Tonga- Food


Tongans traditionally eat two meals a day. The meals may consist of yams, taro leaves, sweet potatoes, cassava (yucca), fish, or pork. A different way of living is becoming more popular, European-style meals. A European eating style is a light, early breakfast, a meal at noon, and one in the evening.

A popular dish (Lu pulu) is cooked taro leaves with coconut cream and corned beef. Pork and chicken are the primary meats. Fish is a typical main dish. Roast pig is a favorite in Tonga. Tongans enjoy many different tropical fruits that grown on the islands.
