The meat\meats serves as encouragement to carry on. Absence of meat on food discourages. We all know the food will look like, mehn no, no, ,no matter how hungry you are.

If you have 4 pieces of meat in your meal would you eat the 4 meats at the end of the meal ??
The answer is #No.
If you have money your Nigerian mentality will change, so,ask God for money

eddyland: Well, I have noticed that we Nigerians like eating the meat(s) in our food at the end of the meal. And I have also seen many instances even when there are multiple pieces of meat in the soup, they will eat everything first before finally taking on the meat.

I don't really know why it is so, or has it just turned to our culture? Why do you think that Nigerians like eating meat last in their plate of food?

Man of God.
Anyone that eats his/her meat after the meal can steal people's fowl grin grin

[b]That's it..

The meat is the prize awaiting you at the end of the rather boring meal. This started as kids cos we hated to eat food especially garri and soup. Plus I think I remember mums telling us to eat the meat last.. Though now I think of it again, I believe she said that because what normally happened was that we would eat the meat and abandon the food. So the meat was an incentive for us to eat.. grin #OldSchoolParentingSkills. .

We just bust laugh and I told him, I didn't even notice I was eating the meat later. embarassed

While I cannot speak for others, I will state my own reason.

It is based on a rather embarrassing experience.

Back then in campus, I was at the school cafeteria, settled down with my food, but the meat was really calling me. grin.
I obliged it, swallowing the two pieces of meat before I started eating.

A minute after, I noticed some hot chicks giggling beside my table. I didn't have to wonder why, cos next day, the campus gossip magazine had me in it.
" campus big boy eats without meat".

Shame no free me chop meat until I finish eating ever again. cry

For me I called the meat an appetizer cos I easily lost appetite for meal without meet or fish..but if I have more than one meat on the food then I always eat on DURING and the other AFTER the meal...just not to lost appetite for the food..
