This is yuccaIt grows bigThen you harvest the roots, which are poisonous But people want to eat them anyway, so they peel themAnd grind themInto soggy powderWhich you wring outAnd put through a sieveAnd dry over a fireThen if you add a whole bunch of spices to it you can put it on meat and it tastes not bad. Not this meat, this is just some meat they were drying at the farm.The stuff that settles out of the liquid is used to make tapioca.
