Absolutely delicious. I dey carry my own go work well well. I tell them I have to take an 'extended break' to go eat privately because I don't want to offend their 'senses'. They will petition YOU made them sick. My 30 minute break is extended to 45 minutes WITH PAY!

Just avoid wahala. One complaint ok. Once 3 or more complain. . . . .you don buy cemetery be dat o.


But, you can kill someone not familiar with the exotic aroma. To make matters worse, they can conspire against you and get you FIRED for bringing toxic fumes to the work place. Some will even refuse to come to work and claim 'disability' because of your food!

This is funny in an unfunny way.. Na make person dey waka jeje be that oooo.

The shape of her mouth says alot

it's Igbo food mostly. the smell can be quite offensive. personally I don't like the smell. they have tasty food but that offensive odor is the issue. funnily enough, those foreign foods have higher nutritional value as compared to our starchy food. African food is filled with mostly starch. big outside but empty inside. Lord help us

What would she say about Indian foods! Asšhole!

Hello everyone,i have come up with a healthier means to eating soup and eba

Feeling like she has made it in life....

@sukkot, are you one of those people who packed eba for lunch when you were in the UK?

A Nigerian lady in the UK hinted that the UK wants to ban Nigerian food in offices because of the smell and that she supports the motion, Citing that our local delicacy smells bad whenever it's being warmed in offices in the UK.

Thats why we dont have cancer

I think something neutral like jollof rice/spaghetti, fried rice, even indomie is ok, I didn’t know people were packing abula with them lmao

When you’re used to a smell you probably aren’t thinking about it being pungent to be fair, I think it just depends on the type of food, they aren’t all ‘smelly’ lol

hey i am not here saying europeans are civilized people but in public they do try to keep some level of decorum. eating hot abula with igbin and iru smell and smacking your lips and licking your fingers in a west end london office is devoid of all manners of decorum

You only have to try it once.
The humiliation is real.
And boy. . . .the oyinbo people are IN SAFIA PAINS. You will feel sorry for them.

If you enter oyinbo market. . . .no smell.
Try going to an AFRICAN FOOD STORE. . . . .Shegey!!! Thank God they now have industrial freezers to contain the stench!

ponishah:

Thats why we dont have cancer

How can you know. . . when you have no hospitals and every illness is caused by witches and 'village people'?

1Sharon:




When I want to take african food to work, I make sure not to cook it with iru because I'm considerate of others in the workplace.

Then your mouth will also smell like 'vaggi' wey no baff for 3 months!
You go take that mouth dey tok to customers and clients.

Just waka je je. . . .it is not worth the stress.
Dem go gossip the matter till kingdom come.

Dem go dey tok. . . ."hey guys! do you remember when kiki brought 'fermented fish' to the lounge and made everyone sick"?
Even when new employees that don't know you come. . . they will use that story to introduce you ke.

It is not about inferiority complex. . . . it is just not a comfortable situation to be in.

Once you enter lounge. . . efry body go just bail. One by one. . . .dem go juss dey disappia.

A fat American woman has told me this before
Some Nigerian delicacies stink she says

Na so e pain you reach?
Why let us know say she 'fat?

diplomat058:


I'm trying to understand your perspective. Why would they ban some people's food? And what do you mean by 'ethnic food.' That some people normalize junks as regulars, does not mean you must force it down others' throats. It's a disappointment if you can't be proud of your cultural identity and allow others to castigate it as inferior. Shioor!

I don't think you understand. JUST LIKE I CAN'T STAND THE SMELL OF WEED. . . OR 'IGBO'!
Nothing to do with inferiority.

Some of our foods STINK!

The first time I tried to buy a house, my agent took me to a Nigerian family's home.

OMO! As soon as we entered the house. . . .NA OKPOROKO DIE DIA O.
I had to leave. The whole house was STINKING!

The only Black American guy I tried to date. . .and served him fufu and egusi soup. . . .thinking I was giving a 'special naija delicacy'. . . .I NEVER HEARD FROM HIM AGAIN AFTER THAT. He did not even bother to explain.

Some certain smells are just toooooooooooooo offensive to those not accustomed to it.
