I detest using stock cube to cook beans. Some people even go to an extent of adding curry and thyme inside soup. Chai! Some people they chop nonsense

Just Google the following

msg addiction maggi


Try an experiment and eat no Maggi for one month it will change your life.

In fact it is even possible to take it to the next level and use no salt .

It is an eye opening experience
That can be extended to other areas outside of food. One gets to realize that one often believes,without questioning, a lot of things that are not true........

Seasoning or not, salt is bad for your heart......I believe Doctors in the house will back me up......
Op is either you have a weird taste bud or you use something to compliment the saesoning....I was priveledge to be in the UK and their food taste awful without "maggi/Royco/Knoll/Mr Chef" seasoning...my advice is that, too much salt is bad for your health and don't go abroad without carrying your seasoning along...

Irú is natural, isn't it? The point agarawu23 is trying to achieve (correct me if I'm wrong) is can women cook tasty foods without seasoning?
The point I'm trying to make is that Iru is a seasoning, as opposed to the fact that they don't use anything but salt in villages.

just say you're diabetic or something must be wrong somewhere. It BIG FAT LIE. Some dog will not eat food without maggi... It doesn't matter the amount of FISH,MEAT or ONIONss you used it still cannot test as GOOD as when you used maggi. That's certain for sure.and the only food that can be managed without using maggi is maybe bean or beans soup,then stew.that's all.or you're still not Good enough in cooking.shikena

mr man.it doesn't matter who you're or how good you can cook or what you can do with food. I'm telling you categorically and specifically that its not POSSIBLE for you to cook without maggi as long as I know what maggi is and the kinds of food we've got in Nigeria.even outside nigeria and you'll have a good test as when you used maggi. Its what I know very very well. Just as I've said earlier except something is wrong somewhere cos even MR chef uses maggi even more than ordinary cooks. No offence intended, and I'm not saying you can't.But it can never have same test. NEVER

Op point of correction its called seasoning not maggi as maggi is a brand name....am a Knorr fan..forget Knorr chicken...beef etc..nothing like the ordinary Knorr...

To the topic...what is appealing to you is not to others...

Food taste better when seasoned or spiced.

I cook with and without seasing depending on what am eating and how I want the food to taste.

There is no need for argument......

Carry out a blind man's test.. It implies cook same food using same heat..same ingredients...same time ...one with salt and the other with salt and seasoning....serve it in two separate labelled bowls A&B ...blindfold fifty persons and ask them to taste...you can interchange the bowl to serve from first repeatedly... Let them tell u which is tastier....

I made a sugarless ice cream for a friend once he keeps coming back for more...y...cos what is appealing to you is not to others

I'm not saying you can't. But take it or leave it.it can never be as DELICIOUS as you're saying. Even if you're trained under the rivers or above the earth. You can never have that delicious test without maggi. No need for arguements.that's the fact.shikena

Good evening all

I have been wondering why ladies can't cook good food without adding Maggi angry

What is the 'job' of Maggi in your cooking?

There was a day I told my gf that I don't put Maggi in my cooking and she was like " how will the food taste"?

Honestly speaking, I am a good cook and I don't use maggi for the past 3years now and I still get good taste.

Must u use Maggi?


Of course, Maggi isn't used in all foods u knw but like a Nairalander said up there, One man's food is definitely another man's poison... The fact u enjoy it doesn't mean others will and d fact that others used maggi in foods doesn't mean they cannot cook dear.

Just try using a cube to spice d taste of ur food and see if it wouldn't be much better than what u've been eating for d past three years.....
I'm not an "Excessive maggi" fan bt I jex do believe in Balancing Equation in everything u do which entails cooking too

Re: Why Can't Ladies Cook Without "Maggi"? by sped1oro(m): 7:29pm On Mar 27, 2016
The best alternative to seasonings for food are white crayfish and locust bean. I have been cooking for more than 10 years without all these poisonous seasonings and if you taste my food it is difficult to know if it contains seasoning or not.
Also, for men who wants to always have strong erection and lasting pleasure, please stay away from seasonings as much as you can. Though, I have little control over food I eat outside my house, therefore, I limit and control how I eat outside to avoid too much consumption of these silent killers.
The locust bean in your food helps to improve your vision and sights, it also regulate and control your blood sugar level. Locust bean also helps to digest your food easily, it does not have any side effects at all.
While the white crayfish add a Natural spice and aroma to your food, it also help in improving your white blood cells because it's highly proteinous and vegetarians can not do without it.
Practice cooking with these two natural ingredients and come back and thank me later.
