Steem4nigeria Accelerator Contest Week 79: The right food for the right moment
Food is one of the most important things that we need as humans. Sometimes, the fact that we are hungry would not even make us remember that we should have a balanced diet but all we just want to do is eat.
I’m in that mood tonight and I’ll just eat whatever I see at the moment. Let’s go to a few questions asked by the @Steem4Nigeria community.
Have you ever craved for a particular kind of food in a season? What was the name of the food? Tell us a little bit about the food.
Yes! I really do not know about you but as for me, I believe that there are some kind of food you will eat in a particular season which will go well than eating it just on a regular day.
A kind of food I have craved for and will forever crave for during the rainy season is Concortion Rice with fish inside it. Now, it should not be the regular fish we eat but stock fish which can be found anywhere in Nigeria.
Concoction Rice is a cheap way of making the Nigerian Jollof Rice and if it has fish inside, I’m good to go. As long as it is rainy season, I don’t mind eating this everyday of my life.
Name 3 weird food combo you have done and tell us how they tasted. For example I combined spaghetti and biscuit one time.. hahaha
I know this part of my article is going to crack you up. Will you believe that I have had Bread and Noodles before? If you ask me how it tastes, well, it had a great taste and I did that for a while before I stopped it and went back to the normal way of eating my Noodles.
Secondly, I’ve had Yam and Rice before. I know there may be a lot of weirdos here but if you are guilty of eating Yam and Rice, I’ll runaway from you, lol even though I’m guilty of that as well.
I can’t say precisely what the Yam and Rice tastes like. I remember clearly that I didn’t have enough foodstuffs back then at university and the only way I could eat was join the Yam I had with my Rice to make it enough for me.
Lastly, iced pap. This may not be a combo but freaking weird. The usual pap which everyone knows is the hot pap that is taken in the morning but for me, I love it more when pap is iced before I take it. This is not something I’ve done only one but I’ve done it so many times and I’m hoping to do more of it.
What inspired your food combo? And what was the effect to your body?
Hunger!!! This is my first inspiration to eating all those weird combos. Someday when I’m very hungry and there is nothing to eat, I will just add two different raw foods to make something and I’ll be fine.
Secondly, there are times when I watch weird food combos online and I decide to try them. That’s also a way I get inspired to try out my crazy combos.
Unfortunately, my body sometimes reacts to them by making me purge or I will be having an unsettled stomach.
Weird combos may be nice if we try them out but thinking about the aftermath, we will never want to give it a trial.
I’ll invite my three good friends

@akareen to join me on this contest.
The reason why I will dance to that of yam and rice is that, you're just increasing the potential of carbohydrates in your body.... Both foods produces starch..... What a combo? Though it's good for people with high percentage of protein and other diets.
And secondly, you made mention of the effects of eating such kind of combo. I guess, mostly the way we prepare those stuffs may be so annoying
