My Journey Through Bizarre Food Pairings

If you’re looking for a food lover, look no further, I’m the one for you. I love food and I live for food. But how much do I eat? Little to nothing. As human, we can’t do away with food because we literally need food to survive. Each day, we eat different kinds of meals depending on what we crave from.

We have different people from different parts of the world with a variety of foods to suit their palettes. What we eat here in Ghana is far different from what our big brothers in Nigeria eat and same as those in South Africa and across the globe. That’s the beauty of food. I love to try out new foods all the time because why not? There’s always a new taste out there to explore and so why will I deny myself that opportunity.

However, in as much as I love to try different kinds of foods, there are some weird food combos I’ve come across which I don’t think make sense in the very least. Some of them shock me to the core because how on earth is someone in his right mind resting something I this? So let me just run your through two foods that I can’t just make sense of.

First, tell me why people eat indomie with bread. You might be thinking you out the bread as meat on the indomie but no, they rather put the indomie in the bread like the way we eat bread with egg and I don’t know if it really makes sense to anyone. Personally, I’m not interested in trying out something like this cos it’s really not for me. What happened to jam, butter and honey? Where did all this come from.

Now that’s not even the worst. Back in high school, my headmistress used to stay in the school cos she had an apartment in one part of the school. I’ve known her since I was a child so we were very comfortable with each other and I could go to their house and all of that. One time, she called me to help her with something and I met her eating in her kitchen. You guess what she was eating. Rice with okro stew. I was so disgusted because who does that. I asked her about it and she told me that’s what they eat where she comes from and even invited me to try it but i rejected. I went home and told my mom about my new discovery only for my mom to tell me it’s normal and I’m like what?😂

Till today, I’m still in shock because I never thought people ate stuff like this but we listen we don’t judge. These are some of the weirdest food combos I’ve come across.

all images belong to me.
