\u00a0About 400 per day, or 3,000 per week. \u00a0In one year, at Soddo Christian Hospital we consume over 150,000 giant pieces of injera!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_511\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-511\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.soddo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/kitchen-staff.jpeg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-511\" alt=\"Our kitchen staff hard at work preparing the meals for the patients.\" src=\"https:\/\/www.soddo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/kitchen-staff-300x199.jpeg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-511\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Our kitchen staff hard at work preparing the meals for the patients.<\/figcaption><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever had injera?
