As a Nigeria, you might have heard people saying that when someone drinks garri, it means the person is poor and rached.

For example, people tend to laugh at those that soaks garri.

But that isn't the case.

So today I've compiled pics that will make you think twice before branding soaking or drinking of garri, a "poverty food"

@bold; what do you mean by "rached"?? I guess you meant "Wretched"

Dry garri just mixed with a dash of palm oil, salt and pepper can be nice. It was a childhood like of mine.
- especially those new, very dry, crispy, sharp-grained, tangy garri, yum.
