Okay.

I appreciate so much

It's a northern snack that's the rice equivalent of "akara beans". It's quite tasty, when made with sugar. But I never did have the palates for it while in the North. I ate that thing on about just three occasions, but with suya.

A tuber of yam in 2010 wasn't above N100. A bag of rice was N3,500, a Carton of indomine was less than 1k.

How much do you thing masa was. Besides they used their hands to squeeze into the boiling oil, they weren't picking it up like akara and puff puff with spoons. This one was squeezed with hands so it was much smaller and cheaper as well.

These are the common utensils for masa generally in the North although they can be made from different materials, the most common one are either aluminium or sand, just like those aluminium and clay pots

WAINA is it..

Waina is not Masa

Masa is from Rice mostly eaten with Suya

Waina is from maize mostly eaten with Soup

Know the difference
True

The ones in Lagos where I used to buy from weren't northerners. They were togolese. And they usually use their hands to squeeze it into the oil.

I bought this Masa for 300 naira in Kaduna. Masa is a popular Northern Nigerian Street food. Masa is made from 100% Rice. Vegitables Soup or Groundnut Soup is used to eat Masa.

Some Suya sellers also add Masa to their Customers on demand. There are two types of Masa. The one that Sugar is added and the one without Sugar.
Big liar

Oga the masa I used to eat back then was fried in oil. And they call it masa. They use mashed bananas to make it because I do see them when they do it.

Unless you're referring to another type. But the one I was buying then was fried in oil and it was called masa. I don't even know what you're arguing about.

Like I said earlier it was sold by togolese people not Nigerians. So maybe that's how they make it in their country and they called it masa.
