Summary
Analysis
The author interrupts again to say that the adult Pi is an excellent cook, and he makes very spicy vegetarian food. The author has noted that Pi’s kitchen is very well-stocked with spare canned goods, as if preparing for a disaster.
The author gives more hints of Pi’s ordeal. Clearly Pi suffered great deprivation, as he now seems prepared for any calamity and has a special appreciation for food.
