Very true , but nothing concern me and rice. Put love-portion for me inside rice, you won't get me.
Put it inside fufu and a well cooked afang/okazi soup...I'll follow you up grin.

Re: Nigerians Are Eating Too Much Rice! by Nathan2016: 8:16pm On Dec 05, 2016
No.. Rice contain high amount of carbohydrates

Rice n carbohydrates while yam na protein abi?
Re: Nigerians Are Eating Too Much Rice! by Nobody: 8:17pm On Dec 05, 2016
It's not like we're cultivating up to half of our rice consumption capacity yet. To me the scarcity of rice is not because of high demand, it's due to almost non-existent local supply. Even the other foods you talk about, it's not like they're too available.
Re: Nigerians Are Eating Too Much Rice! by Nobody: 8:19pm On Dec 05, 2016
Nathan2016:
Thats true. Rice is not even a good diet. Especially without the meat

Its just carbohydrates.


I think Nigeria should look into yam production, potato production, Cassava/garri - other ways to eat it like flakes, plantain. etc.. these are good nutritious carbohydrates .. more than rice..

Most of the rice we eat here have been well synthesised and in that process , lose it natural format. since i reduce the consumption of rice. my body weight have reduced and also i hardly feel heavy....Rice is actually a bad idea for constant food consumption

Depends on the type you consume bro, check out brown rice (ofada)
Re: Nigerians Are Eating Too Much Rice! by Pylony(m): 8:25pm On Dec 05, 2016
You think you can't do with out rice in a week in this recess economy?

well the current Recession has already cause Many Nigerians to substitute their diet with other cheaper affordable food stuffs in the market far away from the now expensive Rice on the table of the poor.

We no even eat rich reach the Chinese ppl so i no know wetin op dey complain about.And by the way if we no come dey chop rice wetin u expect us to come dey chop hehe.But on a more serious note wat op shold be more concerned about is nigerians having a balanced diet and including vegetables and fruits in their consumption.THat is the most important thing.We should try to include vegetables in our meals.You tell me wich is more nutritious between these two meals...A huge bowl of akpu or fufu with another small bowl of watery soup wit nothin on it or a plate of jollof rice with lots of vegetables and ice fishcheesy...which between the two meals is more nutritious?. Anyway personally beans is my favourite meal and after beans na rice.wats important is having a balanced diet.wen ur diet is balanced na so ur skin go dey shine.

Whenever my wife say, "Rice ile tife tan" (not much rice in store), fear grips me. Why? Because it is a cost less food to eat. It is what we resolve to when other foods have finished and we have not restock. And like somebody said, it has a longer shelf life. Half bag of rice lasts 3 months in our house. We dare not buy half bag of beans. These are the reasons why rice is the most consumed food.
