FOODIE'S FAVORITE

I eat a lot, I can eat almost anything… yeah you heard me right, almost anything as long as people can eat it. Okay no, not as long as people can eat it 😜 let it first be appetizing to the eye, have a good aroma, then I can trust to check and be sure of how it tastes. I recently discovered I can't eat just anything despite being a foodie, and the food poisoning experience I shared on my blog the other day is proof of that (you can check my blog for that post). There are some foods I like better than others, but it would really be in terms of categories. I have my best swallow, my best fried, and my best junk. Apart from the fact that these food's are really delicious and satisfying my choosing them as the best is a matter of perspective.

In Africa, Nigeria to be precise. We have our traditional delicacies from different tribes. Most of these delicacies are referred to as swallow because you eat them by swallowing them and not necessarily chewing. Although you can eat the meat and all, but the swallowing is the major part in eating. These foods include Eba, Amala, Pounded Yam, Fufu, Semovita, Starch etc… These foods are swallowed but can not be eaten alone. They go side by side with any soup of choice (African soups). My best in this category is a well prepared pounded yam and Egusi soup that has goat meat and fresh fish with a lot of other assorted meats.

I do enjoy other soups as well, but Pounded yam and Egusi soup became my favorite when my mum made it for the family as a little boy. I only eat it (This exact combo) on very special occasions and like to use it as a means of celebration. For fries, I would go for plantain. I love plantain whether fried, boiled or roasted. I can eat it with any of it's subordinates like sauce (For roasted plantain), eggs (for fried plantain), rice, beans ECT… When I still lived with my family, my mum wouldn't allow me to fry plantains when she's cooking or even allow me anywhere near the kitchen because I eat most of the plantains leaving little for the rest and still love to share theirs with them 😁. My best snack is Pizza, I love a well prepared chicken pizza that isn't dried… but then it's expensive so I only get to eat it when I have a lot of money to spend.
