There is this craving I get when i step outside, I unnecessarily want to eat junk foods, that feeling of eating the food outside my house gives me this great joy. Home made foods no matter how sweet they are don’t give me this special feeling compare to junk foods.
When growing up, I lived with my grandma, whenever she takes me out, I purposely don’t eat at home. I usually claim I wasn’t hungry because I was hoping that when we get outside, I will tell her am hungry so she can buy outside food, mostly junk foods for me. At the first stage it worked, she used to buy them for me. Then suddenly that strategy stopped working, she always refer to the foods at home whenever I tell her I was hungry. Nigerians can relate when their mother make this statement “we have food at home”. When I was younger I always felt it was unfair, not until I became responsible for my finances, I knew my grandma was right when she said “we have food at home”.
Whenever am outside, all I think about is how to visit the nearest eatery to buy their food. If I find a particular eatery with delicious food, they automatically win my loyalty. It’s hard to cheat on them with someone else, you find me keep going back to them anytime am hungry.
I went out with a friend the other day to go watch a movie, while waiting for her, I decided to go try out the food in each of the eateries, of course I can’t try them all. So I tried as much as I could, I went for the first one( image with the scotch egg). At that moment I was very hungry so I couldn’t order for junk, I needed something better. I ordered for fried rice, peppered snail and Turkey. Trust me, it was worth every dime I spent on it, I was lost in eating it, I forgot to take pictures for this post. I remembered after but my plate was empty.
After that I decided to go for smoothie, the lady recommended a banana mixed fruit smoothie, one thing I hate about any thing with a little bit of banana inside is because, banana is a food flavor bully. Anywhere you insert banana, it overtakes the entire food flavor, you end up just tasting banana. But the woman assured me that I would like it, I bought it and it was worth it. The smoothie was great, sorry i didn’t take pictures of the smoothie also, but i was able to take the picture of the chapman and pink lemon mixer(I think that should be the name).
Donuts are beautiful confectioneries made from heaven, I love them especially those with jam inside. The beauty of biting it tasting the jam is heavenly, it gives that rewarding feeling and I love tasting that every time I eat donuts.
I tried the Krispy Kreme Donuts once, I went there with a friend, trust me the varieties of the donuts I saw there was insane, I felt like picking one out of every donut collection. I was indecisive in my choice, I had to make sure that any donut i chose was worth it.
It’s a been a long time i ate these donuts but I keep reminiscing about those wonderful feelings I felt while eating them. The moment I tasted these donuts I knew they were my soul mates. I can’t wait to reunite with them next time I go out.
