If its not Pounded Yam it can never be Pounded yam.
Pounded yam has always been my best food but since when Ayo farms and the rest came out with the chinko (substandard) of my best meal I decided to go low.

I only eat pounded at restaurants I know they do it the traditionally by actually pounding the yam. Why will I be eat a fake of something.

I actually posted a couple of weeks back enquiring where I can get affordable yam pounder.

Pounded yam is better because it is fresher than the former.

maybe it's because i'm a guy, but i don't care if it's pounded, or poundo, or rambo yam, even lando yam. I probably won't notice the difference! As long as i'm not hungry anymore, the both are ok!

Pounded yam and comparing it with poundo yam is like comparing death and sleep. I have had poundo in recent times due to its availability but of a truth, I do not like it at all and so I prefer to eat eba instead when I have to take a solid meal.

Re: Poundo Yam Or Pounded Yam? by jingoma(m): 1:23am On Mar 02, 2012
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but POUNDO yam does not contain ANY yam at all in fact it is made with mainly potatoes and other preservatives!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Poundo Yam Or Pounded Yam? by tpia5: 1:45am On Mar 02, 2012
True that.

Also the reason why poundo is so heavy in calories.
Re: Poundo Yam Or Pounded Yam? by Nobody: 1:47am On Mar 02, 2012
I've never heard of poundo yam.

Pounded yam na the koko in my household.
Re: Poundo Yam Or Pounded Yam? by aribisala0(m): 2:23am On Mar 02, 2012
I agree that Poundo is mainly potato,Starch,preservatives and decaking chemicals. Some of these chemicals are toxic and even carcinogenic.

because African foods in the Uk are in a sort of "Black" market no one regulates these products properly to check they are really safe!!


In belgium they eat something called puree which is a blend of potato flour etc

Actually they are quite Nice but need to be monitored people can be unscrupulous and pack all sorts in the name of "BUSINESS"


Anyway there was a Yam Pounder machine by National in the 80s I have an Uncle who got one as a retirement present and he still has it .

Brings it out once a year!
It cooks the yam and pounds it too. It is Perfect! It is not possible to have smoother pounded yam,
Anyway National discontinued it .I think it was too expensive Over Naira100 and they must have lost money.

National Yam Pounder
SD 2100Y

It is roughly the size of a large Microwave oven and you can see it on Google.
If someone could persuade them to make it again or sell the patent it might be worthwhile who knows.
And with Technology these days I am sure further improvements can me made(it was produced in the 80s) e.g It does not allow you introduce boiled yam it has to do a full cycle of Boil and then pound .Though at that point you could add some boiled yam but that is pointless.
to answer your question

There is no comparison to well pounded yam.
But recently i discovered you can blend Oats fine,cook it normally and let it setand it is quite nice !better than poundo

Re: Poundo Yam Or Pounded Yam? by shumno(f): 9:38am On Mar 02, 2012
Pounded yam tastes like freshly cooked yam and better than pounds yam which is dry yam, but if you can't pound like me because we only eat corn powder (tuwo) where I come from you can always manage pounds yam powder.
Re: Poundo Yam Or Pounded Yam? by beespak7(m): 9:58am On Mar 02, 2012
Pounded yam all the way , pounded yam is fresh,  the aroma and texture if well pounded is wonderfull. Poundo yam is artificial dry and with lots of chemicals, nothing beats freshly pounded yam with thick egusi and asorted meat.
