Lol even in 2015 someone is still proud of this. They say it’s called Aku in Igbo but Yorubas call it E sun sun. People kill This Termite mostly at night and fry them and They swear taste delicious. It wouldn’t have made news but a lot of people still fancy it and have been talking about it online. The only thing they do to them when killed is just to rinse them and fry!! They don’t extract anything out of it, before they fry and eat o. Hmm, do you know it? Have you tasted it before? Let's know.

We never appreciate what we have. I live in America and I tell you, the only food we eat here is French fries and sandwiches which only gives u diabetes and obesity . I am proud and happy for Amazon coz its the only site I buy Nigeria red oil and foods which my white wife and my friends learn how to cook and disturb me for more. I have search that termite food a lot of times on Amazon and can't find it. poster if I do , am gonna buy a lot of it and eat on the streets of New Jersey , who cares!!!!! I wear proud to be a Nigerian and walk around the streets. It's time we stop imitating and start living. Be proud of what u have !!!!!

Oh poster! You reminded me of this termite delicacy. No much stress in preparing, just wash, add little salt and fry but shouldn't be too dry. Had some few weeks ago. They are very delicious and taste nice.

I still have some left-over in my refrigerator at the moment. I enjoy them a whole lot
How come, is it even raining season? Interesting NEPA has made the insects extinct because they only wave around street lights after rain pour

Woman please stop being childish and see the glaring clue you have been given,if your husband can tell his lawyer to ask the Court for 6 months for the purpose of reconciliation,it means he want to reconcile with you,so please take the clue,go and reconcile with your husband instead of making matters worse by saying what you are not suppose to say publicly....you still have the chance to reconcile with your husband,but believe me if you continue talking publicly,you may finally lose the chance and you will turn around again to blame your husband for that.

Ooh my goodness! I love those insects die. They are extremely high in protein and tastes really nice. I remember those days in boarding school/hostel, we used to gather those insects with brooms under d flouriscent after rain fall. then fry them and keep for weeks. We used eat those insects with cassava flakes (garri) n sugar. When I have these, I don't bother myself with d hostel beans that's watery and full of black insects. To be honest with u, I have developed phobia for insect after leaving d country some decades ago and I don't think I can eat them anymore I know I'm missing a lot as I stand them anymore. I just wish I could turn back d hand of time. They r really nice n better than d junks and processed foods we eat here. I still eat n fancy Naija delicacies from d North, East, West and Southern parts of naija. I don't joke with them when I'm home. "No place like home" tru tru.
