Which of these meats would you eat?
Did our recent exposé on weird combinations that Nigerians love make you think you had seen it all? Behold, another update has dropped. Zazu zeh!The latest news in town is that some of you eat the meat of strange animals too. Really? How did we even get here?
If you hear your name during this roll call, just fall out by identifying yourself in the comment section.
And we don’t want your shalaye.
1. Snake Meat
The same opp that got us chased out of the Garden of Eden? That aside, how are you able to not think about all the slithering as you eat? Chile!
2. Dog Meat
This is not even a Calabar thing because news reaching us is that our brothers and sisters in Ondo and Ogun also enjoy eating man’s best friend.
“Dog meat pepper soup anyone?”
3. Monkey Meat
Where to start? You dare to an animal that shares a 98% DNA with us? Is it sapa or just some certain sense of exploration?
As if we didn’t learn anything from Ebola and Covid.
4. Bat Meat
So, the birds that walk among us are no longer enough. We’ve migrated to the ones that fly in the night only. What’s the game plan? To transform into Nigeria’s Batman, right?
5. Maggots
Bayelsans and Deltans, please fall out and plead your case. Maggots?
6. Cat Meat
Even having it in the house breeds evil forces, why are we putting it inside our body system? African mothers will not like this.
7. Frog Meat
In fact, frogs are commercially sold in certain parts of the country. Asides from deep frying, people use frog meat to make pots of stew/soup.
8. Roaches
History turned a blind eye when Nigerians said winged termites–popularly known as Esunsun–were the next best thing to eat. Even bees.
But, why are you people also adding cockroaches to the list? Stop it!
9. Lizards
The monitor lizard. I thought we left eating reptiles to Asians. Seems we were not all thinking alike.
10. Pork/Pig Meat
Last but not the least, pigs. Yes, it has been normalized but still weird. Why are eating animals that spend all day in mud? Comment Oink if this is you.
#SabiChow dishes light servings of everything food and drinks. This edition highlights ten weird types of meat Nigerians love to eat.
