Cooking oil for the rich.
I liked this oil too much,I didn't even realize when it disappeared from the market. I remember buying it last when I was still in Abuja around 2013 or so. The last time I went to ask for it in the some few years ago, traders were wondering what planet I was from. Honestly, I didn't know it's now old school.
