The missionaries introduced us to pap.  It is pronounced “pop”.  The people in the townships eat this a lot because it is filling and cheap.  It really isn’t bad.  It is corn meal cooked to a glue-like substance and let it cool.  You eat it with your fingers.  Take a blob and then dip it into a gravy-like broth and eat.  We only had cream of mushroom soup, but we were able to get the idea.

  1. When we do our school unit on Africa I'll have to try this. Doesn't sound so bad... definitely better than chicken feet and heads. :}
