When the trade winds shift and the fish run thick, every pirogue on every beach goes out. The men sail before dawn and return with wahoo, tuna, grouper, and the spiny lobster that will become langouste a la vanille. The season dictates what is on the plate and the whole island eats according to what the ocean provides. When the fish are running, nobody goes hungry.
Tropical fruits in Comoros are not a luxury. They are everywhere. Mangoes, papayas, pineapples, custard apples, jackfruit, breadfruit, bananas of a dozen varieties, and the legendary fruit a pain (breadfruit) that grows on trees and feeds families when nothing else is in season. Fruit season is when every child walks home from school with a mango in each hand and juice on their chin. The vitamin C intake of a Comorian child in fruit season would make a nutritionist weep with joy.
