do you know the difference between sweet potato and cassava?

@Ineeddentures Where's "here"? If in the USA, we have access to everything but it may depend on where exactly you're located. I live in the suburbs of the Tri-state area (East Coast). So "ethnic" items might not be available in my area. But I do know where to get it not that far away from where I live which I have to do sometimes for the kind of food I like. My background is Caribbean

It tastes bland and a little sweet, so we can add a little salt. Indeed, this cassava cannot be exported to countries that take more than two days to reach their destination because if it doesn't reach its destination on time, the cassava will be wasted.

@TishaMears I am in Scotland And in America you don't have access to everything., trust me, at least not a non senile incontinent President. Isn't America all ethnic given where y,all came from , white, black etc etc Europe and Africa and Asia lol

@Wrexxo Though l know what a cassava is, I've never had it

It is not easy to process cassava because the flesh has to be at a very hot temperature so that it can be eaten by people of all ages.

@TishaMears we use it to make garri here And so many other things

The cooking process takes a very long time so that very few people are patient except for traders.

@AmbiePam I do but I've never tasted a cassava

For cassava the first try made my teeth hurt, but the next try, when I held it, it melted and I could swallow it straight away.

If we buy them, cassava and sweet potatoes only have a shelf life of three days. If left uneaten, they will turn blue and become unfit for consumption.

Most Indonesia peoples like cassava, but cooking it requires patience because cassava is very hard.

Potatoes are easier to peel than cassava, I may like them all but when it comes to cooking I prefer any type of potato.
