Konquest:Right. My side of the yoruba tribe doesn't even eat Ewedu that much. Ewedu is chiefly an Oyo food. You would rarely find eastern Yorubas like the Ijesha, Ekiti, Ondo, e.t.c prefer to eat Ewedu and Amala compared to Egunsi and iyan. 3 Likes 1 Share |

No mind that boy with the handle : premium.. egusi yoruba is the worst… it taste like baby poo. Plus Yoruba oil is the worst. I will never eat any food prepared with that shitty oil. Smells like cancer. Bulldozer90: |

People asking egusi na igbo soup, Shey the name "Egusi" sounds like Yoruba or Hausa to your ears ? I'm from Kaduna state but you people will always jealous Igbos. You are not from Kaduna,you are residing in Kaduna. |

Konquest: Widely eaten by Yorubas doesn't imply it is indigenous to Youruba. Rice is the king of occasions in Nigeria and will still be a hot commodity even if a bag sells at ₦200k but we know rice is not indigenous to Nigeria. Nigeria once exported palm oil as an international trade commodity but we all know the oil palm is not indigenous to Nigeria. Yorubas are known for Amala ati Ewedu. Egusi cannot be indigenous to Youruba yet get sidelined by Ewedu. 2 Likes |

okoroemeka: Even all these asserted meats are what igbos copied from Yorubas. Yorubas are well known for bulky meat consumption unlikeigbos. In those days, you would hardly find meat in igbo's household soup. If they have at all they are always tiny small meat. |

Makunahatata: They have not been able to show one single proof. Dozens of evidences of the Yorubas have been dropped on this thread. More evidences of words borrowed by the ibos from Yoruba and Hausa. As can be seen below, the author said Egunsi has no origin in iboland. 5 Likes

I went home to celebrate Easter and grandma prepared egusi soup for me,see let me tell you egusi belongs to the yoruba people. It originated from the SW states and I can tell you egusi can be used to make many stuffs by us Now let me ask you can igbos make ewedu elegusi,robo elegusi,alapa. Even all this talk talk that igbos make soup most in nigeria I don't believe, go to calabar and all the SS states and see many of their precious delicacies that igbo people copied. I wish to visit calabar soon honestly, their soups are the best 3 Likes |

People are mixing up things here. There is a difference between: What tribe owns the word Egusi? And What tribe does melon/Egusi soup originated from? It's a two different things |

waternogetememy:so what proof do u have Igbos didn't actually took egusi frm Cameroonians since u share culture,food and fashion.? Who made the rules that since there's no documentation or record about the invention of egusi, so automatically egusi should belong to Igbos and Cameroonians the borrower ? I won't b shocked if u claim they borrow your culture and fashion as well. The shit sounds like u feel Igbos are superior to Cameroonians ,tho na your way 3 Likes |

All these my Eastern brothers una mumu no too much. What is this mentality of always grabbing. Egusi is a general soup all over Nigeria and is planted everywhere in the country. White soup is not peculiar to igbos. Many tribes in the south and Middle belt have their name for that soup and special way they prepare it. This is why I just dislike you guys. Mind you I am anioma from delta 4 Likes 1 Share |

Slytiger:@Slytiger, Succinctly stated... Exactly! Some of these ignorant folks don't know up to 1 percent of who Yorubas are and don't realize that Egunsi soup (obe egunsi) and iyan (pounded yams) is a national or regional delicacy of Eastern Yorubas especially the Ekitis, Ijesas, Ondos, and NOT Ewedu and Amala isu (yam flour swallow) of the Oyo-Yorubas of which Ibadan indigenes are a part of. The Ijebus who are indigenes of Lagos and Ogun States have Ikokore, Garri Ijebu, and more as their regional foods, etc. I had to do a lot of reading and research over the years on Yoruba history, cuisines and culture (among other cultures from other ethnicities) and realized that the Yorubas have very rich delicacies and soups. Mushroom soups are also part of the mix in Yorubaland. The only thing is that some soups are made only for special occasions because a lot goes into their preparations and some have seasonal ingredients (which I think can be solved by using hydroponics or greenhouses to grow the exotic ingredients all year round). 2 Likes 2 Shares |
