The staple food of Burkina Faso include millet, rice, maize, nuts, potatoes and yams, these are normally served with vegetable, fish or meat sauce. Chicken dishes are favourite to Burkinabé and one of their most popular dish is pouletkedjenou which is a slowly cooked chicken made along with peppers and tomatoes. With the hot days of the country, the milk spoils fairly quick and so yogurt and sour milk also form a part of regular diet. Gapalo-sour milk with millet grains is a popular drink consumed straight from the bowl.
