Yeah I guessed that some would be sour... Stores tries too hard to avoid that.
I've seen jollof rice somewhere. What's so special about party jollof rice? is it because of the people you were having it with?
No, the method of cooking is different. Firstly, it is prepared for a large number of people compared to homemade which is for a few persons. They try to put more spice and cheaper ingredients and make the rice a bit burned. It's weird why we grew up prefering the odd rice. I think the party plays a role too.
Lol, I just typed rubbish. .I guess there isn't any valid explanation... We just like it 😅
