I love food; What about you?

Food is life and one of the favorite things I like. Food helps to renew our energy and fit for the day's work. It gives nourished nutrients to the body.Most times I might eat little, and sometimes you have to wonder if something is actually eating my food.Cooking sometimes has its own disadvantages because most times after cooking, I will end up eating little or nothing at all. It's one of the days I will go for junk.Imagine having a well-cooked meal and still ending up having junk.

When I was in school, I prepared my meals for the week every weekend, and sometimes I cooked in big quantities and might end up throwing it away. Instead of wasting the food, I will dish it out to my friends or surprisingly bring it to their rooms.

Most of my friends know me for cooking a big quantity of food, so most times, whenever they visit, I will surely have a well-prepared meal.Having scheduled meals like having breakfast by 7am, lunch by 8pm, and dinner by 7 pm is not really my thing. I eat whenever I feel hungry. I might finish up cooking breakfast and end up eating by 12 pm, or I might skip dinner and end up eating by midnight.Will I enjoy quantity over quality? Most days I will go for quality.

Can you really enjoy tasteless food when you're full? I guess we all know the answer to that question. Most times, due to hunger, I might end up eating the same food I despised so much. I remember when I was in boarding school, I hated to eat porridge yam because the quantity was so small that after eating, you would still feel hungry, like you didn't eat anything, so instead of wasting my hunger. It was really right for me to go hungry, and I will know I'm hungry rather than eating something and still feeling so hungry. Luckily I had a friend I did trade and barter with.

I sell my portion of yam to her in exchange; she gives me money. So every Tuesday night I avoided the refectory knowing there's no dinner for me. I once told myself if I finished my secondary school without having an ulcer, then I wouldn't have an ulcer throughout my lifetime. I could remember days I sold my food with provisions strictly banned. I had no other choice but to stay hungry and swallow my saliva.Do you have any restrictions with food, probably health or otherwise? I have no restrictions when it comes to food, and most food that you prefer to have as lunch I might use for breakfast. Please don't tell anyone this secret. Come close; let me whisper into your ears.

“Most times I eat swallow as breakfast.”Yeah! I know you will surely criticize it; it's too heavy for breakfast. Most times when I know I will have a really busy day, I end up eating it in the morning, not a really busy day, but sometimes I feel like eating swallow in the morning. It keeps me fit throughout the day, and I might end up not snacking or eating lunch till I have my dinner. But whenever I have Indomie, once in a while I end up eating almost three hours later.I complement my food with fruits like oranges, pineapple, watermelon, and apples, but then I don't usually eat them all the time because of how expensive they could be, but then homemade fruit juice can go too.

No matter how busy my day would be breakfast is the least of my problems, I did not grow up eating breakfast so I still find it difficult to do so..

I miss breakfast too until one day I nearly fainted I have to stop.

Eating is a pleasure, some people see it like a task, and given we have to eat every day, better enjoy it.

I enjoy eating breakfast, it gives me the strength to start my day.

Your food habits are so relatable! Eating swallow for breakfast makes sense when you need energy for the day. Loved the boarding school food trade story!

Thanks.
