Mixed feelings. If people like it, that's potentially great business for black restaurants and cooks.

However history has shown that non black people like things black people make while holding on to their hatred of black people and Tik tok is a platform dominated by the two most outwardly racist groups on earth. Theyll find a way to gentrify this and write black people out of it.
Get your daps breh :mjlol:

I make a mean Okra & Egusi soup. My son will only eat African food, so I had to finally reach back to my mom and rehash recipes and be scolded at the same time. I've mastered fried rice ,jollof, tomato stew, and suya. Next step is meat pie, ugba (African salad), yam with pepper soup.

I have a question. If Igbos and Yorubas are two separate ethnic groups, why do you all eat the same foods if your languages are different?

Do the two groups have their own separate specialty dishes?

Nigeria is a country that has a hodge podge of ethnic groups. With the intermixing through marriages and migration, some Igbo staples have become national dishes. For example Eguisi soup is a eastern Nigerian dish prior to its spread across Africa. Also not every food we eat is cooked the same way but could be called the same name. Dishes like jollof, suya, meat pie, rice and stew, plantain are popular dishes that are eaten in West Africa in general. Dishes that are more specific to igbos are Oha Soup, Olubo Soup, Ofe Onugbu, Ogbono Soup, Ofe Owerri, Abacha, Nkwobi, Ugba, Agidi & Beans, etc.

That's 100% true.
