You said America isn't expensive and I'm letting you know how much I pay in rent motherfuvcker

If you don't like paying that much rent then move to a place --- a different state or neighborhood ---- where it is a lot cheaper for you. No one hold you for where you dey, right? Apply commonsense in these things abeg!

Kobojunkie:
You can get free food from the local food pantry if you are not able to afford food here.

But why don't you tell him you can't get all food? You can get useless food like veg oil, canned tomatoes, fruits in some cases. These are foods that won't you won't even eat on a norm. And then it get limit of how many times you can go to pantry in a month. Maybe two or Three times

You people show unnecessary standard and lies about abroad to ignorant Nigerians who love to worship anything about abroad

Show us receipt, that’s a big fat lie!

Yup! He was not are that there are quite a few of us in Chicagoland on this platform.

1stGenAmerican:


Or he thought that he was the only Nigerian on this board in Chicago. Most of you guys have been there longer than he has and know the city better than he does, I’m sure. I’m pretty sure you guys earn more than he does yet you don’t feel the need to show off and lie to others.

Did you airfry this.?

lol nah bought it from this healthy supermarket called whole foods. It’s roasted on premises .

ibkayee:

I hope they’re clearer than those Burger King pics you posted that we needed magnifying glass to see 🚶‍♀️

it’s that iphone4 lmao

1stGenAmerican:


Bro, I forgot about Chipotle. You’re right again, rice bowl with chicken or beef, beans, etc. and I don’t recall paying over $10-&12
I don’t even think the expensive food at the airport comes close to the price this guy claims.

Uncle sam's lies and deceit is passed on from generation to generation.
Blinken's mendacious behaviour was inherited from his predecesors - pompeo, condoleeza, powel, albright, et al, all did the same. 🤮

But it is now GAME OVER!

1stGenAmerican:
See what I’ve found on the menu of a Chicago restaurant close to one of the largest business districts?
Now does OPs claim still sound true?

😂😂 Busted

1. Wow.... so you never gotten rice, bread, eggs, meat, chicken, beans, jam, peanut butter, pastries, Tuna, cereal, juice, potatoes, groceries, etc., from even your local food bank?

And your local food bank doesn't allow you a visit every two weeks? Wow... you really should move to another place or file a complaint with feedAmerica.org

Nigerian food is super expensive..... a meal could cost as much as $20- $30


Try that naija restaurant on Richmond and chimney Rock. Houston. Ordinary Eba with meat for $29

Not everyone likes those Chinese food

those African dishes were imported with custom charges after tax because they re native food in their country of origin, same way flour base dishes like cakes ,confectionery etc are expensive in Nigeria, u will literally go broke fast if u eat African dishes over there.

Healthy my arse... food na food! They suck you lot in with their organic branding so you can pay unnecessary prices for food you can get cheaper elsewhere.

Their processed foods are on steroids and this is coming from someone who loves junk food

i strongly disagree. The USA has healthier foods if you are willing to shop at trader joes and whole foods and even Dominics. Just don’t go too cheap cuz then you are buying inferior quality. The UK has a lesser quality of food when compared to whole foods and trader joes in the USA. But of course a better quality than cheaper foods in the USA. But ermmm I am in Nigeria bro. Suffering like a refugee. No naira no fuel. Na garri levels we dey

43Ronin:

Tge guy is a fućking liar, there's no way that small cup of rice alone is $25. Ok say where you bought it, their menu is always online. Low self-esteem liar. A bag of nugerian/singapore rice is $20. The cost you put there is the price of the entire meal plus delivery charges, tips & tax, why lying that just whit-rice alone is $25? Most of you people that just arrived the USA like to show yourselves. Your hustle neva even start u din dey lie.

I’m glad all you guys are chiming in with the truth because I didn’t want to seem like I was picking on OP.

Ijaya06:

This is a big fat lie. How much is a 10LBS of raw rice? Plus, you can't be charged a $5 tax for a $25.75 purchase. It is not possible. Your tax should be about 7.5% of your total amount and as such about $1.9 as against your claim of $5.

I am dead sure the cost includes delivery, tip and more of the food.

Please lie with ease.

not in the USA you actually physically see the bad effects of cheap food on poor African American men. gmo food. The men have man boobs. Big breast like c or d cup breast lol

1. ALDI is healthy without the big price tags. There is nothing inferior there at all. So also is Walmart.

Ijaya06:


There's a little sauce, but it's just curry. If I want beef, I'll pay about $50

What kind of lie is this ?
Where in the US are you?

ALDI is not a wide selection but yes you can get some good stuff there

Hahaha. He should file a complaint because the foods you named are free for the taking at every food bank across the country. If it’s not given it away, it’ll go bad. I don’t think they stop people from going. One trip should be enough food for two weeks, single or family gets enough for each member. I volunteered at the drive up over Christmas and each car was getting a 10 pound. bag of potatoes, jars of peanut butter, rice, and a box of other stuff. The cars with drivers that said they had more family members got double.

1. Stop lying! Instead what you see is result of overeating and not bad or what you call cheap food.

2. How many actual illnesses have you verified are caused by eating what you call GMO foods? Nigerians for Nigeria don dey eat that thing tay and dem no get the same overeating issues, do they?

ibkayee:

My wife's only been here for two weeks and already complained about how much she misses UK, and how easily she could get Nigerian foods in the UK compare to the "not so easily" accessible African market we have here

1. No mind the riffraff who probably also thinks no one here has ever worked at the food bank or knows anything about what foods are made available regularly to those who use their service.

2. Exactly! So, I don't understand why anyone needs resort to lying about these things.

Where do you see these men? My whole maternal side is African American and none of the men have breasts.

Stop lying! Obesity affects different races/tribes/body shapes differently.

I asked you a simple question. How many actual illnesses have you verified are caused by eating what you call GMO foods? Nigerians for Nigeria don dey eat that thing tay and dem no get the same overeating issues, do they?

Nobody can pay me to trade American food for the bland unseasoned food in the UK. Only the ethnic food is good.
My Nigerian dad says often that he doesn’t understand why Nigerians eat Nigerian food for their whole lifetime, move abroad, and don’t try to eat anything but the Nigerian food they’ve eaten every day in life. As a kid, we had Nigerian food 2, 3 nights each week maybe but we enjoyed other things too. I could never travel to Nigeria and eat only American food or go to Asia or South America and eat American food that I can eat at home.
