Got pictures of weird and odd foods we have in nigeria? Post it Here

1) Edible Winged termites
It goes by different names such as ; Aku "Igbo", Esunsun "Yoruba", Chinge "Hausa", Ogan , Edon doroko "Bini".
They're usually pushed out during the raining season. Termites are rich in protein and packed full of nutrients . Believe me when i say it's really tasty with a nutty flavor. They can be eaten alone as a snack or as an accompaniment to a number of savory dishes.
