tpia@: The white as well as green variants of garden eggs. I have hoped and maybe prayed that they and carrots will not induce cough in me- to no avail. Somebody said chilled water, I am not supposed to drink that too or any chilled stuff- Or I get a cough. |

Tgirl4real: I suspected that is what you were driving at. What I love about Akpu, it is like medicine. It can help a person dying of exhaustion gain strength rapidly. It goes well with vegetable soups too. |

tpia@:Fufu ni o... |
Re: Why Do People Love Roasted Corn? by maclatunji: 10:14pm On Jun 30, 2012 |
tpia@: Not just any fufu, the pounded type. |
Re: Why Do People Love Roasted Corn? by tpia5: 10:54pm On Jun 30, 2012 |
sunnshyn: maclatunji: i thought it was fufu, wasnt sure. |
Re: Why Do People Love Roasted Corn? by Tgirl4real(f): 12:22am On Jul 01, 2012 |
What's the difference between fufu and starch? |
Re: Why Do People Love Roasted Corn? by tpia5: 2:51am On Jul 01, 2012 |
fufu is made from fermented cassava while starch isnt. I suppose starch is also made from cassava but I'm not sure. it doesnt really taste like cassava. |

Just remind me of how i eat opkorkiyor corn last year, since then i ve not eating any corn. Let me share this story. Last year as i was heading home, a met some women where they sell corns. Before i could say how much una they sell corn, one of the women just pick out one corn and started peeling it, my piken how much corn u wan buy na two 50naira. When she finish peeling the two, oh gosh it was a premature corn just little seeds on it, i was like madam this ur corn i nor like am, i nor go fit carry am. She just look me with bad eye and bring out one small corn to add to it but after peeling it she just put okporliyor, on notice that i just laugh inside my mind. She gave me the three corn. As i was going i said to myself i must eat this okporkiyor corn i want to see the power of that woman. I was very anoyed so i want her to knw say i pass her, then God said to me my son if you must eat that okpokiyor corn then throw away one from it you cannot eat the three, then i said thank you Lord. So I drop the best corn down. Then i eat air out of the okpokiyor corn and the other one. On getting home i didn't eat anything to it, i just sleept off but at about 12midnight i woke up and started voming the corn, the corn didn't degest. I give God the glory. |

Re: Why Do People Love Roasted Corn? by edogram1(m): 1:45pm On Jul 04, 2012 |
Which region are u from? Opkokiyor is a slangs in South. Opkokiyor is spiritual poison. |

She transfer it from her eye. Its a spiritual thing. U can't notice if u are not conscious or see spiritually. Opkorkiyor going with free meal or jara. Its free u don't buy it |

The disadvantage @maclatunji didn't mention was the link to cancer due to the use of CHARCOAL. A health expert said this too some years ago and I was like "hmmmmmm". The same reason boli (roasted plantain) or roasted yam ain't encouraged. Well, I do eat it once in a blue moon (e'thing in moderation) and I like 'em not too black/roasted (or even black at all sef). |

The same reason boli (roasted plantain) or roasted yam ain't encouraged. I can't mention what I don't know about. I know smoke is dangerous and maybe carcinogenic but I didn't think about it in relation to roasting corn or plantain. I am more concerned about inhaling generator fumes in regard to cancer! |
