DeleteChaiii Anon
DeleteMy son will say
Eggy Eggy I.e Begin Begi
I will always prefer firewood jollof rice any day anytime.
ReplyDeleteAnd moinmoin elewe.
DeleteFire wood food tastes better but with the stress of charcoal no way. Gas please!!!!
DeleteAbeg jare, gas is healthier. My mum is still suffering from the effects of mama put business with fire wood those days.
ReplyDeleteThe excessive heat and the feeling of dryness by staying close to the fire.
My mum still complains till tomorrow of 'ahu icha oku'
Same with my Mum, eye problem too.
DeleteA lady I know that was roasting corn and yam had a lot of miscarriages cos of ahu icha oku...Abeg gas is easier and better
Delete@Twins, your mum may be having post menopausal issues. My mum had that a lot esp inside the head, it gradually stopped.
DeleteCarbon monoxide and noxious gas poisoning. Firewood in this day and age?
DeleteIt's a big fat lie that food cooked with firewood taste better than with the one cooked with gas. I have used both so I know. Na false.
ReplyDeleteIt's not a lie. Even professional chefs will tell you that the smokery taste is divine.
DeleteIt's not true
DeleteFood cooked with gas tastes better than that of firewood
Na poverty dey make y'all think otherwise
Anne K are you a learner?
DeleteIt's actually true oh, it taste better but will not be caught dead using one again.
DeleteI think it's true,because my food tastes better when I travel to village
ReplyDeleteStella i sell food cooking gas is good because of eye problem but I prefers fire wood and is faster than gas
ReplyDeleteGas is best.
ReplyDeleteAnyway it is those that sell foods use fire woods
Not them alone o. I dashed into the bush last week for firewood when gas unexpectedly got exhausted. We were given food by good Samaritans this period,shey someone will be begging for money to fill when some have nothing to eat. Thank God this is a developing area. Corona pack your load and go biko
DeleteGas is sure the best
DeleteNot healthy cooking with Fire wood .
ReplyDeleteCooking with gas offcourse is better and stress less unlike firewood with smoke and blackness of the pot which pisses me off 🧐🧐
ReplyDeleteThe best jollof rice taste is through firewood cooking tho! The taste is heavenly 😋😋😋 especially the bottom pot
Food cooked with firewood taste better lol.
ReplyDeleteBut cooking with gas is more healthier.
ReplyDeleteOveruse or overemphasized adjective isn't right. It's either "more healthy" or simply "healthier".
DeleteGas!!! Who has time to be scrubing back of pot? We use firewood at home only during festive season and i dont go near it. I cant forget one Christmas that the fire melted my fixed nail😂😂
ReplyDeleteLol,sorry about that,I can't imagine how you feel that day
DeleteE go melt fake eyelashes too
DeleteTimes have changed. No one will even want to rent out a house where you cook with firewood. So gas for me.
ReplyDeleteSee ehn, God really saved us all in Nigeria. Most of us have inhaled smoke from home cooking or neighbors cooking with it. Nor be Oyibo de die from smoke inhalation or suffer severe lung damage.
Oyibo kids would all have had asthma from the firewood cooking. In boarding house those days, it was firewood they used in the kitchen. Chai.. l remember when we wanted to iron our uniforms and Sunday white. We took our irons to the kitchen to beg for charcoal. The smoke that entered our nostrils nor be small. If you used that iron in boarding house, line up here..
DeleteYes oh. Where I live in PH we had to sign that we won't use kerosene stove to cook. Only Gas or electric cooker. When I asked the landlord why he said he detests black soot on his walls. Guess what? Today the black soot from God knows where keeps redesigning the house. House that we painted in December is beginning to look black again. God please this year shall not pass us by. We will surely move into our own house in Jesus name, Amen.
DeleteAnon 14:10 chai you just reminded me of my secondary school days as a boarder, which of the Unity schools did you attend? I am guessing it was a unity school from the Sunday white cloth
DeleteCooking with gas is a life saver
ReplyDeleteYes it is
DeleteMy dad prefer food cooked in firewood esp if it's of much quantity than gas. cook Ekpang using gas? no it can't work for us. It all depends on what we're cooking and the quantity, which can happen once in a month
ReplyDeleteAbeg na lock down we dey...now that you've mentioned Ekpang how do you want me to get it now that my mind has started imagining.

DeleteFire wood taste na kpo na oyoyo.#Amicable
ReplyDeleteEven if it tastes better, using gas is still better.
ReplyDeleteFire wood jelof rice can sweet eeh but gas is the best.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there's differencein the taste, the fire wood thing is overhyped,I prefer gas cause I can't stand the smoke from firewood.
ReplyDeleteGAS is better jare... Suffer dey tire person too na
ReplyDeleteEnter shopping malls in the USA and see people buying packaged firewood for their grills.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, it was one of the first things that got cleared in the corona panic buying.
Nigerians attach status symbol to everything. It is not as if when those gas cylinders explode,
you have fire service to respond. 😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏
Ok na. So you, do you cook with firewood in your house??
DeleteYou clearly stated that people in the USA bought packaged firewood for grills not to boil water for tea.
