Let's talk about something we all eat but rarely think about.
GARRI.
Not all garri is created equal — and if you've ever bitten into a stone while eating eba or soaking garri, you already know the struggle.
Here's what you need to know about stones-free garri:
What is stones-free garri?
It is garri that has been carefully processed and sorted to remove every trace of sand, stones and impurities before it gets to your kitchen.
Why it matters:
-Protects your teeth — chewing stones damages enamel over time
-Better texture — smoother eba, cleaner taste
-Safer for children — no risk of broken teeth or swallowing debris
-Better for the elderly — especially those with dental concerns
-Peace of mind — eat without fear of what's hiding in your bowl
Signs your garri has stones:
-Gritty feeling when you rub it between your fingers
-Sandy residue at the bottom when soaked in water
-Uneven texture when making eba
How to check before buying:
-Rub a small handful between your palms — it should feel smooth and even
-Soak a little in water and check the bottom for sediment
-Buy from a trusted source that prioritises quality
At BSOM Foods we don't just pick garri — we pick the RIGHT garri. Stones-free, fresh and sorted just for you.
Because what goes into your pot matters.
