All of us who have ever had you already knew that you are delicious, but nice to have that fact recognized far and wide.

Cassava vying for UNESCO recognition

The staple food for nearly a billion people around the world, cassava, also known as yuca, is enjoying a renaissance here thanks to its gluten and nut-free flour that is used to produce kasav or cassava bread, a popular flatbread of the region’s original Arawak population that until recently was considered poor people’s food in Haiti.
