If there's one thing that Garos love the most, it must be pumpkins. We Garos can eat pumpkin everyday of our life without getting tired of it. In fact there are umpteen number of  jokes oh how much we love their pumpkins.

Second most loved food item by not just Garos but the entire North-Eastern India must be pork. What more can one ask for when you combine both these favorites.
