Fufu has also been known to hold the stomach from hunger for a very long time. Which explains why many African men with jobs that involves vigorous activities tend to eat it before leaving home for work in the morning.
Another fascinating thing about fufu is that it is eaten with bare hands. That means no spoons or forks are really needed. It is eaten by moulding small balls of the fufu with the finger, and then dipping into the soup accompaning it. There are numerous African restaurants that can give you this priceless experience.
