What about the sweat, saliva and nasal droplets that enter the food from the fufu-pounder?
Add the dirty finger of the woman turning the food.

No food is bad. What makes a food bad when it's prepared under unhygienic conditions. Fufu can't be bad once it's prepared under hygienic conditions.

It may interest you to know that the white man Pastor Otabil talks about also uses his hands to eat and enjoy Ghanaian fufu and even drinks light soup from our local p"apotoyewaa". Please let us stop deceiving our local people. It kills business, it discourages people to enjoy their delicacies. What scientific research has Otabil done to show that people die because of eating with their hands? When did Otabil start using cutlary sets? Please, please, Otabil should give us a break.

Such rubbish talk, no matter who it emanates from, deserves only one thing and that is to ignore it and assign it to the dust bin of history! Fufu is a dish like any from around the world which will be modified by well meaning Africans, whether Chefs or otherwise, as is already being done by those of us living in the West or outside Africa who don't have access to the mortar and pestle this backward minded is talking about. Fufu powder is already available in Ghana which I use when I visit home or I can also use the raw ingredients which I can mash with water in my blender and knead in my microwave oven, also available in Ghana. So Mr out of touch Pastor you were completely off the mark on this one!

Otabil did not go wrong. You all took his comments out of context. He was proving a point that eating with your fingers is not hygienic. He did not say fufu is not good. I understand where you guys are coming from but he was trying to make a point that culture is dynamic and as people we change our culture to match our current time in order to meet the international standards in everything we do. Ghanaians fear change, and that's why we are behind in everything.

We are behind in everything because of bad leadership and not what we eat or how we eat it.

Stop this Asante nonsense which is not bigger than the whole Akan tribe of families.In case your "befuddled brain" doesn"t know who the Akans are, use this as your permanent guide.
Akans...in Ghana. Brong.Ahafo,Fante,Akyem, Sefwi,Ahanta, Akuapem,Akwammu,Wassa, Asante,Nzema,Aowin,Kwahu and a host of others.And in the Ivory Coast, Agni,Baoule,Sanwi and Chakosi.
Asante"s did not come up with the concept of Fufu. Never Ever! It is an Akan thing!

Where's the name of the writer? You keep stealing articles and you don't want to add details of the source. Are you crazy? Only in Ghana you do this nonsense, because people don't fight for their rights.
