The last time i bought it, i thought one can eat it raw. My experience wasn't that too good. My wife was laughing at me for assuming that I was just like any other garden eggs that we have over here. Since then i did not buy it again although i see it every day.
Well, now that you have educated me on its importance of it's health benefits, i guess i and my wife will have to find a way of including the eggplant in our daily sustenance.
Thank you for sharing useful information.
