[b]Igbo men consume 90% of the whole cassava planted in Nigeria. [/b]Why? Do they know the amount of calories one pound of akpu contains?. Cassava is one food God used to bless poor Africa because it grows from planting the stem alone unlike yams, cocoyam, potatoes etc but the way igbo men consume it, there is still scarcity of cassava to go round in Nigeria. Why igbo women dey fear to choppam still beats me.  Especially igbos from Anambra, Delta and  Enugu states are the highest akpu eating creatures on earth . Umu nna m, wetin una see for cassava?

~Sissy~:



how did u come to this conclusion.

honeric01:

Amala black or amala white?

sugabelle:

black of course, what do u think? . . . .But let's not start bc we'd have to put up a whole new thread for amala. This is the foofoo thread, remember

honeric01:

Lol,  foofoo? what is that? you meant fufu  well, i like both type of AMALA,  when the soup is put in the same plate with the amala,  draw soup is the best for amala

sugabelle:

chop knuckle, u know what's up. . For real, amala is d best when it comes to swallows, topped and swimming in serious ewedu or like u said, draw soup . This foolfool( i mean fufu, lol) is some dangerous ish, the smell and consistency na health hazard. But let's round up here, amala deserves a whole new topic, make we no spoil mr. akpu's runs.

spikedcylinder:

See them "chopping knuckle" because of food.

Hmmm. . . . Argumentative over food? It was just a light jibber jabber, no need to get riled up over anything.

honeric01:

lol, The shortest shortcut to a man's stomach is where?

oya answer


I am not even Yoruba, but i eat almost all Nigerian cuisine,  except some extremely difficult ones to swallow

sugabelle:

u never go work? . Chop knuckle one more time, and speaking of chopping, last time I checked, this is the food section, so carry go jo. henrico, meet u at Mama Kass . . .

each time i end up eating fufu, i tend to be as heavy as an elephant in a human skin.

ok, we will continue that another time,

i need to head to work to make some dough!!!

chop knuckle, u know what's up. Grin. For real, amala is d best when it comes to swallows, topped and swimming in serious ewedu or like u said, draw soup Cheesy. This foolfool( i mean fufu, lol) i[b]s some dangerous ish, the smell and consistency na health hazard[/b]. But let's round up here, amala deserves a whole new topic, make we no spoil mr. akpu's runs.

Starch and palm kernel soup coupled with dried fish or maybe pounded yam egusi soup with some wicked fresh fish will do me,



don't have time for apku with the wicked scent that goes with it.

Aloy.Emeka:

Why is akpu more of a health hazard than amala or alubo?. History have shown that people get food poisoning from any mud they dessicate. Dried akpu powder is more dangerous than the wet ones. How many families have you heard that died in Nigeria after a meal of akpu, it's always some dessicated food that poisons them.

Aloy.Emeka:

Reduce the quantity you swallow. That is the major issue with us Africans. You don't need to swallow the balls until your gut is full. Use water and vegetable to fill the empty spaces.

Aloy.Emeka:

Starch is Benin and Urhobo delicacy. You have to be very careful on the way you prepare it before you poison yourself with cyanide. I usually don't eat starch from anybody except if it was prepared by an urhobo or Benin woman because they know the science and how to make it cyanide free. Palm kernel soup is called Banga. na cholesterol power house be that but I likam die.

Aloy.Emeka:

Spikecylinder wan kill igbo men here with correct delicacy. Dem use akpu do juju for igbo men oh.

You no be Igbo? Didn't you see the Big Stout I added for you?

Stop that, you want to tell me how i should consume my fufu abi i eat according to what i have to do, i am a man and men always eat to their fullest okay?

my brother, one ball of fufu is equal to four balls of amala, true talk

Aloy.Emeka:

How did you draw this inference. Remember that amala is made from dried yam or plantains and I don't think that yams have less calories than cassava. It's the method of preparation that determines the calorie content in most cases. Akpu has more carbs than garri but they are both from the same parent source. So if you want to compare akpu in terms of carbs, compare it with pounded yam freshly prepared. One good thing about akpu is it's smoothness and freshness and that is the only beauty it has.
