Frigo

Frigo es una empresa española dedicada a fabricar y comercializar helados, que forma parte de la multinacional Unilever desde 1973. La firma es la marca española de la rama internacional Heartbrand, que opera en otros países como Wall's (Reino Unido), Bresler (Chile), Holanda (México), Pingüino (Ecuador) o Tío Rico (Venezuela).
La empresa fue fundada en 1927 en Barcelona, con el nombre de Industrias Frigoríficas de Alimentación. Dicha compañía fue la primera empresa española en producir helados de forma industrial, y más tarde se expandió por todo el territorio nacional como Productos Frigo.​ En sus inicios, además de helados, se dedicaba a producir yogures y alimentos precocinados.​
En 1973, la multinacional anglo-holandesa Unilever se convirtió en la máxima accionista de Frigo, por aquel entonces con una plantilla de 700 empleados y un capital de 262 millones de pesetas.​ Bajo su control, Frigo se especializará exclusivamente en helados; además de distribuir las marcas del grupo, empezó a desarrollar sus propias referencias como Drácula (1977), Frigodedo (1980), Frigopie (1983), Calippo (1984), Twister (1986) y el Magnum Frac (1991).​ Muchas de esas marcas siguen disponibles.​
A partir de 1998, Frigo asimiló la imagen corporativa unificada Heartbrand, con un corazón como logotipo.
Unilever anunció en 2008 que abandonaría la fábrica del Pueblo Nuevo. Aunque en un principio pensó cerrarla, finalmente la vendió a la compañía catalana Farga, productora de los helados Farggi.​
Bahía de Green Bay

La bahía de Green Bay (en inglés: Green Bay o Bay of Green Bay) es una bahía lacustre de los Estados Unidos, un brazo o entrante del lago Míchigan, que se encuentra a lo largo de la costa sur de la península Superior de Míchigan y la costa este de Wisconsin. Está separada del resto del lago por la península de Door, Wisconsin, la península Garden, en Michigan, y la cadena de islas entre ellas, todas formadas por el escarpe de Niagara. La bahía de Green Bay tiene unos 193 km de longitud, con una anchura que varia entre aproximadamente 16 y 32 km, y una superficie de 4210 km².​​
En el extremo sur de la bahía se encuentra la ciudad de Green Bay, Wisconsin, donde desagua el río Fox en la bahía. El puente Memorial Leo Frigo (anteriormente conocido como el puente Tower Drive) se extiende en la punta en que la bahía termina y comienza el río Fox. A nivel local, la bahía es a menudo llamada la bahía de Green Bay (Bay of Green Bay) para distinguir la bahía de la ciudad. La bahía es navegable para buques de gran tamaño.
La bahía tiene riberas en cinco condados de Wisconsin —Brown, Door, Kewaunee, Marinette, Oconto— y dos de Michigan —Delta y Menominee.
Durante el período de Nueva Francia, entre 1634 y 1760, la bahía fue nombrada «baie des Puants» (literalmente, "bahía de los Apestosos"), como atestiguan muchos mapas franceses de los siglos XVII y XVIII.
Según George R. Stewart, los franceses recibieron el nombre de sus guías amerindios, quienes llamaron «Puants» a las tribus amerindias que vivían cerca de la bahía. Por derivación, también fue el nombre dado a la misma bahía, «baie des Puants», pero también ha servido para identificar el conjunto de toda la región durante el período de la Nueva Francia (Stewart 1967:88).
El nombre de la península de Door y Condado proviene del nombre de una ruta entre Green Bay y el lago Míchigan. Los seres humanos, si los americanos nativos, exploradores o americanos capitanes de naves, han sido bien conscientes de los peligros del "Passage du port du mort" (en francés) or "Death's door Passage" (en inglés).
Dario Frigo

Dario Frigo (Saronno, 18 de septiembre de 1973) es un ciclista italiano que fue profesional desde 1996 hasta 2005.
Inició su carrera en el Saeco. Sus características técnicas eran las de rodador, aunque también destacaba en la lucha contrarreloj. Venció algunas etapas en el Giro y el Tour y se colocó la maglia rosa del Giro de Italia.
Su carrera estuvo marcada por el dopaje: en 2001, en el Giro de Italia, se le acusó de tener sustancias dopantes después de la redada policial urdida en San Remo. Su equipo por aquel entonces (Fassa Bortolo) lo despidió, siguiendo la reglamentación interna. Frigo se declaró culpable y quedó descalificado. Los análisis que se le efectuaron demostraron que no había sustancias dopantes en ese momento pero que probablemente el corredor se las había tomado. En 2005, al término de la etapa de Courchevel del Tour de Francia, fue arrestado por la gendarmería francesa tras encontrarse sustancias dopantes en el coche de su esposa en el puesto fronterizo de Albertville.

