     Khmu food is primarily based on sticky rice and small game. Rice is served at almost every meal and they almost never buy food. What is placed on the table is what is caught either fishing or hunting. In order to preparing meat and fish, they are smoked and cooked on top of large fires located near the males huts. The men typically do the hunting and fishing, while the females collect plants and grains such as rice and mushrooms. Special foods consist of eggs and black sticky rice fro "wife-givers" (such as the mates father) and ceremonies (everyculture.com). Lastly, there is not many ingredients used in cooking. Usually the meal is simply seasoned with salt and chili (other spices may include ginger and garlic). 

**Fun fact from everyculture.com: Black rice also symbolizes safety and is carried around in a small pouch when they travel.
