In reply to Vel. As someone who is Sinhalese and Tamil, I find your views on shared cultures and cuisines quite disappointing.

Kothu roti means chopped roti in Tamil…exactly as how it’s prepared. I find it amusing that Sinhalese people steal and trademark Tamil food as if it’s their own. In fact pittu, appam etc all are Tamil food…and it’s also found in Tamil Nadu in India. Another way Sinhalese people just can’t leave Tamil people alone. Stay in Sri Lanka and do your own things. Stop following Tamils around everywhere and copying what we are doing.

Thank you for the very interesting article on the food of Sri Lanka. I didn’t actually know what you would eat. It looks very interesting. Thanks for complementing the article with pictures. Then you can actually see what you experienced.

In reply to Vicente San Agustin. We do cook with cinnamon bark A LOT but I know for a fact that we have family members with diabetes.

I have heard everyone eats the native cinnamon (real cinnamon not cassia) at every meal and that no one there has diabetes. Is this true?
