As individuals, we all have different preferences when it comes to the food we eat. Some of us have a very sweet tooth while others have a not so very sweet tooth. Some of us have allergies while others are free to eat whatever they want. Some of us have strict dietary rules to follow while others are free to eat whatever, whenever. As they say, life is never fair and it will never be. But sometimes we do had choices, especially when it comes to what we wish to eat. Not when we are kids though. lol.
As a kid, I did not really have a say in what we were going to eat. Even though I did have a say sometimes, I knew to eat whatever I was given because I mean, I’m not contributing anything to the food and all I had to do was eat because I was being fed healthy and well. Now that I’m older, I wish I was a child because man, good and healthy food is expensive out here. I’m not even going to lie about it.
Speaking of food, i have never really been a fan of meat. Be it beef, chicken or what have you. I would like to believe this is because I always seem to have a problem with my teeth anytime I have to chew hard meat. I can literary hate toothache and discomfort the entire day. Another reason would probably be because I’m a very lazy person and when it comes to food, I’m even lazier. I always want the easy way out. I don’t like food that would make me have to put in a lot of stress to consume.
If there’s one thing I hate the most, it has to be chicken wings. I mean where do I even start from? Who even invented the whole idea of eating chicken wings. Well, one man’s meat is another man’s poison. Most of my meals are taken with either eggs, sausage or some other sort of protein. I do eat meat, but not everyday and if I should be banned from taking meat, I don’t think it would make any difference in my life. It’s like taking one fish out of the sea. I know people who love meat so much but when with them being around and taking meat all the time, I don’t believe I would be convinced to to break the ban because I really don’t have any reason to.
Someone out there would probably break this ban in a day because they love meat. But me, if there was an award for not eating meat, I think igwe would have had to give me that award.