List of frozen dessert brands

This is a list of frozen dessert brands. Frozen dessert is the generic name for desserts made by freezing liquids, semi-solids, and sometimes even solids. They may be based on flavored water (shave ice, sorbet, snow cones, etc.), fruit purées (such as sorbet), milk and cream (most ice creams), custard (frozen custard and some ice creams), mousse (semifreddo), and others.
Mr. Whippy (United Kingdom)

Mr. Whippy (or Mister Whippy) is a brand of soft-mix ice cream produced by Wall's, a subsidiary of Unilever as part of the Heartbrand. Mr. Whippy began as a franchise of ice cream operators, but is now just the name of the soft-mix ice cream, as such, many ice cream vendors selling the soft-mix brand themselves as "Mr. Whippy" and stylise their vehicles and outlets as they wish. Actual franchises of the brand continue separately in Australia and New Zealand.
The name "Mr. Whippy" has become a generic trademark in the United Kingdom amongst consumers to refer to soft-serve ice cream in a single cone.
The company originated when British businessman Dominic Facchino visited the United States and saw the Mister Softee ice cream franchise, selling soft serve ice cream from mobile ice cream vans. Unable to license the brand in the UK, Facchino set up his own Mr. Whippy franchise in Birmingham in 1958, starting with a fleet of six vans.
The company was purchased by Unilever in 1966.
The company franchised internationally to Australia in 1962 by sending ten vans on a ship from Southampton to Sydney. Following success, a second batch was sent the following year, consisting of twenty-four vans. Following great success in Australia, Facchino decided to also franchise in New Zealand, sending twenty-four vans over. During the franchise period from Mr. Whippy in the UK, around two hundred Commer Karrier vans were exported from the United Kingdom to Australia, and fifty Austins were exported to New Zealand. The company also franchised for a brief time on the Spanish island of Mallorca.
The company's franchise in Australia continued until the mid-1970s, after which the physical vehicle fleet was renamed and sold to several private operators. In 1982, the trademark "Mr. Whippy" was registered in Australia by ice cream parlour company Mr. Whippy Pty Ltd. Today, the Franchised Food Company owns the brand.
General Foods Limited (subsequently Tip Top) acquired the master rights for New Zealand in the early 1980s. The Isuzu Elf became the standard Mr. Whippy van and an orange and white colour scheme replaced the original pink and white. In early 2000, Tip Top sold the master franchise to Peter Woodhams, the Waikato Mr. Whippy franchisee, who in turn sold the master franchise to Flying Kiwi Holdings (a business owned and run by Nick Cairns, Scot and Geliana Graham) in 2006. The Mr. Whippy vans became modernised, using Ford Transit and Fiat Ducato models, various Fuso variants and Tatua replaced Fonterra Brands NZ as the provider of the Mr. Whippy UHT ice cream mix. As of the present day, in New Zealand, there are around 36 Mr. Whippy franchisees operating 58 vans.