@Aboki
DeleteWhat I mean is that Nigerians make everything to be a status symbol; cooking with gas, dead human hairs,
driving of cars etc. All these things are meaningless to enlightened people. It doesn't matter whether
someone uses firewood for grill and another uses it to boil water. All are COOKING!
Grills are outside in the garden!! And it's for grilling/bbqing not for cooking every day food.
DeleteOk! So, do you use firewood?
DeleteWe are talking about cooking three meals a day with firewood or gas. Not grilling. Using charcoal for grilling too is a choice. I use gas grill.
DeleteOyibo never suffered naa. If they used firewood like most of our parents did, they will not want to anymore. Besides, most grills have covers.
I' just waiting for shim to reply me first then we'll know if she's among the Nigerians that attach status symbo to everything.
DeleteEnd time critic, everyone in this world is wrong except you. Shior
Sometimes, you just like to score cheap points, very baseless comparism.
DeleteGrills are in the garden, how often do you use the grill? Do you grill during winter? Definitely not.
How do you compare grilling during the weekends or alternate weekends in summer to cooking every day meals on firewood??
@ 18.27, you are right. Oyinbos do not like stress at all, Imagine having to light firewood to boil water for coffee 3 times a day.
Cooking with gas abeg!
ReplyDeleteFire wood is a whole lot
Of stress.
I can cook with firewood,my mama thought me so,I will have a classy firewood cooking section in my 5star kitchen in d future
ReplyDeleteI prefer jollof rice cooked with firewood as long as I don't have to do the cooking. Can't stand the smoke or heat or soot. But I enjoy the flavor it gives.
ReplyDeleteIs Jollof rice the only thing you people eat?
DeleteEggs nko? You fry over firewood ba?
Yam nko?
Beans nko?
How does food that is covered taste better over firewood? Do you put the firewood inside the rice too?
Biko, just say you cant afford gas. Simple.
I prefer gas.
ReplyDeleteThey are talking of the taste not preference people!!!! Hian!
ReplyDeleteKelvin Dat Edo Boi (Stellz Cousin)
False falser falsest. God punish poverty!
ReplyDeleteI have done saw dust,fire wood,stove,but will always prefer gas,that washing of back of pot with charcoal all over is not funny jor
ReplyDeleteNa firewood we still dey use for my house na wetin my papa fit afford. I bought gas while still in 400l last year for my mum, but as we plenty na, when is refilled it won't last more than 2weeks even accompanied with firewood.
ReplyDeleteI don tire.....
Not as if I enjoy using firewood - the smoke is killing. We no longer wash the back or bottom of the pots again.
🤗🤗🤗
DeleteSomeday you will cook on a four burner gas and the backs of your pot will be sparkling clean.
It is well
DeleteWho no like better thing. To cook with firewood no be beans.
ReplyDeleteI use glasses so I don't go near firewood instead I will use charcoal stove
ReplyDeleteI was raised in the city so it's gas. But have you tasted Edo egusi+tomato soup cooked with firewood? Have you tasted well-prepared delicacies with firewood? The difference is clear, mbok. Even though I dont know how to use firewood, I love it and dont mind preserving that part of our cultural heritage in my backyard someday. Only black man no dey like wetin him get.
ReplyDeleteIt is true, the food is much more flavourful, but it is not healthy. My grandmother cooked with firewood for many years and eventually she lost a lot of her vision. It is something to do occasionally not daily. I do not know if inhaling the smoke does anything to your lungs overtime, but vision is too critical to me, just not worth it to cook with firewood exclusively.
ReplyDeleteFood cooked with firewood taste better mbok
ReplyDeleteGood on cooked on firewood actually test better(has this kind of local taste) unlike the one cooked on gas but it's a no for me.
ReplyDeleteI no Sabi make firewood, infact if you make the fire and I do mistake tocuh am, the fire go quench na only smoke I go dey produce..

Food cooked with firewood taste nice but I prefer gas oo.
ReplyDeleteWho no Sabi cook no go Sabi cook,either �� wood or gas...
ReplyDeleteI thank God for where I am today,cos that firewood show me shege.
When we moved into our house, we had a lot of unused wood. So we started cooking with the wood. Even when our own finished, my siblings and I would scout the neighborhood for wood. It was a developing area. We'd ask some homeowners if we could carry the ones they were no longer using, they gave us. I was responsible for making the fire and I got so good at it that even during the rainy seasons, I could make a bonfire without a drop of kerosene. My secret was achara tree, I'm not sure if the English name is bamboo or baobab. I'd chop it in smaller pieces and put in a sack. Oh memories!
ReplyDeleteThe last time I went home, I went to the backyard and saw my fireplace now desolate, cos my mom cooks with gas now. I remembered how my boyfriend would climb the neighbor's fence and gist with me while I made fire and cooked.
My point is, food tastes better when the heart is cherry. Doesn't matter how or what you cook with.
I enjoy reading your stories
DeleteI'm just imagining you telling bed time stories as a grandma 😍😍
Haha it would be so much fun then 😘😘
