What food traumatised you?

[Macalin M]

Biting into cinnamon sticks and cardamom in bariis.

Biting into filfil is one of my annoying food experiences. It feels like betrayal. Why would my mum betray me

That and bariis with raisins. I hated it.

I can't remain silent about that walaal. I too have suffered in silence with bariis with raisins. Switch to cranberries instead - it's delicious

...cranberries in my bariis ?

I mix cranberries and salad though.

Are Somali moms making bariis or shaah? Smh

That and bariis with raisins. I hated it.

Hate that, when the raisin is fried and mixed with the fried onions and French fries, like why ruin the onions and fries with raisin?

Vimto with milk is a classic. Menta > Vimto though


I don’t know about the Fanta with milk though. That shits different. Never had it, never will.

Here they mix Sprite with plain yogurt

When my cousin cooked pasta with ketchup instead of tomato sauce, wallahi I wanted to uppercut her when I found out what I was eating.

Vimto and milk was the shit and if you wanted a month taste then it was menta. Fanta with milk is a whole other situation though, I don't know what that is and I'm pretty sure it's child abuse.

You really said that like it sounds better than eating raisins.

Bariis iyo cambuulo wax ka macaan. A stable diet in southern baadiye.

When my cousin cooked pasta with ketchup instead of tomato sauce, wallahi I wanted to uppercut her when I found out what I was eating.

May be that was her first time in the kitchen. No sane Somali switches tomato sauce with ketchup when making suugo. At least she tried to cook. Something young brats are reluctant to do as long as mom can be abused and works as a free maid.

Liver used to. But it has grown on me. I used to think that stuff was pitiful, but it’s completely flipped, and now I think made right it’s actually great (onions, salt, bell peppers and jalapeño bits). I don’t like it with lahoh though, I prefer it with French bread or homemade Khubz.

[Khadar999]

cooked onions that become slimy and soft

 

[General Asad]

Oh boy where do I start? Might as well change my middle name to Trauma.


Baroon juice (prune juice) mixed with apple juice

Those dry ass cookies in ziploc bags they sell at somali stores. Hard asf too, almost broke a tooth trying to bite into one


Shaah with too much filfil/ginger

Eating raw ginger when ginger ale would run out

Eating burnt ass malawax/sabayaad/canjeero because i made it