Chamarasa

Chamarasa (c. 1425) was a 15th century Virashaiva poet in the Kannada language, during the reign of Vijayanagar Empire, a powerful empire in Southern India during 14th - 16th centuries. A contemporary and competitor to a noted Brahmin Kannada poet Kumara Vyasa, Chamarasa was patronised by King Deva Raya II. The work is in 25 chapters (gatis) comprising 1111 six-line verses (arupadi).
His magnum opus, "Prabhulinga Leele", written in 1430 AD, described Allama Prabhu as an early apostle of Veerashaivism and an incarnation of the god Shiva. Chamarasa and other noted Kannada writers such as Lakkanna Dandesa and Jakkanarya flourished under the patronage of King Deva Raya II. Chamarasa was a champion of the Veerashaiva faith and was a rival of Kumara Vyasa in the king's court. His Prabhulinga Lile, written in the native Bhamini Shatpadi metrical composition form (six line verse or hexa-metre) was a eulogy of 12th-century saint Allama Prabhu. So popular was the writing with the King that he had it translated into Telugu and Tamil languages, and later into the Sanskrit and Marathi languages as well. In the story, the saint is considered an incarnation of the Hindu god Ganapathi while Parvati took the form of a princess of Banavasi. While Kumara Vyasa's epic is war-torn (Kumara Vyasa Bharata, his version of the Hindu epic Mahabharata), Chamarasa writing was full of Yoga and vairagya (renunciation). The book includes details of the journey undertaken by Allama Prabhu en route to Basavakalyana, his interaction with notable Veerashaiva mystics including Basavanna, Akka Mahadevi, Gorakhnatha, Muktayakka and Siddharama. Interesting details include how Allama avoided the temptation of Mayadevi who tried to seduce him, and how Animisha became his guru. While these personalities are all real, it is possible they also represent human qualities narrated in a "parallel allegorical story". Competition between the two powerful faiths, Veerashaivism and Vaishnavism was intense during this period. This is evident by a remark made by the poet in the writing. Chamarasa claims that his story is "not about ordinary dead mortals", implying that the Vaishnava epics (the Ramayana and the Mahabharata) were about mere mortals.
Howard Jones (American singer)

Howard Jones (born July 20, 1970) is an American metalcore vocalist best known as the former lead singer of Killswitch Engage and Blood Has Been Shed. He is the current vocalist of Light the Torch, formerly known as Devil You Know, and SION with YouTuber/guitarist Jared Dines.
Jones' vocal performances have been described as "emotive and strident," and he has been referred to as "one of metalcore’s finest singers."
Jones started making music in the underground band Driven in 1996, releasing a single album. He later performed with Blood Has Been Shed from 1997 to 2004. In 2002, he joined Killswitch Engage as their new vocalist after Jesse Leach left the band. During his time with Killswitch Engage, they released two gold-certified albums, The End of Heartache and As Daylight Dies, as well as a second self-titled album. Jones left the band after nearly ten years in 2012, but remained a close friend. He would go on to collaborate with them again for the single "The Signal Fire" from their album Atonement. His later band Light the Torch would also tour with Killswitch Engage, and he would appear with the band onstage to perform the song, as well as other songs from his time with them, often as a duet alongside Leach.
Jones started a new band Devil You Know with guitarist Francesco Artusato (All Shall Perish) and drummer John Sankey (Devolved, Fear Factory and Divine Heresy). After Sankey's departure and his attempt to claim the copyright of the band's name, the rest of the band members started again with a fresh name, Light the Torch, with the addition of a new drummer.
In March 2021, Jones joined with heavy metal YouTuber Jared Dines and producer Hiram Hernandez to release "The Blade" as part of a new project named Sion.
On December 3rd 2024, Jones via his Instagram confirmed that He and former Killswitch Engage bandmate Adam Dutkiewicz were almost finished mixing a Debut Album for their new band called Burn Eternal.
Jones is an avid fisherman and owns property on the Red River of the North in Manitoba, Canada. He is a frequent guest on Jamey Jasta's podcast on the GaS Digital Network. Jones left Killswitch Engage in early 2012 to allow himself to manage his type 2 diabetes, which was worsened by a hectic touring lifestyle. In 2014, Jones stated that his diabetes put him in a coma for three days.
In 2015, Jones revealed that he had struggled with anxiety and depression for a long time, which had been worsened by his rise to fame in Killswitch Engage. He revealed that he had come close to committing suicide in 2009, when he had aimed a .44 Magnum revolver at his head in his apartment in Connecticut, and that the police had intervened after being notified by a concerned neighbor. In 2018, he teamed up with his former band to raise awareness for mental health; the resulting song "The Signal Fire" appears on the 2019 album Atonement.
Although formerly straight edge, Jones now shares a passion for medical cannabis with friend and fellow Killswitch Engage frontman Jesse Leach.
Drumstick (frozen dairy dessert)

