What do you mean? undecided

Since I have known soya milk

I only see people take it for refreshment
Never seen it being used for cereal, tea or garri


We usually know dairy milk as milk

Probably because it isn't being marketed as a milk alternative or the quality doesn't allow for it to be effectively sold as such. undecided

Yeah

I think it's about packaging

Because in quality, there's not much difference

Kunu has much protein and it has the capacity to fill the tummy unlike milk

The kunu made from millet has a lot of protein, infact its basically protein

I don't understand. Milk has proteins and is also filling too. undecided

A glass of milk is also considered filling too. undecided

Nigerian cow milk is not the same as foreign

I hope u know we have local peak milk and Holland peak milk

Holland peak milk is better and costs more than Nigerian peak milk

But then I do drink raw cow milk, I don't think it's better than kunnu, both Aya and millet
The best thing is that it's not dilluted, it's sweeter and fresher than canned milk, it's more filling just like kunu

Raw milk is almost the same as kunnu

Only thing is that it's fresher, pure and natural

So, maybe you are right that repackaging along with better marketing is what Kunnu needs.b undecided

I really think so

But I prefer the way it is

Packaging might mean the addition of chemicals and additives

Infact let every street or home make theirs

No difference. Why Holland is costly is largely due to the exchange rate coupled with the fact that it will be taxed since it's imported.

That is the normal kunu made with millet or something

The other type is kunu Aya

Aya means tiger nuts

So there are two types of kunnu
The one u drank (very common) and kunu Aya

There are about 5 types of Kunu.
Kunu jeda (groundnuts)
Kunu jigafa or so (rice)
Kunu Aya (tiger nuts)
And others I have forgotten
Usually, the Kunu jeda is a combination of groundnuts and rice (my daily breakfast with okpa); I used to prepare the Kunu myself... Courtesy of my then roommate from Borno.
Some class of Kunu, you cook overnight but not the brukutu own.
I used to drink all while serving in Taraba state

Make your choice
They are the same even though the dried ones are sweeter. Just soak the dried ones and it 'blossoms' back
I think we need to give kudos to the Northerners for their preservation and processing methods

I do think Kunu is just kunu.
While I was in NYSC camp in Kaduna, I do drink Kunu sold by some Fulani women.

Kudos to the North

We call it AYA - not the address in Abuja ohh
a single word, not an acronym

That's how it's called and pronounced
Very nutritious indeed

Of course.
Kunu is a general name. Then attached to the "Kunu" are names of the source.

For example, Kunu jeda, is Kunu made from groundnuts.
I hope you are not referring to the raw cow milk that Fulani women do sell...that they usually stir it before pouring a portion into small plates for their customers, especially in the camps. That one is not Kunu. I have forgotten the name.
