Some of you specialise in wasting money. What stops you from cooking at home?

Yet some people up there said the Food is cheap. While you acknowledge it's is costly.

This life sef.

tetralogyfallot:
Normally this shouldn't cost more than 700 at this season but it's cost a whopping 1500.

I bought a Full Basket last two weeks at the rate of N3000 in Lagos.

This is the remainder now Chilling in the Kitchen.

Guy abeg go rest. Wetin be your own sef.

seetomorrow:
Confirmed. This is what is called MEAL., not carbohydrate all through

Thank You.

That's how I used to buy my Food. I actually wanted to add Beans, Fried Plantain, Moi Moi, and Salad.

But the current situation of things coupled with my bad mood actually made me bought the food that way and left the place.

I was not happy when I saw the content of the Rice he sold in the Container.

Endyrich:
location bro

Mainland, Lagos.

Zealoy:
Stew i used to cook with #4k plus 1derica of rice is wat i cook with #7k only stew no rice, this situation is terrible

Lol so where will the Rice come from😂

WantsandMore:
Op. I don't know why you've spaghetti when you already have rice, all that money should've gone into more protein. More eggs healthy. More grains not so much.

No vex and don't mind me my brother.

This was earlier this year before dollar crisis.

NairaOcean:
What are your thoughts on this photo of a woman enjoying time with her children at an eatery while her maid sits far away without being served anything?

I have this Video on my phone.

I actually thought it was skit until Shiit got real.

Brownemeka:
is that the food or you've eaten out of it?

That's the whole food.

I angrily threw It on the Table when I got home. That's the reason why it looked that way.

pocohantas:
As someone who cooks at home a lot and eats out too, I disagree that eating outside is cheaper for anyone. Good food costs money everywhere on the world. If the food is cheap, something has been compromised.

Looking at that food there, it is obvious everything was compromised.

However, I do agree the initial cost of setting up a kitchen and stocking it could be expensive.

I ordered food yesterday @N9,410
Today @ N6380

Just a plate. Though yesterday's own had turkey, asun and meatpie _ aside the main meal. Today is croaker fish. This is for one eating and a serving of jollof is N900 or so. If I decide to eat twice a day, it is almost 100k for 5 working days. How much do I use to cook soup and stew that lasts 3 weeks?

This your Bill off me Abeg.

truthhurts2:
Pls where is the jollof in the rice?

Don't even know which pays more in buying ready made food or cooking at home.

It's beneath the spaghetti.

The person who sold the food wasn't even in a happy mood. The way I also hurled the food on the Table when I got home made it look rough like I had eaten from it.

I felt so bad.

cerpvad:
You are lucky to get the container for 200. At my end here, na 300

Nawa ooo.

It Is Well though.

blowjohn:
I don't get it.

Jollof rice, fried rice, spaghetti together?

Where u go sef wey dem dey sell rice for 300 naira?

Abeg hold flagyl O

Abeg go sleep.

Winning123:
Attention seeker! You want to eat fat when you can't farm

Must everybody be a Farmer..

seetomorrow:
Hmmm. You are part of your problem. But next time never you buy Jollof Rice, Fried Rice and Spaghetti at same time. Eat healthy and utilize any small amount.
Instead buy Jollof Rice and Beans then add vegetables or Salad, because you bought almost same type of food in 3 places.
Peace

Your mind don Calm down now shey.

dahmie2013:
But how come only you is eating 2 beefs and one egg. Isn't it much?

I don't joke with Protein.

Initially I actually wanted to step things further by adding Beans, Moi Moi and Fish. But i had to abort mission when I heard the price of what I have already bought.

Here is a picture of what i'm talking about. I bought these not too long ago.

onyx1470:
Na so I buy a plate of food for ikota , eat finish trash the take away ! Small time mk I go carry the take away for outside office to wash,I no see ham again

Sope Oti Lor

Na N200 you throway like that. People wey sabi the Value don carry am sharply

Puss360:
Okay... Cooking at home's better

Yeah thanks.

advanceDNA:
U just waste extra 200naira for plate... All the food nor even reach quarter of the plate...them suppose just sell am for ur hand make u swallow am once....

Lol I tell you man.

Naso I dey buy am oo.

I dey even dey wash and keep some of the Containers for my kitchen sometimes after use. E don plenty there now

I dey always reason say N200 no fit just waste like that

Puss360:
Everything in that plate worth it....
Besides, as it is, rice shouldn't be sold for anything less than #500 for one serving spoon....
Spaghetti is 1k.... So the 200 is worth it...
But why didn't you eat there so you won't spend #200 on takeaway plate or you would have gotten a food flask from your home so that #200 would have been diverted to an extra food

Babe you are actually right though.

But the thing is I was coming from an outing, I left home around past 05:00am. I never intended to get my meal outside today but I was kinda exhausted by the time I was through with the Task I went to do.

I actually planned to cook when I get home but plans changed.

bigzic:
This is not funny at all!!

I'm telling you bruh

The Food used to be filled to the brim of the container initially. But look at what we've got here now.

LillyandDaisy:
Oga, you sure say this one na dog, because the first picture looks scary ooh… please just be careful out there tsha

Lol you are funny though. Thanks.

Things are really getting out of hand.


Below pictures were some of the Foods I bought from the Eatery not so long ago.

Yayii I'm on front page.

Thanks Mods🙏

I went out very early today and I was already feeling tired on my way home so I wouldn't be able to perform some magic In the kitchen.

So I decided to branch my favorite food spot to buy some food.

To my surprise, The quantity of their food is now so small and costly. My eyes were sore but I just had to pay up and left the place Immediately.

The Breakdown

Jollof Rice:N300
Fried Rice:N300
Spaghetti:N200
Beef:N400

everythingtall3:
I swear intelligent people dey this nairaland , how you take know this dog name?

My younger sister was the one who actually bought the dog from one of her associates but she didn't ask for the name. I have told her to ask the person but no feedback up till now lol.

Infact I wouldn't lie, I have used reversed image search and i still couldn't get the exact name of the dog breed.

I finally remembered Nairaland and boom here we are.

GodHimself:
Thanks for waiting out the unserious elements.

Yeah thanks for the commendation.

Aaaaarghmed:
