Frequently asked

Is farina the same as garri?

They are both cassava-based but processed differently. Garri is roasted and granular — eaten dry or used for eba swallow. Farina is an unroasted, finely milled meal used primarily for smooth fufu swallow.

Is it gluten-free?

Yes — cassava is naturally gluten-free. Check the pack for cross-contamination information.
