular part of the Zulu's diet.
