I have eaten walu cooked in two ways. The first time I prepared and cooked it myself. It tasted awesome, my whole family enjoyed it. The after effects were like eating ex-lax!!!!!!! I learned later that walu must be prepared correctly prior to cooking. After preparing and cooking it right the second time, it not only tasted better, but stayed down with no problems at all. So, the trick to eating walu, is preparing it right...... Walu,
