The Subbas are a people that resides in high altitude areas of Bhutan. The narrator tells a story of a Subba who tried to learn about paddy plantations but initially misunderstood the process of cultivation. One day this Subba was passing by a group of Bhawans - another ethnic Bhutanese people - busy with rice cultivation. He had never seen rice cultivation before; the traditional method for cultivating rice is to flood the fields while setting the young seedlings. He thought they were playing in the mud like pigs and started scolding them. After harvesting, the Bhawans prepared a meal that included rice with a delicious curry, and they invited the Subba as well. At first, he refused to eat, but they kept insisting so eventually he ate. He ate the entire dish. Afterwards, he asked how the dish was made, so the Bhawans taught him the whole process of cultivation.
