[color=soyouquotedme]I spent my christmas celebration in Aso Rock, guess what, I ate cassava bread on christmas eve.

You all have been eating cassava bread (and biscuits, gala, other confectionaries) since the middle of last year. The policy is that at least 10% of bread and confectionaries should be replaced by cassava flour, but trust our bakeries who are trying to save cost, they sometimes mix their wheat flour with close to 30% cassava flour. Even the wheat you buy in the market for home use is already mixed.

You will notice the unplesant after taste of most biscuits, sausage roll(gala) and even bread sold today. You will also notice that most bread in the market is very crumbly and spoils within one or two days after purchase. To make matters worse, my wife always get constipation after eating some brands of bread which never use to happen before. We suspect it is due to too much cassava flour.

So almost everybody buying bread in Nigeria has already consumed cassava bread.

I don't like it at all.

Cassava wetin? didn't you hear the flood swept away all the cassava planted in Nigeria?

LOL. Are you guys expecting to see loaves of bread with "cassava bread" labels on them?
We've all been eating bread with some percentage of cassava flour in it.

honeric01: Cassava wetin? didn't you hear the flood swept away all the cassava planted in Nigeria?

was it available even before the flood

Must we wait for the FG to produce them for us, Nigerian barkers and investors should see this as a gold mine.

Cassava ni, cocoyam ko

nope

Which one be cassava bread

Dhelake: was it available even before the flood

Then they just used 10 billion to plant them.

Guys belive me when i tell you that you dont want to taste the bread talkless eat it . Its too taskeless and saltylike tasting . I ate the bread around 4 years ago when normal flour was scarce .

have tasted it and its nice
