Going emotional like always. Has it ever helped any of u achieve anything? Nope. So fast to rain curses while the rest of the world is moving on. Enjoy ur rain of curses. They don't even know how to pretend to act civil in a forum. As if swearing and cursing will make one dollar equals a naira. If Nigeria has different kinds of food like claimed, I will like to see them on the cook,snap and show thread not indomie, ewedu, egwusi etc or yam and foofoo. That shows what an average Nigerian eat. If u love those foods,cook and celebrate them not throwing tantrums. Other countries cook and celebrate their foods. I have one of the best selling Nigerian cook book from around the country and the things posted here are what is in that book. I have stayed in almost all parts of Nigeria and have tasted as many Nigerian dishes as I can see but guess what, we don't have cuisines. Sorry folks but that's the hard truth. Go to united kingdom or USA and enter a modest restaurant, will u see Nigerian food there? Nope,why, because we don't have food of international standard except the ones we borrowed like fried rice. So u can cry me a river, dears. Who will want to swallow garri or foofoo. In some countries by now they would have experimented on many ways to use cassava to cook instead of foofoo. What does food and nutrition or home management departments in Nigerian universities do? Which Nigerian food crop have they experimented with to come up with new dishes? Instead we are still in the 11th century but will do anything to copy foreign cuisines and later term them Nigerian. Just like an average Nigerian. Copy copy. Is it only food, everything copy copy. Nothing to be proud of. Except throwing tantrums and cursing themselves everywhere in social media, what else can u boast of? Mtcheew. 4 Likes |

sassysure: This post doesn’t only reek of ignorance. It reeks of foolishness, bitterness and stupidity to say the least. It would be a shame on you if you ever taste any Nigerian food after this senseless post of yours. Now, crawl back to whichever hole you crawled out from. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Make una take am easy o. Na ordinary food o. Whether intercontinental, or Nigerian, all na food. It will all end up as no 2 lastlast. The main thing is eating in small portions, and exercising to live a healthier life. There's nothing wrong in our carbohydrate meals, as its also an important food class. Chinese /Asianmeals are also nice, and they do have carbohydrate too. As I said earlier, it's all about portions and making the right choices in meals. You guys shouldn't be so harsh on sassysure, as her exposure to Nigerian meals may just be limited to a few. The same way an average Chinese man's meals is often limited to rice and noodles. That's a staple for them. Because the average Chinese restaurant has a very rich menu (at the end of the day, you find out its the same food they've given differnt names on the menu. You see menu of over hundred meals, and last last they're all similar. Either replacing beef for duck or chicken or shrimps or king prawns Now, Nigeria is a very large country with several groups who all have their own meals. I can assure you that there are loads of meals many have never tasted. Is it from the different ways hausas make their meats- suya, balango, and about 10 other varieties. These can be taken as a meal on its own with some flat bread, masa, and so many other source of bread, to the various snacks such as kulikuli, groundnut which can be blended and used as a sauce on its own. Similar to some of the sauce in some Chinese meals. We have so many vegetables from the west despite the fact that people believe Yorubas don't eat vegetables (I'm sure I will be told only ewedu, spinach and soko is available but what about ebolo, worowo and so many other vegetables my mother only brings back from her own mother's village?) Each vegetable with its own distinct taste. We havent talked about the beans and its products like moimoi, akara, apapa, ekuru, all different though from black eyed peas/beans. What of asaro/cottage, ikokore. These are all delicacies. What of the correct stews- atadindin, ayamase,omuoyo? We havent gone to the Igbo people, and then South South with their differnt vegetable soups all tasting differnt and unique? Swallows are our staples like rice and noodles to the Chinese. Heck, we even have tuwo shinkafa- rice turned into swallow to show you how we love swallows. Our swallow options are much more than the Chinese options of rice, vermicelli/spaghetti/noodles. Most of our vegetables soups can be eaten on their own, but you do need a little carbohydrate so a small portion of rice or swallow option is fine with it What Nigerian foods may need is packaging in terms of giving them some grandiose names. But then again, why should we? I'm yet to see an Indian give their meals some grandiose names. A lot of effort is put into our meals. I have felt like eating moimoi for the past weeks. I've been buying the ingredients small by small, and I have beans powder but i still don't have the energy to make it despite the major job of peeling beans is out of the way. I saw one beautiful okro soup on another food thread, and I wish there was someone to cook it for me. Suya, balango, chicken suya, chicken isiewu(not goat head) are just things i can dream of. I don't have energy to do that. Pounded yam is but a dream. Still on our food abroad, people who know, know. I have met several oyibo who when they hear im Nigerian, its the jollof they start talking about. One was testifying to his freind and licking his lips when I had a random meeting on the street wiyh them. Even the swallow, those who dey chop am dey chop am among the oyibo abroad. To say we don't have variety, na lie. But some foods are common amongst majority. Anyway, back to oyibo food Take and chop. Fish and chips. The staple food of Britons. They also don't have variety per say, just their bacon, baked beans, potatoes, eggs in different forms. They have a lot of dessert sha, and savoury dishes. Other foods they cook are imported 22 Likes

sassysure: You keep on spewing rubbish. I have no problem with the food you're posting or whatever you call that trash. Just don't insult Nigerians. Why call us a stupid country and call it's citizens wasted? That's what started this argument Well in your stupid, dark, ignorant, evil, mind you're black and you will continue to be black. Whether you like it or not. So all those degrading words up there are referring to you as well. Because you do nothing to make a change to our food. You just sit with your phone and talk trash.

Mariangeles:this your porridge looks yummy, hers looks yummy too, especially because of the sauce n meat. I hate fried egg n fried plantain especially ripe plantain. I'm actually tired of Nigerian foods too like her, mainly swallow, rice, yam, beans n other derivatives. Though I have not seen much of other Nigerian tribes sha but they are still fatty foods. Nobody is saying Nigerian foods are bad, she is only saying you should try other foods, she never chose any particular country over Nigeria that's y she is sharing foods from different countries. I would love to marry a woman dat tries different healthy foods from different countries including Nigeria. |

kenex4ever:SHE IS saying Nigerian foods are bad! I posted on this thread because she condemned Nigerian foods... You don't even know her! If she had created this thread to show variety of foods from across the world, it would have been nice and insightful. But she and her cohorts had to condemn Nigerian foods...and most of the foods she's posting are white flour products If you call Nigerian foods fatty, then you don't know much about Nigerian foods... You don't know what you have until you can't have it! Talking about swallows, do you know how many variety of Nigerian soups ( healthy vegetable soups) you can eat with swallows?? 6 Likes 1 Share |
