Taste for food and little combination `3rd March, 2022`. Nature made it that there are varieties of food on earth available for mankind. From plants to animal and Sea food. Thanks to nature because personally, I have an old school with food, especially the sea food. So yummy!. I could possibly boast of eating every food on this planet, but since I've not toured around, I think am good at my local dishes and little foreign already tasted. Food is life, an essential for all living things. Today as was talking with my little niece, I asked her what she had today, she said some slices of bread with two eggs as breakfast, cowpea in the afternoon and she would have rice as dinner. That is very nice, I replied. After speaking with her, I thought about having two slices of bread as Breakfast with two or no eggs. Wow! me. I don't think am eating that alone. The last time I tried it, two hours later, I saw myself struggling with pot and gas cooker to prepare something heavy to eat. `check out my yummy sponsors`. Nice idea from my Aunt who administered the idea of having light breakfast with just bread and egg. I would rather take it without thinking about it as breakfast than take it in the name of breakfast. But come to think about it the more, a friend during a discussion once told me his experience at the boarding school where they were served tea and Same bread daily as breakfast. What a training o said nodding my head. As they ate this every morning, none of them were happy taking it alone. Some had to smuggle provisions to eat without the porters seeing them otherwise they would face expulsion. His stories were nice at hearing but not a good idea to me in reality because maybe am not used to it. I know it so good to have a little or light breakfast but for me and my body system, I will rather skip it than take a little. If I am to take the bread and egg, I would go hungry soon again but I can stay till noon with an empty stomach. So, I think this has to deal with getting used to it. What about taking only tea or coffee in the morning? so many people do this so we'll. I have few of my school mates do that too. In an empty stomach, they take beverages and feel good till noon. I gave it a try once and it all seemed as I was taking just warm water. It never stopped me from taking my noodles which really is always available in my cupboard. Daily, my breakfast goes to noodles or plantain and source, then at noon, I take some carbohydrates, either yam or rice then evening, proteins like beans and lots of vegetables and fruits. This has been my cycles for now until maybe I visited my town or any outing. Nature presents us abundance of food, fruits and vegetables. The beauty of these available is that hey can be mixed to get another fantasy out of them. I once had a crazy roommate who mixes everything she eats. She makes stew for bread a d wat them together and most times, eats bread with soups. She likes it and even when I took a bit of the mixture, the stew was good with bread but I never tried it again. I always love it when I travel to the village because I tend to see more varieties of food to eat. Pounded yam and okra soup or the Nigerian egusi soup. Roasted plantain and beans etc. these are food that stole my heart in the village. I just have love for them and can't wait to learn how to make them. I hope to have some this coming weekend. What are those food combinations that you like with bread? I would love if you share them on the comments. Thanks for reading and have a great time this month.
