Yado African & Caribbean Market brings you this authentic, high-quality staple so you can rediscover the dishes and memories that make home feel close.

Cultural Story

In Yoruba households and communities across West Africa, Ijebu gari is more than food — it’s heritage. Many of us remember soaking gari in cold water after school, adding sugar, groundnuts, or coconut for the perfect refreshing snack. Others recall evenings when the entire family gathered around bowls of hot eba served with okra, egusi, or vegetable soup. Ijebu gari’s distinct sourness and fine texture made it a favorite passed down through generations. Whether prepared quickly during busy days or used to create hearty meals for visitors, Ijebu gari symbolized simplicity, comfort, and togetherness. Today, Ijebu Gari 5LB keeps those traditions alive, offering the same authentic taste we grew up loving.