Drumstick is the brand name, owned by Froneri, a joint venture between Nestlé and PAI Partners, for a variety of frozen dessert-filled ice cream cones sold in the United States, Australia, Canada, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and other countries. The original product was invented by I.C. Parker of the Drumstick Company of Fort Worth, Texas, in 1928.
A typical drumstick consists of a sugar cone filled with vanilla frozen dairy dessert topped with a hardened chocolate shell and nuts, and much later, with a chocolate-lined cone and a chunk of chocolate at the bottom invented at the West End factory in Brisbane. Normally the ice cream would soak into the moist cone during the manufacturing process which would have made it soggy and unpalatable when served, however this problem is overcome by insulating the inside of the waffle cone from the ice cream with a coating of oil, sugar, and chocolate. A hard chocolate shell at the top of the sugar cone holds its shape in case the ice cream starts to melt.
Drumsticks are available from a variety of supermarkets, ice cream trucks, and convenience stores. In the case of drumsticks labelled for individual sale, they are packaged in a rigid plastic wrapper.
Due to the historic popularity of this dessert, it is commonly called a "drumstick" even if it is manufactured by some other company and branded otherwise. "Forever Summer" has been a tagline for this brand.
In 1928, the Parker Brothers – Bruce, I.C., and J.T. – added to the invention of the waffle cone by adding a chocolate coating with nuts to it. One of the brothers' wives said that this invention looked like a chicken leg, commonly nicknamed a drumstick in the US.
Nestlé purchased the Drumstick Company in 1991. In 2016, Nestlé and PAI Partners established Froneri, a joint venture to combine the two companies' ice cream activities.
In 2019, a cereal from General Mills based on Drumsticks was released with two flavors, vanilla and mint chocolate.
Additional varieties of Drumstick include caramel and fudge-filled cones, Mint Chocolate Crunch, Cookies and Cream Crunch, and simply dipped, cones filled with caramel, chocolate, and plain vanilla are also found. In Canada, Nestlé offers a chocolate dipped Oreo Drumstick as well as Strawberry Cheesecake Drumstick.
According to the official website, the following Drumstick flavors are produced:
In early 2020, Nestlé released two vegan varieties of the dessert in Canada.
On April 16, 2021, Nestlé Canada recalled both flavours over concerns that the products may contain dairy not included on the ingredients label.

Gratiaen Prize

The Gratiaen Prize is an annual literary prize for the best work of literary writing in English by a resident of Sri Lanka. It was founded in 1992 by the Sri Lankan-born Canadian novelist Michael Ondaatje with the money he received as joint-winner of the Booker Prize for his novel The English Patient. The prize is named after Ondaatje's mother, Doris Gratiaen.
Administered by the Gratiaen Trust based in Sri Lanka, the Gratiaen Prize accepts printed books and manuscripts in a range of genres including fiction, poetry, drama, creative prose and literary memoir. Entries may be submitted by both authors and publishers. Submissions are accepted between 1 and 31 December in a given year and are assessed by a panel of three judges appointed by the trust who are required to short-list three to five entries. The short-list event (open to the public) is usually held in April and hosted by the British Council in Colombo. The gala at which the winner is announced is held some weeks later at a venue selected by the trust and the event sponsors and is for invitees only.
The prize could be awarded for a translated work until 2003, when the trust established the H.A.I. Goonetileke Prize, which is awarded every second year for a work translated into English from Sinhala or Tamil.

Campeonato Sudamericano Sub-20 de 2001

El XX Campeonato Sudamericano Sub-20 "Juventud de América" se realizó en Ecuador entre el 12 de enero y el 4 de febrero de 2001. El certamen otorgó 4 plazas para la Copa Mundial de Fútbol Sub-20 de 2001, que se jugó a partir del 17 de junio en Argentina. Por ser el organizador, Argentina clasificó directamente al mundial, por lo que si clasificaba dentro de los mejores 4 seleccionados en el Sudamericano, la plaza vacante sería ocupada por el equipo que ocupara el quinto puesto. Las sedes del torneo fueron Latacunga, Ambato, Riobamba, Cuenca, Portoviejo, Machala y Guayaquil. La ciudad de Quito descartó albergar la competición debido al descenso de Liga de Quito a la Serie B de Ecuador.​​​​​​​​​​​
Participaron en el torneo los equipos representativos de las 10 asociaciones nacionales afiliadas a la Confederación Sudamericana de Fútbol:

