Somali cuisine habits that need to die

[McLovin]

Adding raisins and other weird (fries?!) shit to rice


Confusing lettuce with "salad"


Dousing everything with canola oil


Managing to make tea unhealthy


Tuna samosa. I find it offensive


Federation



Were doing everything else right, But as for the rest of these.....

Managing to make tea unhealthy

Bruh the only way to drink tea is to douse it with sugar

To hell with white people tea

I honesty don't see how anyone can enjoy it. It completely masks the flavour of the tea

I don't f*ck with tea and coffee. I would only have them if someone offered them to me out of respect.

Somali shaah bigays


I tried tuna sambuusa it wasnt bad



I still to this day say salad instead of lettuce cause thats what it is


All those stuff arent even that bad

One thing I dont like is that Somali butter the taste and smell is just too much

Canola oil?! People cook with that? We strictly use only Extra Virgin/cold pressed Olive oil. Coconut oil is great too.

90% of your list is my favourite things.

Laakin can you please add calool to your list - stinks up the house and has the strangest texture in the world. Once Hooyo tried to slip it into my suugo - like I didn't smell tripe the minute I walked through the door - she thinks she's so smooth walaahi.

I never get cold. One of the perks of giving up the tea and coffee.

For those of us in less positions of affluence like yourself. Saliid cadey is staple. Although we do reserve a bottle of cheap olive oil for finishing touches

Wallahi at events and gatherings you'll be damn sure they add raisins, fries and some light colouring to the rice



Warm shaah with sugar iyo caano




But I hate it when hooyo or aabe add lettuce to every fucking meal They'll put some lettuce on pizza to make it "healthy"

But there needs to be a drastic reduction of sugar and oil in the Somali diet. It creates either skinny diabetic people or fat diabetic people

 

[Merca]

The Iraqis put raisins in their rice too, I don't like it but fries though

High sugar diet was okay in the homeland because we used to burn it off walking around in the hot sun.

Western deathstyle is not compatible with the Somali diet. We need to adjust.
