Today I bought one rubber of garri for 350! Can u imagine..
We need to protest more so that the price can be reduced pls!

I hope this my thread affects the price of garri in the market!

this is becoming rather silly...most of Nairalanders are adults. its not right for Seun to threaten us with ban. its like threatening to flog a student if he/she talks. People should be allowed to say what they want. This is a public forum and not a classroom. i tire for this matter o

13th page waoh.honestly ave not being dis long on nairaland (imagine since 12 noon).but its actually funny why you ave to ban .what about does that use dis phrase"ao does dis make it to the fp"are you also going to ban them.to be real, seun you need to check your mods ,cos d way silly topics actually make front page is annoing.i dont fink any topic that doesn,t make it to the fp has this thread.'[s] well ao does dis actually affect d price of garri??'[s][/s]

I want Nairalanders to share their views on how this question has become an offensive statement on threads. I started the campaign and I have served my numerous bans. Am sorry if I offended anyone. Please mods, let the people be the judge on this issue. Is it wrong to ask about the price of garri?

Re: The Price Of Garri by Seun(m): 4:03pm On Aug 31

Yes, please,

It's wrong to ask about the price of garri on a thread that has nothing to do with garri. Doing so will earn you a ban.

Thanks for your kind cooperation.

After all your long and meaningless speech just tell me now how does this really affects the price of Garri in ur area and market at large mtcheeeeeew

Seun: Yes, please,

It's wrong to ask about the price of garri on a thread that has nothing to do with garri. Doing so will earn you a ban.

Thanks for your kind cooperation.

"Doing so will earn you a ban"? This should not be coming from the Zuckerberg of Nigeria that we thought will be more tactical about issues. Asking about how a post will change the price of garri is another way of saying euphemistically, "this thread is useless" and pray, when has it become a crime to express one's opinions? Lest I forget, if Mr Seun served someone a ban on Nairaland, will that change the price of garri or bring back subsidy on petroleum products in the market?

I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our Garri nation.

Forty-eight hours ago, a great Garri comrade, initiated the Garri
Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous
activism came as a great beacon light of hope to
millions of e-Garri lovers who had been seared in
the flames of withering injustice and comments censorship. It came as a
joyous daybreak to end the long night of
captivity from trigger-happy banning mods.
I say to you today, my Garri friends, that in spite of the
difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still
have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the
Garrious dream.

I have a dream that one day this forum will rise
up and live out the true meaning of its creed:
"A forum for Nigerians and lovers of Nigeria" and by extension, GARRI!

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of
Udi, the sons of former palm-wine tappers and the sons of
Ogbmosho cocoa farmers will be able to sit down
together at a table of brotherhood demolishing basins of eba and stacks of kilishi and suya supplied by their Kano brothers.

I have a dream that one day even the state of
Borno, a desert state, sweltering with the
heat of BokoHaramism and bomb explosions, will be
transformed into an oasis of burabisko, miyan wake and tuwo shinkafa.

I have a dream that my four basins of Garri, will one
day be served to my girlfriend, where they will not be
judged by the color of the eba but by the
swelling of the belle, the content of the ofe Oha and the hours of comatose sleep induced thenceforth.

I have a dream today.

I have a dream that one day the state of
Nairaland, whose Chairman's lips are presently
dripping with the words of interposition and
bannification, will be transformed into a situation
where Ijebu Garri and Asaba Garri will be
able to jollificate with Yellow garri and be swallowed with every feeling of rhapsody and merriment accompanied by steaming dishes of ofe Owerre and jars of Tombo harvested from the palms of Ezinihitte-Mbaise.

I have a dream today.

I don't think Seun offered literature in school, the expression of how does it affect the price of garri?' is a figurative expressesion which is satirical in nature.

Seun: Yes, please,

It's wrong to ask about the price of garri on a thread that has nothing to do with garri. Doing so will earn you a ban.

Thanks for your kind cooperation.

Seun: You will not be banned for posting about garri on this garri thread.

Whole cassava tubers
Peeled cassava pieces

Garri (also known as gari, garry, or tapioca) is a popular West African food made from cassava tubers. The spelling 'garri' is mainly used in Nigeria, Cameroon, Sierra Leone and 'gari' in Ghana.[1]

Process

To make garri, cassava tubers are peeled, washed and grated or crushed to produce a mash. The mash is placed in a porous bag and allowed to ferment for one or two days, while weights are placed on the bag to press the water out. It is then sieved (or sifted) and roasted by heating in a bowl. The resulting dry granular garri can be stored for long periods. It may be pounded or ground to make a fine flour.

Eba is a stiff dough made by soaking gari in hot water and kneading it with a flat wooden baton. Kokoro is a common snack food in Nigeria made from a paste of maize flour mixed with gari and sugar and deep-fried.[2]

Garri comes in various consistencies, which can roughly be categorized into: rough, medium and smooth. Each type is used for a particular meal.

As a snack or light meal, garri can be soaked in cold water (in which case it settles to the bottom), mixed with sugar and sometimes roasted peanut, with evaporated milk sometimes added. The amount of water needed for soaked garri is 3:1. Garri can also be eaten dry without water, but with sugar and roasted peanut added.

In its dry form, garri is also a nice accompaniment for soft cooked beans and palm oil. This food mix is called Yor ke Garri in the Ga language, in Ghana. This food is usually eaten with fried plantain, commonly known as kokor. The combo is a common meal for lunch.

For a full meal, garri is usually cooked by adding to hot water and kneaded into dough. This is usually eaten with different types of stew or soup with vegetables added (plain tomato/pepper soups with vegetables such as okra added, thick, leafy vegetable stews, melon seed stews, peanut stews etc.).

Smooth garri (known as lebu to the Yoruba) can also be mixed with pepper and other spicy ingredients. A small amount of warm water and palm oil is added and mixed with the hand to soften up. This type of garri is served with fried fish. It is also served with frejon on Good Friday.
Variations

In West Africa, there are two types; "white" and "yellow" garri. The yellow garri is prepared by frying with the addition of palm oil to give it a yellow colour; while white garri is fried without palm oil. In the Western parts of Africa, yellow garri is more sought after; hence it is more expensive than the white flavour.[citation needed]

Yellow and white garri are very common all over Nigeria. A variation of white garri exists, popularly known as Ijebu-garri. This variation is produced mainly by Yourubas of Ijebu origin, in Nigeria. A great many variations exist of both white and yellow garri.

In Ghana, garri is judged by its taste and grain size. The sweeter types with finer grains are more valued over sour, large grain varieties. Commercial food vendors on the other hand prefer, coarser grains with high starch content as this yields more quantity when soaked in water. In addition, buyers often look out for crispier grains when trying to determine its freshness.

Garri can be eaten without further cooking by placing in a bowl and adding cold water; Ijebu-garri is made to have finer grains, and a pleasantly sour taste, making it very suitable for consumption in this way. Sugar or honey is sometimes added to sweeten the taste. It can also be converted into a breakfast cereal by adding powdered milk, chunks of coconut, groundnuts and cashew nuts. Most garri, however, is cooked by adding to boiling water and stirring to make a stiff paste or porridge, which among the Igbos is known as utara, and among Yorubas as eba. Utara (or eba) is normally eaten with soups, of which different kinds are available. Garri produced in the east, south-east, and middle belt Nigeria are usually of coarser texture and bland in taste. As such, many people prefer to use this type for cooking as a dough to eat with stews (as it does not change the taste of the stew). Most parts of Africa where cassava is grown have an equivalent staple dish.
