People both local and foreign visitors to Pakistan must have seen the general population of pakistan waking up every morning and doing the breakfast with a kind of oily bread fried on a large open pan...commonly know as Paratha all across the country....commercially it is made out of sifted flour ...but some household even prefer the ordinary flour(ata)...which is grinned wheat...the dough is flattened and put on the frying pan in hot oil....it smells wonderful and taste good. Pakistani's eat it with egg omelets, butter, cream, honey or just as it is....and love to have tea to drown it or lassi (yogurt shake) or milk....before Musharraf taking over power a normal sized Paratha cost Rs 4/- at any road side resturant anywhere in the far and wide of the county...today its about Rs 16/- four time more....
People in Pakistan today wake up every morning to have that same paratha and for the first time in the history of Pakistan-US relations are unified in hating the United States Of America..
