A Twitter user @_ikwomma has taken to the bird app to raise an alarm, after buying a fake Bama mayonnaise.

So today I bought a fake Bama mayonnaise �. I knew something was off when I got it but I was in too much hurry to take a close look till I got home. They were some differences between this fake and the original Bama I’d want to share. A Thread….

1) The original comes in plastic, the other was in a bottle.
2)While the original has the stamp that says quality, the other doesn’t
3) Original Bama has its expiration date on the body, the fake has its expiration date on the cover
4)I knew something was definitely off when it wasn’t sealed.
5)The fake was also a lot thinner than the original Bama which was thick
6) The original had this table that had the nutritional facts of Bama, the fake didn’t.

SOURCE

My own observation;

1) Not all sizes come in plastic. Only the smallest size (8 FL. OZ.) comes in a plastic jar and plastic cover. The bigger sizes (16 and 32) comes in glass jars and plastic covers. If you take a look at the fakes, they have larger contents. Bama only comes in 8, 16, and 32 FL. OZ.

Twitter users ran to check theirs and it turns out that many people are currently consuming other brands thinking it is “Bama”.


For reasons best known to these criminals, they mostly imitate the smallest size.

An average Nigerian is naturally wicked.


Please let's not argue about this.

Sebi all na mayonnaise

Yes, they are all mayonnaise, but under what conditions are these other brands made? Some may not even have NAFDAC numbers.

It is totally unfair and inhumane to pass off other products as a market leader. Give people the choice to go for what they want. It is unfair to both the consumers and to Bama.

Wahala for person wey dey use mayor of lagos oo.
Me wey water dey there,

I Go soak my NAO bread
With pure well water,

Asap.

Save your lectures. The people repackaging the mayonnaise are not here.

They don’t need to be here, but then, they can also be here. There is no one that isn’t on Nairaland. If Uduak Akpan, a convicted rapist, and murderer, was on Nairaland. Invictus Obi, was on Nairaland - what makes you think the people doing this are not here?

Okay, let’s forget about the perpetrators. What of control bodies? They are also not here?

You should know better than coming at me with your wanton st*********. It wouldn’t be tolerated. Thank you!

This is disheartening! All in a bid to make money, you sell your low quality product using a bigger brand name.

Same thing they do for drugs. Making money not minding what the user will suffer.

So, as st****** spokesperson, they'll now listen to you

Tag the control bodies and stop forming nonsense!

is all water water? the water from the stream, is it the same as the water from the well, the same was water from borehole, the same as treated water?

you may not even know that the coke and fanta made in nigeria are not allowed in the uk - someone imported fanta to the uk some years back for a party and the fanta was siezed and destroyed.

this is LITERALLY why people have falling over from kidney disease. i have seen videos of people mixing some of these things in bath tubs. i can guarantee you that there will be rats, cockroaches and who know whatever at the scene of the mixing

the worst part of it is that because this is Nigeria, nothing will happen. a former colleague used to work in guiness. guiness reps met with Dora to ask what they could do about counterfeiting guiness products. her answer - all you can do is change you packaging every three to four years. and she is right. fake drug barons literally came this close to assassinating her [you will see the video, where she has the headgear the bullet passed through] and nothing happened.

imagine someone trying to assassinate the head of the FDA in the US.

we are yet to build institutions. just like EFCC, once Dora left NAFDAC- they are nothing more than a rubber stamp.

the only time we heard from them was something etween them and chocolate royale - and that really just came off to me as the usual story for the laymen.

With the way even the taste and quality of the

original Bama has reduced, I wonder what these inferior ones will taste like.

Pocohantas, what's your problem gan gan? You're always in the habit of exhibiting your unnecessary hate anytime you sees my moniker. I'm not the cause of what you're going through or what you've been through. I'm just a honey boy living my champagne lifestyle on a beer budget.

Peace and love, darling.

As usual, try to play the victim. Seems you have permanent memory loss or short term memory.

You quoted me first with this nonsense on my own thread and now you want to hide your hands and play the usual ad hominem - make this about me or whatever you wish I am going through. I have no hate for you. I just wish you can be smart enough to keep your bullshit away from me. Thank you.

My initial post was harmless. Learn to read and digest my posts with clean heart. Cast your burden on the Lord before you reply my posts, Poco.

@bolded. Nairaland is a public forum created by Osewa. You're not the owner or co-owner. You got no right reserved for any thread.

Shalom.

Oh please shut up. Since you know this about Nairaland, why then is it strange to you that I was having that conversation?
