What is the actual "tapioca" part ?

On a footnote if I found myself in Singapore looking for a hooker Id want her name to be Tapioca.

Tapioca is a flavorless, colorless, odorless starch extracted from the root of the plant species Manihot esculenta. This species, native to Brazil, is now cultivated worldwide and has many names, including cassava, bitter-cassava, manioc, "mandioca", "aipim", "macaxeira", "manioca", "boba", "yuca" (not to be confused with yucca), "Sagudana" (literally, Sagu drops)--with local variation of "Sabudana"--and "kappa". Tapioca is a staple food in some regions and is used worldwide as a thickening agent, principally in foods. Tapioca is gluten free, and nearly protein free. The commercial form of tapioca most familiar to many people is pearl tapioca.

The name tapioca is a word derived from tipi'óka, the name for this starch in Tupi[1] This Tupi word refers to the process by which the starch is made edible. However, as the word moved out of South America it came to refer to similar preparations made with other esculents.[citation needed] 'Tapioca' in Britain often refers to a rice pudding thickened with arrowroot,[citation needed] while in Asia the sap of the sago palm is often part of its preparation.[citation needed]

Pearl tapioca is similar to pearl sago, which is used in essentially the same ways. Consequently, tapioca may be called sago, and vice versa.

Tapioca is a flavorless, colorless, odorless

So essentially we eat tapioca pudding for the bumps ?

Rice pudding has bumps but theyre flavorful bumps.

I made big pot of Swedish meatballs.

I mixed ground turkey with sausage. Added bread crumbs, brown sugar, alspice, nutmeg and minced onion. Rolled them in big balls and baked for a half hour.

The sauce: 2 cans cream of chicken, a little butter, brown sugar, allspice, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Mix and add about 3 cups of milk. Pour into 1 pound cooked pasta.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMM! :-4

BEER ROASTED CAT

1 cat cut into roast

1 can of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom soup

1 cube of beef bouillon

1 clove of garlic

1 Fine Irish Stout, a lot like a popular dark Irish Beer®, but NOT that brand at their lawyers' request. They alledge this article, educating others in the legal eating habits of over 100 million people world-wide, and specifically in rising East Asian markets, is "highly offensive."

Cover and soak cat roast in salt water for 24 hours. Drain water and then cover and soak in beer for 6 hours. Drain and place in crock pot with your cans of soup. Add a clove of garlic, and a cube of beef bouillon. If you start to slow cook your cat in the morning with your George Foreman Cooker (or it's ilk), you'll have finely cooked feline in time for supper.

If a slow cooker is not available, a cat can be baked at 350 degrees for 2-3 hours in a conventional oven and still come out pretty good. Beer Roasted Cat is fantastic served with mashed potatoes, collard greens, and fresh, homemade egg rolls. When planning a full meal just remember- cat is a course best served hot!

Cat may not be the most glamorous, or tastiest of game meats, but with a little thought and preparation, Baked Cat can make the belly of the persnicketiest diner glow with home baked goodness.
