Ijebu Garri/Gari 5 lb / 80 oz bag by HATF's Shepherd's Natural, 100% All Natural - SAND-FREE - AUTHENTIC TASTE - FOR EBA - NO PRESERVATIVES - GLUTEN-FREE

No issues with packaging, husband was very happy with product. Will buy again in the 10 lb portion instead of 5 lb.

Was skeptical after reading the reviews but decided to try it. Overall, I was pleased with the product. Pros: Package: The package has been upgraded to a sturdier white bag. No spills at all and it was shipped by Amazon in a lightly padded envelope. Taste: The taste was a pleasant surprise. Definitely Ijebu/Egba garri. The real deal for soaking or cooking. Cleanliness: super clean. No black bits or stones Cons: Grain size: The garri is coarse, typical of the garri you find at many African stores in the US. This wasn’t an issue for me because it was an easy fix. I popped it in my food processor/blender for like 5 minutes and grinded it down to a grain size I prefer. Overall, the taste made me give it a full five stars. I only get this taste level when my Mum buys it herself in Nigeria.

It’s neat and free of dirts. Taste is okay too. But doesn’t taste very much like the garri Ijebu. It’s worth the buy!

I was surprised to find Garri on Amazon. I don’t know of any stores near me that carry it or Fufu powder. Haven’t had eba or fufu in too long and after I found Nerrido stew on Amazon I realized with a bit of meat and some okra I could have a nice soup for either one. It reminds me of my mom and dad’s cooking. So glad I found it.

Good but this was definitely not sand free, the first one I bought was, not this one.
