please rest this Akara stuff.Akara is made up of 98% beans and during the slave trade era yoruba people never engaged in beans cultivation even till date.the cultivation
of beans,groundnut, maize etc are majorly northern nigerian and meddle belt crops.i am not saying that the Yorubas doesn't have
foods persay but those foods you are mentioning are borrowed foods just like foods like rice, spaghetti, macaroni, suya, indomie, bread, potatoes etc are all borrowed foods,

Which kind of nonsense capping is this. Yoruba people that have been growing ewa oloyin before you were born are the ones that did not engage in beans cultivation.

You have google on your phone, it wont take you anything to learn who the originators of Akara and Moin moin are. Even if you can't read articles, atleast check wikipedia and educate yourself. Yoruba slaves taken to Brazil, took their culinary skills with them the same way they took their Gods and culture.

Akara or acaraje as the Brazilians call it originated from within the afro Brazilians in Brazil, same Yoruba majority afro Brazilians that took their culture with them.

Moreover akara is not exclusive to Brazil alone; it is found all over Togo, benin, Caribbean and other places where the Yoruba culture has reached.

And the only reason the Saharan states are the highest producer of beans is because of how arable and good their land is for it cultivation, it does not mean the Yorubas never cultivated beans pre colonisation.

We are unNigerialising every of our culture and Yorubalising it just as it was meant to be

They are just stupid people. None of them read agricultural science or know anything about history.

All there best meal from Akara, Moin Moin, Egusi, Eba, etc all have origin from yorubas

Remember not all beans can be used for Akara,just like the Igbos have akidi(kidney beans)

Yes I know.

delpee:


Yes I know.

Kidney Beans does not make Akara neither does it grow in the south. Maybe green beans

Haa. That one is Iyán gbere (e with undermark). It can draw for Africa and it's delicious.

It's sad we have neglected our foods for too long.
Rice is the major cause.
