I’m very disappointed in what was sent to me after I ordered. I have been looking for cassava leaf near me for a long time. I usually drive to silver spring to get it. (Sweet sweet kitchen) I ordered through their website and they sent me a container full of OIL. Barely any cassava. The meat was so TOUGH. I could barely chew it. This was completely unhealthy and unacceptable. $47 for a container full of OIL!!!

You people told me the kitchen give suspect so I stood on the side and watch them put m
