Sunda is a land of paradise for lalab lovers.  Lalab, is a dish of fresh leaves and  
other part of plants, such as fruits, nuts and even flowers that are eaten along with 
the main food (rice).
<br>

<br>
The Sundanese people have been used to this habit of eating plants, such as lalab, for 
generations until today.  There is even a proverb that says that Sundanese people will 
never be starved even if they were left in a jungle aslong as there are plants for 
them to eat.  This proverb, which sometimes is used as some kind of joke by the 
Javeneses, actually has a deeper meaning. Indonesia is a tropical country that has 
abundant biological resources, and even is the world� s greatest mega biodiversity 
country after Brazil.  The Sundanese habit of consuming vegetables like lalab has been 
in its culture for a very long time ago.