Jamil Mahuad

Jorge Jamil Mahuad Witt (born 29 July 1949) is an Ecuadorian lawyer, academic and former politician. He was the 41st president of Ecuador from 10 August 1998 to 21 January 2000.
Mahuad was born in Loja, Ecuador. He is of Lebanese and German descent.
Mahuad attended Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government, where he received a Master of Public Administration in 1989. He was a US State Department–sponsored Fulbright Fellow.
Harvard University published a case study on Mahuad, called "Leadership and Negotiation: Ending the Western Hemisphere's Longest Running Border Conflict."
Mahuad initially ran in the presidential election of 1988, coming in a distant fifth place. He then served as mayor of Quito from 1992 to 1998.
Ten years after his first presidential run, he won the presidential election by a very close margin. Álvaro Noboa, the defeated candidate, asked for a vote recount, which was denied by the authority responsible. There was a severe economic crisis in Ecuador (including the 1998–99 Ecuador banking crisis), which had led to a 60% cut in the armed forces budget. Mahuad's popularity rating fell from 60% in October 1998 to 6% in January 2000. In the final days of 1999, he announced the dollarization of the economy of Ecuador, along with a number of International Monetary Fund measures.
Mahuad was forced to resign after a week of demonstrations by indigenous Ecuadorians and a military revolt led by Lucio Gutiérrez.
He proposed economic reforms that produced the "dollarization" of the economy. He declared a freeze in bank accounts in order to control rampant inflation. This caused massive unrest as the lower classes struggled to convert their now useless Ecuadorian sucres to US dollars and lost wealth, while the upper classes (whose members already had their wealth invested in US dollars) gained wealth in turn. Under Mahuad's recession-plagued term, the economy shrank significantly, and inflation reached levels of up to 60 percent.
During Mahuad's presidency, a historic peace agreement with Peru was signed, resolving long-standing border disputes. Under the agreement, Ecuador renounced its claims to sovereignty of the disputed territory under the Rio de Janeiro Protocol, and in return, Peru deeded ownership of one km² of territory to Ecuador. Mahuad concluded the peace with Peru on 26 October 1998.
Mahuad is also a senior advisor at CMI International Group in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
In May 2014, Ecuador’s National Court of Justice sentenced him to twelve years jail term on embezzlement charges.

Алаг мэлхий өрөх

Хүүхэд багачууд томчуулын хамтаар “Алаг мэлхий өрөх” хэмээх шагай өрөх тоглоомоор наадан ирсэн сайхан уламжлалтай билээ. Эл тоглоомыг хэдэн ч хүн тоглох боломжтой бөгөөд 92 шагайг мэлхийний бие болгон өрж нааддаг.
Мэлхийний биеийг бүтээсний дараа толгой талд нь улаан будагтай дөрвөн шагайг дугуйлан өрж, зүүн гар талд хөх будагтай 5 шагайг нум сумны сүүл хэлбэртэй өрөөд “мод” гэж нэрлэн, баруун хажуугаас нь тухайн сумны үзүүр цухуйсан шинжтэй гурван цагаан өнгийн шагай өрөөд “төмөр” гэж нэрлэнэ. Мөн дөрвөн сарвуун дээр нь шороо, огторгуй, уул, салхи гэж тус тус нэг шагай тавьдаг. Ийнхүү цагаан сарын үед наадах “Алаг мэлхий” нь нийт 108 шагайнаас бүрддэг байна. Шинийн нэгэнд арван хоёр жилийн тоолол ёсоор учран золгож буй жилтэй ижил жилтэй хүн, эсвэл түүнтэй ивээл жилтэй хүнээс эхлэн нар зөв тойрон суусан дарааллаар шоо хаяж тоглодог.
Хэрэв шооны нүх аваад дуусчихсан зүйлийн тоогоор буувал тэр тоотой шагайг буцааж өрнө. Энэ мэтээр тоглосоор өрсөн шагайг авч дуусахад хэн олныг авсан нь хождог. Энэ тоглоомд хожсон хүнийг тэр жилдээ аз хийморьтой байна гэж үздэг. Шагайн наадгай нь хүүхдийг дэг журамтай болгож, нүдний харааг сайжруулж, ажигч гярхай болгодог байна.

