It's a pleasure for me to squeeze out time and participate in this contest, I saw the question and I rush to partake because it has reminded me about a lot of things that is been happening here in school.
Have you ever craved for a particular kind of food in a season? What was the name of the food? Tell us a little bit about the food.
Food is one of the things we need in our daily lives, is something that there is a season that when ever you need it you will have this strong feelings. There is this particular food that I always craved for every Christmas season but my mom will not cook it, though she normally cooks it but not in a season that I may need it, the food I need most during Christmas season is pounded yam and white soup.
Pounded yam is one of the best traditional Nigerian dish, they use boil yam to achieve it, and before you get it you will have to pound it very very to be very smooth and stretchy. As for the white soup, you use pounded yam as thickener and without adding any form of oil, with the use of enough crayfish and proteins you are good to go. This particular meal is really good when the weather is cold and the pepper in the soup will help warm you up.
Name 3 weird food combo you have done and tell us how they tasted. For example I combined spaghetti and biscuit one time.. hahaha
Life of a student can expose one to different kinds of food combo, oarding school life has made me so many experiences with different types of food combinations because we are not always satisfied with the school food. There are three food combinations that I will love to mention which I have try in school.
imagine pouring red oil to a pot of jollof rice all because the face of the rice was so dark and it was name jollof rice. I did this so that I will be able to eat the rice.
another combo is that of okra soup that was save and it was just like water, no one could swallow their balls of garri so I quickly cut my already made Garry and add to to the soup to save as thickener and I was able to swallow it
this one mixture till tomorrow I keep asking myself what kind of combo it is because I still see myself eating it and I am use to it now. This is rice with Garry, imagine drinking garri with rice just to quench the hunger in you.
what inspired your food combo? And what was the effect to your body?
As a boarder, where the school food is not enough , and you know school food can not be compared to house food so for me not to stave myself to hunger I rather bring out a means whereby I will be able to fill my stomach. You know hunger can make you do the unthinkable without thinking about the side effects.
I can say I have experience any side effects before because my thinking is not always there, you know there is God that watches over his children and nothing has ever happened to me because of the mixture, I don't even know is because my body system has adapt to it. But before now I had never experienced any bad effects.
