    Why  is  Rolex famous  among University “Chaps”

    A recipe of eggs, cabbage, chapatti, tomatoes, and onions combined,  sprung up from the eastern part of the country later to become famous among university students as a cheap fast food referred to as “Rolex”.

    Why the Rolex? The delicacy is rich in nutrients and the whole meal is affordable to students who needed a quick meal because of time and budget limitations.

    According to Sarah Muitta Magoola, a nutritionist with International Hospital, Kampala and Mengo Hospital, Rolex is a complete meal. ‘Rolex has protein from the eggs, starch from the wheat chapatti while cabbage and tomatoes provide vitamins and minerals.

    However, the fact that both the egg and the chapatti are fried means that the oil content is on the high side. The flour in the chapatti is a refined grain, which when consumed regularly and in big amounts could cause constipation.

    Usually, people use two to three eggs in the Rolex and that is too much. If you are eating a Rolex every day, it should only have one egg.

    If you are active, some protein is converted into glucose, which is broken into energy. If this glucose is not being used, it is deposited as fat thus leading to weight gain.

    According to the Daily Monitor, Uganda recently set a Guinness Book of records for the largest locally made Rolex weighing 204.
