So many of these foods deserve to be in the "so expensive" series over the "risky business" series. I hope their work gets good compensation and recognition they deserve.

They definitely are repurposing stories from other videos, the first story even has the "so expensive" call at the beginning of it.
It still floors me that the people doing the dangerous work aren't the people making the most money.
The Panela sugar is called jaggery and you can buy it for $4/lb in any store that sells Indian grocery in the US.

@@mrblurblur2003I think you have no knowledge. Jaggery has been used for thousands of years in India and it is the best quality. There are many varieties some of them are soft as butter and melt in the mouth and so rich and deep flavour.
Panela reminds me of Gurr, in Punjab, India (known as jaggery in other parts of india). It's made the same way. Gurr is the only sugar we use at home. It's made in literally every village there. I've watched the process the last time I visited India. If you're American or Canadian, or anywhere there is an Indian store you can buy it for a pretty good price.

Pamela=jaggery, if made from sugarcane. Sometimes, jaggery also made from palm sap, that's the only difference. Hence, the sugarcane type used made the difference in taste. But, every jaggery/panela making always questioned in term of higiene. Especially, I'm sorry, in India, they cool it in pit under sandals level.
That first thing cost only 1 us dollar in my place, we call it guud (jaggery) every morning we eat it with tea .

I don’t think I will ever buy coconuts… $5 a day is not a livable wage for anyone. Sure, paying for kids education is alright, but not all of them have kids. This doesn’t justify taking advantage of people for $5 or $10 a day… One coconut is already $5. They can definitely afford to pay their employees high wages.

They say that it can be stored longer than honey, but honey can be stored for thousands of years and stay edible. I imagine jaggery could be stored longer due to lower moisture content, but proper honey storage should outlast many generations. High humidity would hurt jaggery as it could honey, as they are both hygroscopic.
@melissaharris3389

It think it's just easier to store (and transport) since it's a solid. Honey can also be crystallized or boilded down to a hard solid but it takes more honey; which traditionally would be harder to get as it had to be foraged from wild hives.

COME To Uttar Pradesh in India. During winter harvesting season you will find these Panela (Jaggery making units) every few hundred meters. Since it sound more exotic as a name and beautiful background, the author decided to go to Columbia.
Sugar cane was 1st cultivated in ancient India in the Indus. The raw sugar extract we call goor/ jaggery is this panela. India also cultivates sugar beets because the Indian market is the largest consumer of sugar in the world & it's art was mastered 1000's of years ago. The term sugar loaf derives from the Indian art of crystallizing liquid sugar that was also taught to those 2 Chinese Buddhist monks that stayed in India to learn civilization which they took back to feudal China's.

In my state in India, traditionally we used to use coconut oil, and we had never heard of heart attacks or strokes at those times. Then doctors and dieticians came up with a new theory of how coconut oil is bad for health and promoted refined oils. Many people believed the doctors and stopped consuming coconut. They all got heart problems and died at an earlier age. Those who traditionally consumed coconut oil had no health issues. Pharma companies spent millions on mass campaigns to criminalise coconut oil, but now people are realizing the real face of these pharma companies and their puppet doctors.

@@janzbedny5241 No dear. Most people lived till the 90s and 100s, but after the introduction of refined oil, many died in the 50s and 60s. After the COVID vaccination, heart attacks and strokes in the 20s and 30s have also become very common. In the olden days, in my village, typical deaths used to happen during childbirth, drowning in ponds and rivers, and snakebites. Every family used to have 4 to 12 children, and it was common that 2 or 3 die of snakebites and drowning before reaching 10. Now with most snakes killed, no more swimming in rivers, having only 2 children and so much special care given to them, child death reduced considerably, hence the average life increased to around the 70s. Most deaths happen due to heart attacks, strokes, and diabetes. Very few survive after 80s. Almost 50% of the population die by 60s and 70s.

Panela is not palm sugar. It is made from the same sugar cane in the whole of Asia. It is mostly organic but while making they add hydrose, a chemical to oxidize the natural colour which ranges between dark brown and brown to derive a lighter brownish yellow colour. The process is mostly clean since sugar cane juice has to be consumed quickly otherwise it will ferment into ethyl alcohol. In India, you get fresh sugarcane juice in a number of places on the street laced with lemon and ginger to avoid fermentation. It is certainly better than cola drinks having phosphoric acid, synthetic colours and what not. In a sugar factory, the same sugar cane juice is crystalized into sugar after bleaching with phosphoric acid. To put rightly no insect touches sugar except ants but cane organic say hand made sugar or panela is a feast for many living creatures from tiny insects to giant elephant. In ayurveda Indian medicine system it is also the base and it avoids the use of alcohol as a solvent for organic herbs. There is also palm sugar taken from the juice extracted from Palmyrah tress in southern India in a similar manner. That has much more nutrients and is a medicine as well. That is entirely different product. These are daily use products in India before Brits introduced processed cane sugar. The oldest sweet recipe of the world is a Hindu/Jain Halwa made from this organic jaggery almost 2000 plus years old offering to the Gods
