Is it strange if I enjoy banku and okro with fried chicken every Sunday after church?

What is the strangest food combination you have ever eaten? Of all the strange thing I’m sure you’ve come across in these ‘dumsor-ridden’ days, your jaw will probably drop still if I were to invite you to a bowl of rice and okro soup. No? Maybe a sumptuous feast of fufu with ground pepper?

These might seem like weird combinations to you, but I have seen people eat some of the above and licked their bowl afterwards. Especially the okro soup and rice, it happens to be a friend’s favorite.

But what of bread and groundnut soup with snails? Or maybe you’d fancy some veggies with your fufu.

Back home, we enjoy fufu [plantain and cassava] with light soup but on one of my expedition, I was warmed by a lovely family who offered me yam fufu with okro stew. I felt goosebumps all over my body.
