| “So You Eat Rotten Cassava?” - White Man Asks His Nigerian Wife by GistMedia0(op): 1:06pm On Apr 18, 2024 |
In a viral video circulating on social media, a cultural exchange turned into a moment of astonishment as a white man questioned his Nigerian wife about the process of making fufu, a traditional West African staple dish. The video, which has sparked both amusement and debate online, captures the husband's candid reaction as his wife demonstrates the intricate steps involved in preparing fufu, a dish made from fermented cassava. "So you eat rotten cassava?" the husband incredulously asks, his tone a mixture of surprise and skepticism. The wife, unperturbed by her husband's reaction, patiently explains the fermentation process that gives cassava its distinct flavor and texture in fufu-making, emphasizing its significance in Nigerian cuisine and culture. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1COBFPIHQ5A 1 Like 2 Shares

Let's not be sentimental . It's hard to eat food from people from other countries. When I perceive the aroma of Indian food my stomach turn. It was awful. Even as a Nigerian you can't even eat some Hausa people food . The reason is because you are not from Hausa Abeg make una stop to dey drag the guy... 60 Likes 3 Shares |

GanagiBitrus:Even Yogurt is fermented milk. So is Cheese that they love so much. In France the Cheese section in Supermarkets stink too. And Kimchi too. And Pickles. And Sauerkraut. And .... (Does he want me to go on?) He doesn't know what he is missing. That meal is filled with probiotics. Add the vegetables from the complimenting soup and you are adding like 10 years to your life span.  Himneva C. Somtin (2024) 25 Likes 3 Shares

SMH... There's a difference between fermentation and decay. I would expect an educated person to make this clear distinction especially when it comes to food processing. Abi the idiot doesn't eat cheese or tofu?!! I'm even certain he drinks alcoholic beverages too. Ignorance truly knows no tribe or race. 6 Likes |

It's fermented, not rotten, same process involved in making beer, yoghurt or cheese and they consume those A LOT! The white dude is just an average ignoramus from the west. They lack cultural awareness and make reckless comments. 16 Likes |
