"Lost in Translation: Navigating Cultural Misunderstandings"

Ever tried explaining efo riro to someone who’s never had it? Or hearing cheese curds described as ‘squeaky’? 

Cultural quirks make life endlessly fascinating. 🌎🍲

Sharing culture can be as confusing as it is rewarding. 

In Lagos, I once had to explain why egusi soup wasn’t just ‘vegetable soup.’ In Winnipeg, my description of suya as ‘spicy barbecue’ led to a comical misunderstanding about seasoning.

 These cultural differences remind me of the joy of learning—and that food always bridges the gap.
