How can u prevent it from spoiling quickly

You can increase the shelf life by digging a shallow hole and burying it. But ensure you water it daily

Hi, with the growing price of rice, things don't seem to be cheap and eating rice would take much from one's earnings.

The unfortunate flood stories on frontpage and also increase in price of rice is worrisome, but man must survive.

I remember the time I used to buy spaghetti and hardly use rice. But one thing led to the other and the price of spaghetti increased and I was forced to look for alternative, and had to resort to rice because it was cheaper then.

Now same rice is increasing in price, what food would you suggest should be used to replace rice based on cost.

See how Buhari has made Nigerians now using calculator, permutations and tumbu-tumbu to calculate cost savings on food.

If am reading peoples pain under this government, e dey vex me I swear. Apc need to pay for every darm harm dey have done to this nation. I swear

People dying everyday just because of bad government

Price of food is not for the people again. And what buhari apc that tinubu brought into power has to say was that people should go and farm.
Tinubu him self need to step down coz he has nothing to offer to the people. Simple

Apc is the worse party in the history.

Give me gun and I will shoot every darm stupid person that has no conscience than supporting this evil government.
Apc need to be stop now

Trust me crown is far far better than golden penny,

I was a golden penny addict, mid this year a friend told me to try it and I did, it was fantastic then I bought golden penny last time Chai, the thing has reduced in size , e no dey swell again angry, I cooked more quantity than I would normally.

I quickly bought crown back this past week. I dunno why golden penny reduced their quality.

Just try it. You will testify wink


Hmm okay ooo anyway the bolded is why I call you the plantain lady, you too like dodo abeg. cheesy
Golden penny has a better taste, doesn't turn mushy and doesn't spoil quickly, it's no. 1 in the spaghetti category.

My gas just finish untop beans matter embarassed


After picking your beans soak it in water all through the night. Then start cooking it in the morning. After the first water dries up change the water and add new one. Add plenty onions. That's the strategy to cook beans.

I cook beans alot without depleting my gas. I have been using my 12.5kg gas for over 4months now.
