Eating In The Bus ? by multinet85(m): 10:13pm On Jan 14, 2009
Hello,

Can he kitchen wizards in the house tell us if it is acceptable or not to eat in the bus especially public transport. Considering the presence of others, probably some hungry passengers, the cleanliness of the vehicle (but they are packaged foods), the possibility of someone watching as you open your hungry mouth to bite off a big chunk of Gala or whatever, munch it mercilessly, and forcefully push it down (as if it would disagree to go down) with satchet (pure) water, (most ladies would prefer La Casera especially if a guy is around, and vice versa).

So, should we do this, whether on a long journey, or on the rush to work without breakfast. Of course those guys hawking on the road have to survive.

My mommy say It's not "ladylike" to eat food in public no matter how hungry you are.  And it's not just a Caribbean saying b/c when my half brother (Nigerian) was staying with me - he said the same thing.

Guess what? I broke that golden rule many times but I did it in a discreet wayundecided

It depends on what U are eating.~~ wink
Re: Eating In The Bus ? by Ogaga4Luv(m): 5:59pm On Feb 10, 2009
It really depends on what you are eating,Though i never like eating in the Bus. the market women are addicted to such harbit,Once upon a time in warri,a Woman sitting behind me in a Transportation bus, was Busy eating her Moi_Moi(Beans_Cake).i nearly vormit!! shocked .she never cant control how she eat in Public transport ,some of the little piece of the Moi Moi(Bean cake fell on my laps since shes sitting behind me,i was so embarrassed!,but the funniest thing there is im affraid of those Market women for any little mistake they can easily insult and Disgrace you., undecided . .

Obviously speaking,it is not bad to eat in the Bus,but most people are very irritating when seeing them eating in the Bus,though i have ate and drank in the bus,Only some little cake and juice and i think the person sitting behind me doesn't get embarassed or feel uncomfotable by me,for it was hardly notice im eating.

in other words,Eating in the bus some people may not appricate it.

i dont care, when i come home from school i always eat mcdonalds on the bus, nobody ever says anything to me.
Re: Eating In The Bus ? by Ogaga4Luv(m): 11:03am On Feb 11, 2009
It is really annoying you guys, some food really "funks" up the place, and wouldnt you just feel silly arranging a whole meal in front of you in a public conveyance? A sandwich or crackers/nuts,some juice etc would be more tolerable, I think. Try looking at the expression on peeps faces next time you find yourself tryna eat hot food in a bus undecided

Re: Eating In The Bus ? by multinet85(m): 12:49pm On Feb 11, 2009
Hello,

But come to think of it. Who really helps all these food and beverage companies remain in business? Isn't it the young men and women who hawk these products under the sun and in the rain. And if that is the case, eating on the run will always remain.

Now, even if we talk about eating in the bus, please can those who have traveled by air tell us if people do eat in the plane. People who traveled abroad, please inform the house on whether these oyibo too do eat in the bus/train/plane.

Somebody help us.

Re: Eating In The Bus ? by Ogaga4Luv(m): 5:22pm On Feb 12, 2009
eh. . . .eh,how do you sure about that?,you nor dey chop??,thats a lie!,dont say you cant eat anywhere,but what about your house,hotel or some restaurant?.

To ans ur Q, Yes you can eat on the plane as a matter of fast snack,drink are served and you can purchase a sandwich as well, And as for eating on the bus its a matter of ettiquette and personal orientation, because when you are really hungry the last thing you would be thinking about would be the next person close to u on the bus , hope this helps
