You get maku from the roots of the ikuwarra. We get it all year. We
clean under the tree before we sit down because a snake might bite us.
Then we use the crow bar to break the roots
We cut the roots in half with the crow bar and see maku inside and we
get the maku and we take it to cook on the ashes of the fire for about
15 seconds. Then we eat them. Sometimes we eat then not cooked.
Maku tastes good. It tastes like butter. For a long time, when people
used to go around with no clothes, they used to eat maku.
It is healthy and you don't feel sick. We get sick when we buy kuka
from the shop.
