While growing up in my state some people do use it, but a very little of it in their soup. Locust beans.

Just minimum and you won't notice or smell it that much.

But my traveling to the south east what I saw there in some places will make you vomits. Especially some local restaurants. They put too much locust beans in their soups and the whole environment will be smelling. The people you will meet around there sees it as normal but if you are a stranger you can't stand it. And if you are a very irritating person you will likely throw up.


I still think some people are adding it too mucho

Locust beans and iru don't add any nutritional value to food. Just like the seasoning cubes, no tangible nutritional benefits to the body. It's all for the purpose adding flavours and spices, anything else is zero. This is the reason why people are advised to use these condiments in moderation.

Man, I totally get where you're coming from. My grandmother used to use it so sparingly that I actually grew to like the subtle depth it gave her stews, but then I had a bowl of soup at a roadside spot during a trip down south that nearly took me out. The smell was so aggressive it hit me before I even walked through the door. It's definitely an acquired taste, and while I respect the traditional "local" way of doing things, some of those cooks really go overboard. If you didn't grow up with that intense level of fermentation, it’s a struggle to keep your appetite. I usually just stick to home-cooked meals when I'm in those areas now to avoid the surprise.

Our problem is that our professors are lazy, they don't do any research.
Most of what we eat , drink and use are used because we met them so.
We have rarely done serious empirical test on them.
We need to research a lot, because some of our local stuff are very helpful, some could be toxic if applications are not really own.
BUT, IF I BE PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA, I GO BAN AKPU, FUFU OR SANTANA, THE SMELL IS EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE.
FROM THE FERMENTING TO THE SIEVING TO THE SELLING AND CONSUMPTION , NA VERY UNBEARABLE ODOUR.
JUST ENTER FINE DUPLEX WITH STATE OF THE ART FURNISHING, ONCE THEM DEY EAT AM OR JUST FISHED EATING IT, OMO YOU GO HATE THE MANSION AND PREFER TO ENTER MUD HOUSE.

The smell of locust beans is repugnant and generates body odour if you use it in your food consistently.