Yacuruna

The Yacuruna are a mythical water people of the Amazon basin who live in beautiful underwater cities, often at the mouths of rivers. Belief in the Yacuruna is most prominently found among indigenous people of the Amazon. The term is derived from the Quechua language, yaku ("water") and runa ("man").
The Yacuruna is described as being hairy with a backward-facing head and deformed feet. Illustrations depict the Yacuruna as a man-like creature accompanied by a serpent and riding a crocodile. It is considered by many to be a god who has the power to change into an attractive man.
The Yacuruna roam the Amazon rainforest at night using black crocodiles as canoes. During the day they sleep at the bottoms of rivers and lakes with one eye open. They have the ability to communicate with aquatic animals of the Amazon and have ultimate control over them. Locals believe that Yacuruna can transform into an Amazon river dolphins which are attracted to the odor of blood in menstruating women. Once the woman is found, a Yacuruna will transform into a handsome and alluring man who then uses aphrodisiacs to kidnap her and bring her into his kingdom in the depths of the river.
Yacuruna are said to inhabit underwater cities that mirror upside-down human cities. The cities can be interpreted as reflections on the surface of the water. Within the city, the Yucuruna live in palaces of crystal with multicolored walls of fish scales and pearl, reclining on hammocks of feathers under a mosquito net of butterfly wings. The hammocks are snakes, with turtles for seats.
Yacuruna can be characterized as dangerous spirits who lure humans into the water by taking on human forms. When people of the Amazonian community disappear and do not return such as fishermen, husbands, and young girls (who become mysteriously pregnant), it is often assumed that they have been seduced and captured by the Yacuruna.
The abducted victims gradually transform into yacuruna: first, their eyes turn to resemble the Yacuruna, then their head and feet turn backward so that they cannot find their way home, and must continue onwards to the underwater city. Transformation is irreversible and a victim may never return to his or her home.
Don Juan Flores Salazar describes a story of how his little sister was taken by a Yacuruna. One day she was swimming when she was pulled underwater and vanished. It was not until years later when he saw her again, still alive but had transformed into a mermaid. She had married a Yacuruna, and gained knowledge in becoming a healer of the waters. They complemented one another for he was a healer of the lands: he believed it was her destiny to become a Yacuruna.
A Yacuruna can be summoned by a shaman to act as a familiar. It may pass on healing knowledge to a sick person or shaman, and in this way they establish trust. Once trust has been established, the Yacuruna will turn the person's head towards the front again, allowing the individual to return to the human world. A yacuruna can be the source of shamanic powers, becoming a powerful ally to the shaman.
Kalu dodol

Kalu dodol (Sinhala: කලු දොදොල්, Tamil: தொதல்) is a sweet dish, a type of dodol that is popular in Sri Lanka. The dark and sticky dish consists mainly of kithul jaggery (from the sap of the toddy palm), rice flour and coconut milk. Kalu dodol is a very difficult and time-consuming dish to prepare. The Hambanthota area is famous for the production of this dish.
Kalu dodol is believed to have been introduced to Sri Lanka by Indonesian migrants, It has also been attributed to the Portuguese, who occupied parts of the country during the 16th and 17th centuries. With the introduction of artificial ingredients in recent times, the preparation of kalu dodol has occasionally deviated from the traditional recipes.
Kalu dodol, along with other traditional sweets, is commonly prepared and consumed in celebration of the Sinhala New Year. As the process of making the dish is difficult and time-consuming, nowadays most people don't make kalu dodol themselves, instead preferring to buy it from shops.
The Hambanthota area in southern Sri Lanka is famous for kalu dodol, and is sometimes referred to as the kalu dodol capital. The kalu dodol industry is a major source of income for many people in the area.
The kalu dodol shops in Hambanthota are frequently visited by pilgrims coming to visit the nearby holy town of Kataragama. In 2011, the Sri Lankan government allocated Rs. 134 million for setting up kalu dodol sales centres in the Hambanthota area, in an effort to develop the industry.
The main ingredients of kalu dodol are kithul jaggery (from the treacle of the Caryota urens plant), rice flour and coconut milk. Other ingredients such as cashews, cardamom and raisins may be added. It is dark brown in colour and is a thick, sticky and sweet jelly-like dish with a "slightly granulated" texture.
To make the dish, the kithul jaggery and thin coconut milk is mixed and boiled in a large pan until the mixture is reduced to half the original amount. The rice flour, thick coconut milk and the rest of the ingredients are then added. It is necessary to continuously stir the mixture while simmering, to prevent it from burning and sticking to the pan. The oil that floats to the surface of the mixture must also be repeatedly removed. Once the mixture becomes thick, it is poured into a tray, pressed, and left to cool. This labour-intensive process can take up to nine hours. The firm kalu dodol is cut into pieces before serving.
Riz gras

