World Clean Corner Day

Mokolo ya Makoso

The Congolese caterpillar, the protein that makes foreigners squirm and locals salivate. Fried with onions and tomatoes, served with fufu or chikwanga, makoso is the bushmeat that requires no hunting, just luck and good eyes. Every Congolese person who has lived abroad dreams about makoso the way French people dream about cheese.
