Me, I have not eaten bread for a long time now. I abandon it when the price keeps skyrocketing. I can't come and kill myself. Money to buy a good quantity of garri will just go for one loaf of bread. Unfortunately the challenge is when u have kids, you cant just do without bread for a household with kids 2 Likes |

OBJ encouraged Nigerians to plant more Cassava and support Cassava Flour to make bread. Wheat is not a Nigerian crop. We have our own local crops- Cassava, Guinea Corn, Millet etc and flour can be derived from these crops. We refused to listen to those pushing for Cassava Bread. Besides, Nigerians are very greedy. Even if Cassava flour becomes widely available in Nigeria, bread prices will still increase. We are at the mercy of increase in bread prices because we import wheat |

Redman44:Oga, bread is made from wheat worldwide and not from cassava flour. Call the cassava-bread like product what ever but bread made from wheat! Seems some of us have started to resign our fate to cassava, agbado, garri with learning how to clean, cock and shoot gun. Anyway it will never be our portion IJN. |

nedekid:. Sir, have you eaten Cassava bread before? Wheat flour has become expensive, so what should we do? We should look inwards and find alternatives to wheat flour. We have our own local grains that we can use as composite flour along with wheat flour to make bread : 70 to 30 % ratio. Cassava flour at 100% level can be used to make acceptable bread. In India, they make bread with Sorghum ( Guinea Corn ) and Millet. They call it Rotti or something . A flat kind of bread . Wheat is not a Nigerian local crop and that is why it is costly. Our local grains are not costly. We need to be more innovative in Nigeria. Acceptable bread can be made from Maize. Cheers. 2 Likes |

Redman44:I get your point. Basically we should cut our cloth to our size. Use our local ingredients to make our bread. Fair enough. My issue with that is that we are used to eating our kind of bread which is made of wheat. Yes, Nigeria does not produce wheat, and so also 80% of other countries in the world. They import. Roti or what I call tandoori is primarily made from wheat in India, Middle East and lots of other places. You only find a little percentage made from other grains as you rightly said, possibly in some village settings. But primarily from wheat. I know cause I eat tandoori once in a while at restaurants with curry. Anyway, my point is that due to lack caused by mismanagement, Nigerians should not have their standard of living destroyed. It has been attempted before and Nigerians rejected it. Ie mixing wheat with other grains to make bread. Heck they even tried it with soya milk as a replacement for cow milk! Nigerians rejected that crap! I remember during nysc days in the 90s, monies released for milk they will rather buy soya milk to give is to add to tea, papa etc. Omo, we rejected it! They said it was healthier, we said rather if we are sick we would go to hospital and treat ourselves, give us MILK! Do you think buhari and his kids, Tinubu and his puppies etc will ever say because country has no money they will manage and eat cassava bread, laced with millet and some other crap? Naa, they will eat bread made from the finest wheat, joined with the finest cheese from the south of France. SO WILL WE TOO!! In answering your question, I have never eaten cassava bread, but if we want to bake something made with cassava and call it a food name, OK, but no be bread. No moni no moni, Niger Republic asked for as stance from Nigeria to buy vehicles for moving vips, our usless gifted them 10 brand new Toyota landcruiser jeeps at ₦1.4b!. No monie no monie even for ASUU or to build refinary, but our gov took "loan" of $3.4b to build train line to maradi in another country. Bros Bros, Nigerians should not be made to eat agbado, cassava, ewa, garri because of some other people's wickedness and incompetence! |

Immediately the increase of dollar was announced few days ago, the prices of foodstuffs and other items began to go extortionate; onions, indomie, bread and groundnuts, petrol and even services. The most annoying part is that salaries still remain the same and they are not steady. That is just how much decay a visionless government has plunged Nigeria and her citizens into. |

nedekid: Millet and Sorghum are not crap grains. Too much wheat is not even good for the body. We look down on Sorghum ( Guinea Corn ), Millet and our other local grains as crap because we don't promote them. And there is nothing wrong with soya milk. It is plant based milk. The cow milk you are talking about is not the milk that comes from the cow directly. They have added sugar and other things to it in the milk or dairy factory to make it sweeter. Cow milk has a different taste to the milks packaged as Peak, Dano, Cowbell etc. Indian roti bread is made primarily with sorghum or millet. Millet and Sorghum have nutrients that are good for our body. They have fiber, carbohydrates etc .Wheat is not our local grain. This is why it is expensive. We must start start welcoming bread made from our local grains and cassava. Cheers. 1 Like 1 Share |

nedekid: It will only take some time, but people will gradually warm up to Cassava Bread and bread made from our local grains. We have to start making that paradigm shift food wise now. It is now or never. My wife is a cake maker. By next week, I am going to tell her to make sorghum-wheat bread for us to eat. Then we will try cassava bread next month. We will bake the cassava bread ourselves with cassava flour. We are not planting enough wheat in Nigeria. Cheers. 1 Like |
