While I respect her preference, housing discrimination is illegal. Europeans cook smelly food as well. Restaurants, McDonald's, Domino's, Burger king etc all smell and people from all race and color go there. But to say Africans food smell is kind problematic for me to accept her claim for refusing rental. If I catch that woman, ehen.... [img]https://i./Ltnj.gif[/img] 1 Like |

OiOi: She shouldn't have said it like that...there are ways to reject somebody you don't want to live with for any particular reason. Anyway you can close the door, turn on the extractor fan or open a window when cooking depending on the type of house. It's true that we have very strong smelling foods that may turn her stomach if she's not used to them but there was no need to implicate herself with such a silly comment. |

SEGLIZ: Indian food has a very distinct smell that can stick in the house, on your clothes or skin for days. The enlightened ones among them try to cook in the garage |

Commentor: Exactly. She has no right to assume what the fellow is going to cook, anyhow. How does she know the European she brings won't be a Dutch guy who once stayed in Port Harcourt and fell in love with native soup There's nothing to argue here, the woman is very stupid. Maybe not even English but a peasant European from some racist country 1 Like 1 Share |

OiOi: Your point is valid, it's just that she had no right to discriminate outwardly based on his nationality. You don't have to accommodate anybody in your house if it's not what you want, she was just making a point of being spiteful to assert her racial superiority on the guy. |

This particular thread is one of the reasons I don’t come on nairaland anymore....it used to reek of bigotry and sadly, it still reeks. Someone’s said African food smells and some of you are being tribalistic about that. Tueh. A black man is a black man’s plague. Are you people dumb? Meals will have a certain kind of odour, particularly when it’s not indigenous to you. Asians/South Asians use a lot of fermented fish and soy sauce, it doesn’t smell great to me, but they love it...the same way we love iru or ogiri. If every homeowner discriminates against tenants based on what they cook, I wonder how Africans will get homes to live in the UK. Some of you know nothing about getting discriminated against based on sampling a few people in a population...it hurts and it is demeaning. In Asia, some people hold their breath when they walk past Africans because they feel we smell, or they keep a distance from you when they manage to talk to you. They don’t care if you’re Kenyan or Igbo, you are all black people and you smell. Africans are never united....and it is annoying. A misinformed white person says something and ya’ll wag your little tails and diss yourselves based on their nonsense comments. Nairaland should be a place where we are in unison, foreigners come on this page and they see the hatred amongst you guys. People that don’t love themselves expect to be treated well when they leave the shores of the country. I feel so sorry for you bigots. 5 Likes |

NaijadrivaCars:bro, what you call aroma is what people say it smells.. if you travel, you will know.. the food we eat tells alot of how our body would smell eventually, that is why I do make it necessary to eat fruits,vegetables, salad. My Mexican girl once came to my place, I was cooking soup and she said "what is that smell"?. Keep in mind that I have heard people of other race say such things about the African food having a smell.. so when this Mexican girl told me the same thing, I accepted that truly the African food smells.. To other race with their kind of food, it also smells but less. I believe their food or seeds have been genetically modified thereby such smell isn't there too much. |

decub:it's the same way some of us hate the smell of crayfish, but does that mean we should deny others rent because of the smell of crayfish? When I was a student in England, I had a roommate from the SE of Nigeria that puts an enormous amount of crayfish in everything he cooks. The whole flat smells of crayfish, but other flatmates (i.e. Nigerian, British and Asian) never got angry but tolerated his cooking. 1 Like |
