A Huge Flavor Flop

in HiveGhana6 months ago (edited)

Before I learned how to cook, everything tasted okay in my mouth. I mean so far as it was edible, I wouldn’t struggle to eat it. Most of my friends that were terrible at cooking used me at their tasting officer because they knew that I would say what they wanted to hear. Oh I was part of the bad cooks association myself. Normally, anytime I cooked and then my friend visited, that’s when I give a full speech about how I hate pepper and how I didn’t add salt because the sun didn’t come out. All sort of excuses.

Finally, when I learned how to cook I became a legit tasting officer. I could taste food and judge with my full chest. I could now tell if the curry was too much or the the oil was not enough. I won’t even lie, I like food.
The most important this is that I am not picky when it comes to food. I eat everything as far as it’s edible for me except pear because I react to pear. Most of my friends like it when I visit because they know how easy it is to cater for my eating needs.

So as a non picky eater if I say this particular food isn’t nice believe me that I’m telling nothing but the truth. I don’t know if you’ve eaten burger before but there’s nothing wrong with the normal beef burger but have you tried chicken burger? Hmmm, the first time I tasted chicken burger I was like “what the….” Oh I didn’t stop eating it though. It didn’t taste good in my mouth but I mean there was no way I was going to just let it go. Naaaa.

You know, the chicken wasn’t bad. In fact the chicken was the main highlight because it was so good but then eating everything collectively? It was terrible. The funny part is I was on a date and my date told me not to try it because it’s not worth the hype but I told him it might be different that day, oh it wasn’t. I don’t know if the lettuce was dipped in bitter sauce or it was bitter leaf or coco yam leaf. It tasted like they added ampesi stew to the burger layers.

Oh, ampesi stew is basically garden eggs stew. Oh yes, it tasted like there was garden eggs in the burger. It got to a time it felt like there was koose(bean cake) in it and as if I was now drinking porridge with koose. I don’t want to spoil anyone’s hopes if they are yet to try chicken burger. Probably, it was just from where I bought it. Good thing is that even though it wasn’t nice it doesn’t mean I’ll say never to it. If I get the chance to try it elsewhere I won’t hesitate at all.

Well, bad or not I ate it and finished everything so I feel guilty for complaining. Will I recommend it? Of course, I would like to know how others think of it. It could probably be a problem with just where we got it from.

😂😂 ewoooooooooooooooo, let me not say anything.

Hmm, let me not say anything about this date before you say I am jealous 😅. I thought it was you and I against the world but you've sold me out. 😤

Don’t say anything please 🤣

But date can be between two friends?🥹

I have said what I have to say already.🤣🤣

This date doesn't seem like friendship date oo. It's okay. I'm going to cry in my corner😞

It’s just friendship date, he’s my brother in Christ😂🥹

From friendship to brother in Christ 😂, wow. The pain keeps getting worse 🥹

Oh come on you know nobody can take your place 🥹

This was such a fun read! Your description had me laughing, especially the part about the lettuce tasting like it was dipped in bitter sauce. Maybe you just had bad luck with that particular burger. I'm sure there's a perfect chicken burger out there waiting for you.

Oh yeah, it should be waiting for me till I get it🥹

I’ve had a burger just twice in my life. I don’t even know what burger it was. And although everyone around me enjoyed theirs, I’ve just realized it’s not my thing. Eating things together is not my thing. Same goes for shawarma. I get that it’s nice, but I would really prefer to not eat everything together

Oh I get it, sometimes eating everything together just makes it bitter.

I can only imagine how you'd judge your chefs if you happen to be one in a cooking competition. Omoh your descriptions of how the food tastes is not here oo😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Story of my life 🧬
I don't eat anyhow, I have this high taste for high quality foods 😉

After reading your post, all I think about is food 🙄🙄. The last food looks like Beans cake (Akara), there are so many foods I yearn to taste in this life.

🤣🤣 yes it is bean cake

OMG! Chicken burger tasting like koose and pap, plus the sauce tasting like garden egg stew ??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I know that curiosity will definitely make me try it🤣🤣🤣.
Please send me the address, I need to meet the chef that made that one.

🤣🤣🤣

But wait, did I just read that, oh my world
Didn't know that one has to wait for the sun to come out before adding salt to food. Abenad ooo 🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣🤣

It tasted bad and you finished it? 😏😏😏😏

But then you are right about some food because they are really not worth the hype people give them.

#dreemerforlife

I had to

First of all, I would like to know what the porridge is made of before I proceed further in that regards. More so, what are the particles inside the bean cake? We call it akara at our end and Saturday breakfast never set without am.

Secondly, whoever invented Chicken burger should be burnt on the stake because that thing na abomination. The first day I had it was my last. That one, the Chicken did not even taste good. I don't know if it's just me but anything Chicken pastry no dey ever go well... Well except chicken Shawarma sha but still, beef is always better and I often enjoy the Chicken Shawarma if its accompanied with beef and hotdog, otherwise no! thank you very much.

Lastly, Abenad, at what point does fry fry constitute to you being a great cook?? Take 🎤 and answer, all of us at #dreemport are waiting for your defense.

Foodie! Hehe

I’m also not a picky eater. As long as it is tasty, I’m there. And I agree with you. Chicken burger is okay but you see beef, that’s the real deal.

!LADY

Yeah I agree

The burger looks very tasty tho, maybe it's the place you got it from.
After seeing your post now I feel like eating a burger 😩
