ZINNYBANKS:What if s/he can’t afford it (hence the probable reason for this post)? O.P.: ndo, o? |
Peterobi90:You think but you don’t know. This is the funny thing about people. |
Peterobi90:Mr 1990, you’re too young to be talking like this. |
You’re self-aware and that’s more what can be said for a lot of Nairaland guys. Well done. |
Emperor4tune:Piss on a load of money? Hian. |
Mamayam:But if the OP’s taking phenelzine that might not be such a good idea (at all). But yeah, OP. Clomipramine knocks that over-cum nonsense to bed. There’s just one or two drug-drug interactions you need to be aware of so you don’t suddenly develop marked serotonin syndrome or hypertensive crisis and die. Only when all important drug-drug interaction odds have been ruled out or minimised should you be taking clomipramine for premature cumming. |
mariahAngel:Not all 7 billion people in the world can be the same. My quirky food-exploration niche that I express a lot on Nairaland is just one side to me so it is what it is. I’m situations like this I couldn’t care less about seeming odd or a bit weird. The utazi/water-leaf stuff does sound interesting, though. |
Utazi soup. That’s what’s underrated. It’s not all about oha, okazi and ewedu. |
Kajaard:This guy even can’t afford a hotel. He was swallowing raw garri and pepper with his “wife” the other time in lieu of a better meal. I’m disgusted. |
Actually, don’t (re)marry. I remember exactly who you are (abusive predator). |
Go and marry someone. |
Is Yul Edochie going to play the candidate who gets struck with temporary madness? |
Peledonomy:Definitely cooking gas. Few states in Nigeria outside Igboland cook as meticulously well as Akwa Ibom so why not facilitate that with gas? I might ask for palm oil and Oron crayfish from you one of these days. |
Cooking gas. Forget keke. |
Who is that mad person who’ll vote for anyone besides Obi? |
armyofone:We don’t cook waakye in the first place. We drink zobo rather than use the leaves to cook rice. |
Greed, coercion, (klepto)mania. |
budaatum:Lesson learnt, tag removed. And not a moment too soon. |
And what bank exactly opens on a Sunday? |
Come on, Seun. I’ll bribe you with all the agege bread money can buy if you get this ting removed for me. I’ll cook you turkey jollof with Blue Band, ose-Nsukka and goose fat, sef. Just get it gone. |
And I mean, R.I.P. to the guy, like. |
MITCHELL96:Stuff like this (especially involving arranged marriages) used to be way worse back in the day. But at the end of the day (and he’s old enough to be her great-granddaddy, really) they’re both adults. Plenty of people like older so it is what it is. |
Hatrick01:It’s not only women who can bring paradise to earth cooking-wise. Did you know that? |
johnw47:It’s very bad administration indeed. God will punish them. |
I’m better-looking than him and I ain’t even a buff-ting like that. |
budaatum:Yeah, it’s been about 7 days and it ain’t budging, man. |
One Ghana food in particular that doesn’t quite slap with me is banku (their version of okro soup). It’s almost like it’s trying to be surf-and-turf ogbono (if ever there even was such a thing Naij.-ends in t’first place) but with a sprinkling of undercooked okra and all-in-all it just doesn’t taste nice. Yoruba people (Ondo-lite people, who actually have a unique and brilliant take on it, aside, obviously) are also terrible with okra soup. You might say that at least alasepo variants have vegetables in it but the average Yoruba person isn’t really about the ugu/greens life and they can’t even make okro draw without a blender/mortar and pestle or kaun. Nonsense like that can seriously mess with your stomach but instead of learning how to cook these things properly they mix their half-done okro with broom-infested ewedu. They really are a shambles when it comes to their silly soups (efo riro isn’t bad but that’s completely different). I love my woman-dem/man-dem from all corners of Nigeria but on the topic of food mainstream Yoruba (as in morning to do with Ekiti, Ondo or the interior chunks of Osun state) soups are mostly pretty awful. |
gloryhomemaker:Ah, the thing is I meant Nri-Awka/Oka as a geographical axis but nni-oka (as in corn fufu) is a good swallow for ogbono. Ever eat it with anything else, did you, when you were with your mum? I actually ate the akara together with the ukwa (same bowl, sef) but common sense would probably suggest I wasn’t supposed to. I was just feeling adventurous. |
mariahAngel:I don’t like onugbu that much, t.b.h., (although being from the part of Anambra I’m from it’s very-much a quintessential staple ofe) but I’m a sucker for egusi and ukwa with unwashed bitter-leaves (I had some of the latter yesterday with a sprinkling of akara). I think that’s how it is with me more than anything (a mixture of sweetness and unadulterated bitterness). But generally Nri-Oka people (my axis) can’t do without onugbu, especially my auntie Nkechi (she was renowned for the making the best onugbu, ukwa and small chops in Awka). The grassroots and meticulous cooking gene rubs off on me from both sides of t’family but onugbu’s something I just leave to the experts. I wouldn’t know how to prepare that if my life depended on it it’s that challenging, IMO. And to be fair I’m not even from Nnewi so I can do without loving pure ofe onugbu like that. |
mariahAngel:I think they use sandwich ingredients (cheese and tuna) to flavour/garnish their soups, alongside copious amounts of shite shito pepper, to tell you the truth. Onugbu-capable they most-certainly are not. |
mariahAngel:That’s true but it’s not like Yoruba people for the most part are any better. I agree that the difference between Nigerian and Ghanaian food is a bit hard to swallow when you look at it especially through a more Igbotic lens. Ghana jollof is neither here nor there. I honestly don’t feel like it’s too bad but it ain’t better than Senegalese or Naija jollof. |
No but I’m eating akara and ukwa now. |
