Wow! You are fast in replying @simplymike!!! Hehehe! 😁

Okras are slimy. We plant it because studies shows that it is good to lower blood sugar counts. And since my dad is diabetic, we make a lot for him.

A friend visiting from America doesn't like okra because it is slimy. So we make her try okra omelette, because the egg somehow absorbs the slime, and she liked it! Others also wants their okra grilled. Hmmm, there are really a few ways of enjoying it.

Srawberry guava? I haven't heard of those yet. Can you send the unopened package to me, please? Hahaha! πŸ˜‚πŸ€­

Cassava is poisonous when cooked with its skin. That's why you need to peel them before cooking. I don't know how to describe its taste. It has a flat taste. Not too sweet but creamy, and definitely not bitter. Because of its flat taste, most people make it into sweet delicacies. Some make it into cassava cake, sweetened cassava in coconut milk, cassava rolls. But I love it plain. I'm too lazy to make it into something else. Hahaha! πŸ˜‚
