If you were someone like me who dislikes eating a lot of pepper in your meals and happened to be very hungry one night and were offered a food blessed with all the pepper in the world, which would you choose: sleep hungry or die by pepper?

This was a difficult option for me to make after a hectic day, having only the opportunity to eat in the morning, after a series of meetings and day's activities, I had to choose between eating this spicy lunch prepared by @olujay and sleeping hungry.

First and foremost, the dish was traditionally prepared as white rice and stew. The reason it looks like this, this kind of jollof look, is because I chose to sleep hungry and consume the food the next day. It was late at night when I opted to eat, about 11 p.m., and I couldn't be worrying myself out over cooking anything or eating something that could lead me to die in my sleep.

Olujay isn't a bad cook; he's more like me. We are somewhere in the middle since we are neither exceptionally good nor exceptionally bad. But, to be honest, I don't like going into the kitchen, but I don't have a choice since else, man would starve.

I slept hungrily the night before... It's something I'm used to, and I also opted not to eat last night since I don't want to wake up wondering about what to eat.

Two spoons can already be seen on my plate in the images above. Can you imagine Olujay stealing a spoon from my meal while I'm writing this article? He came over to steal some of my food. He ate over 90% of the food he cooked, while I ate nothing.

I'm hungry right now, especially since I didn't eat last night. If I order breakfast from my favourite cheap restaurant right now, @olujay will most likely want to join me to finish it... He refers to me as a foodie, yet he seems to forget that we share many features.

This title really cracked me up.
For me, I'll eat the food like that o, let me be eating the food and be fanning my mouth, but I will eat it like that, I don't think I can sleep hungry, I not used to it and I can never be used to it, I'll rather get used to eating pepper. And please, pepper will not make you die in your sleep ๐Ÿ˜‚.

I've actually slept hungry a good number of times and that was when I was in boarding school but I refused to let myself get used to it because they were all very bad experiences ๐Ÿ˜‚.

Sorry about your friend eating your food he's only showing you love ๐Ÿคฃ.

Smiles... You are doing really well regarding engaging....

I have slept so many times with an empty stomach. With so much hunger... I have lost count. That was the time when I was very poor, I had absolutely nothing to sustain me. I wasn't on Hive that time though...

Haba!!! Are you not sure Joe did that on purpose? Or don't he knows you do not like spicy food? Well, do eat spicy food sha but I always get something like sweet or gum when I know the food is too spicy.

But wait! How did only Joe ate 90% and the food is that spicy or is it that you don't like it at all or do what?

๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ I know my questions don too much abi? Make I try stop for there ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ.

For me, I will eat the food but that's only if I'm really hungry but most times I sleep like that because I'm not a foodie ๐Ÿ˜.

Actually, it was a mistake. I bought the wrong proportions this time...๐Ÿ˜‚
Even me, the excellent chef, had my stomach set on fire.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜ญ

How did only Joe ate 90%

He was actually telling his own story here.

If you see the mountain @starstrings01 moves... you will be singing "you move mountains" ๐ŸŽถ when he serves his food.


For me, I will eat the food

I am sure he had eaten somewhere before he came back. Who would turn down Olujay's cuisine? I know Hope wouldn't.

Okay, I totally understand that it happens even to me. So sorry for setting your own stomach on fire, lolz.

Like you mean he was the one that ate 90% or what, the story nor clear for there, hehe.

Abi oo, because the Emmanuel that I know is not one to reject food when he is so hungry but seeing that he ate later, is like he didn't really ate from outside.

So you are part of those that likes eating pepper... I am okay with eating food with pepper, but it should have quite a limit to it. you get.

I didn't eat in my dream oh.

Unrelated, but you and your brother are like twins!

Everybody says this... I guess we look alike a lot right?

"Man shall not live by bread alone." But I am glad the word "alone" is there. Why shall I now like food?๐Ÿ˜‚

What went wrong is that I bought the wrong proportions of pepper. Even me, the chef, had my stomach on fire. I just could not go to bed hungry.

I do not actually like peppery foods.

You guys looking so fresh like fresh

Then you will continue to eat pepper rice as dinner, lunch and breakfast ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ because I'm very sure @olujay enjoys eating pepper like myself..... sometimes last week I prepared stew and it was as so spicy and testy so after having a test a friend of mine asked " your pepper still remain?"
Innocently I answered yes then she said you should have completed what you started by adding the whole of it๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

I fear you o, thou i can handle a bit of spiciness, but this range you are talking about is a no no for me,

@starstrings01 hot stomach won't even allow me sleep, too much pepper hurts my tummy, I've slept hungry most night not because of no food o, sometimes it might be because I don't just feel like eating that particular food, let just say I'm a picky eater, reason why I'm still slim steady๐Ÿ™‚

I would not eat a spicy food, unless you want me to display a little for you because I would surely dance alanta, if I go ahead and eat it, I wonder what makes the rice and stew to turn jellof rice overnight, if the stew radiate lolsss.

So many people dislike to cook but it's great that you do cook something, becuase you do not have to be a perfect cook before you do that.

Olujay is taking advantage of you, maybe he wants to grow more fatter than you but I would tell you what to do, when the restaurant bring the food for you, Lock yourself Inside and eat, only open the door when you are done eating.

Well, it is good to see you guys in funny way.

According to the question you asked us to choose?
I would love to choose "sleep hungry" because I don't like too much of pepper in my food. If I should eat peppery food that means, toilet will be my bedroom.

You guys actually look alike.

Thank you for this piece.

I admire your courage to sleep hungry, but I don't think I can say the same for me. Am a foodie so yea, I would eat that food no matter how spicy it is. Sleepy hungry is not an option at all. @olujay is my man, we foodies are not picky eaters.
