Ijebu Garri – 10lb

Introduction

Sometimes, all it takes is one familiar taste to remind you of home — the food that shaped your childhood, comforted you after long days, and stayed with you wherever you moved in the world. Ijebu Garri is one of those flavors. Known for its crisp texture and signature sour tang, this 10lb bag brings you right back to the flavors and traditions that define Yoruba cuisine and West African culture. Whether you enjoy it soaked or as eba, this garri reconnects you with comfort, memory, and authentic heritage.

Cultural Story

For many Nigerians — especially in the Yoruba community — Ijebu Garri is not just food; it is culture. You may remember watching your parents spread freshly fried garri out under the sun or hearing laughter as siblings gathered to soak garri after school with cold water, sugar, groundnuts, or milk. On hot afternoons, garri soakings felt like a lifesaver, refreshing and energizing. And in the evenings, eba served with egusi, ewedu, ogbono, or okra soup brought families together around the dining table. Ijebu Garri was present in hard times, easy times, celebrations, and everyday living. Today, for Africans and Caribbeans across the diaspora, that familiar sour flavor brings back childhood, family, and the deep warmth of community.