This dish can be considered a variation of what is known as jollof rice in English-speaking West Africa.
Riz gras is often served at parties in urban areas of Burkina Faso. Riz gras is prepared with significant amounts of meat and vegetables, and is usually served with the meat and chunks of vegetables presented atop the rice. Additional ingredients used include tomatoes, eggplant, bell peppers, carrots, cabbage, onion, garlic, meat or vegetable stock, oil and salt.

Kawah Putih

Kawah Putih adalah sebuah tempat wisata di Jawa Barat yang terletak di Desa Alam Endah, Kecamatan Rancabali, Kabupaten Bandung, Jawa Barat yang terletak di kaki Gunung Patuha. Kawah putih merupakan sebuah danau yang terbentuk dari letusan Gunung Patuha. Tanah yang bercampur belerang di sekitar kawah ini berwarna putih, lalu warna air yang berada di kawah ini berwarna putih kehijauan, yang unik dari kawah ini adalah airnya kadang berubah warna. Danau Kawah Putih sendiri berada pada ketinggian 2194 m tapi luas total Danau Kawah Putih 25 ha yang dipakai wisata 5 ha dan lokasi kawah sendiri 3 ha.
Perairannya yang berwarna biru kristal berubah dengan kondisi cuaca, dan dilapisi dengan pasir putih halus, memberikan pengunjung pengalaman dunia lain. Bahkan vegetasi di sekitar area ini sangat berbeda dengan yang di bawah.
Kisah tentang Kawah Putih Ciwidey diketahui berawal pada abad ke-10. Di masa lampau, terjadi sebuah letusan Gunung Patuha yang sangat hebat. Pasca letusan terdapat kejadian aneh, yaitu sekelompok burung terbang melewati Kawah Putih didapati mati. Karena hal ini, pada masa itu penduduk setempat menganggap bahwa kawasan tersebut merupakan kawasan yang angker.
Berita keangkeran Gunung Patuha ini sampai ke telinga seorang cendekiawan Belanda yaitu Dr. Franz Wilhelm Junghuhn. Dr Junghuhn saat itu tinggal di kawasan tanah Priangan untuk mengembangkan tanaman kina. Sikap skeptis Dr Junghuhn membawa dirinya dan beberapa penduduk setempat pada tahun 1837 melawan mitos yang membuat orang enggan mendaki Gunung Patuha. Ia menemukan alasan mengapa burung-burung enggan melintasi Gunung Patuha. Kawah yang terdapat di puncak gunung menguarkan aroma belerang yang menyengat sehingga binatang pun menghindarinya.
Selepas penemuan itu, pabrik belerang bernama Zwavel Ontgining Kawah Putih dibangun. Pabrik itu dibangun saat masa kolonial Belanda. Saat Indonesia dijajah Jepang, pabrik itu tetap dikelola dan berganti nama jadi Kawah Putih Kenzaka Gokoya Ciwidey.
Meski keberadaannya sudah diketahui sangat lama, masyarakat Indonesia baru menjadikan tempat ini sebagai lokasi wisata pada tahun 1987. Saat itu, Pemerintah Orde Baru melalui PT Perhutani (Persero) Unit III Jawa Barat dan Banten menjadikan Kawah Putih sebagai lokasi wisata.
