JAPA: Food Is Very Expensive In America Lady Says She Spends $3k (N4.5Million) On Food Monthly..

[@Grace-oq7fh]

That 650 lady is absolutely saying the truth. I live in the state of Illinois and Yes! Prices has gone up since Covid

[@newworld4366]

I live here in California. She is saying the truth. African food is expensive here.

[@christyokoli9328]

Which kind truth is she saying.

[@coolkid8700]

I live in texas and the lady saying $650 per week for african food is being untruthful. If she said $650 per month that would be a lot more believable.

[@newworld4366]

Mind you I had lived in Texas for 3 years. Things are very cheap and there are no good jobs there compared to California even minimum wages now in Bay Area is around 20 - $25 hr. Stop assuming people are lying.

[@newworld4366]

That’s true. She saying the truth. I’m experiencing the same thing.

[@gbengaidowu8320]

Spending 3k on food is a very BIG lie, not even an overstatement... She should please give us the breakdown. This is lie in it's purest form

[@AmakaO-x2t]

Pls go to african store. Only fried fish and turkey plus a plate of soup cost me $45

[@newworld4366]

You a mad person oo and your entire generations. Why you think say the person dey lie? I pity the people that born you because you will never make it in life. I am a rich guy and I can buy anything that I want. If you’re the type that is doing 12 - $15 hr job obviously you can’t afford to spend good money on yourself.

[@christyokoli9328]

Stop lying. Who pays 650 dollars African food.

[@samueladesina5447]

Her lies broke the Internet and turned to a topic.

[@Peter_Ujadughele]

$2000 a month fa? For this America wey we all Dey? Kilode???

[@christyokoli9328]

That fair woman can lie.

[@newworld4366]

How on earth would you assume people are lying for sharing their personal opinion. People’s experiences are differs. You must be a big fool.

[@delomcoker]

African food is not that expensive,I live in America as well. If she could have said $150 for two weeks purchase I could have agreed with her. The most expensive snail per packet is not more that $40 so all what she is saying is lie

[@stellalucky275]

My wife prepares and processes original cassava, yam, intact, we don’t pretty much eat Naija food year round.

[@martinsojo5440]

She's saying the truth

[@somajay22]

California, Atlanta and may be New York is expensive but they still have improvisations like Aldi's, a dollar store other cheap stores you can switch to when you are not financially ok till you are good. 3k monthly in California and Atlanta is not expensive depending on your family size and what you are buying.

[@newworld4366]

God bless you. I can conveniently afford it. I take my family out to restaurants every now and then just to make them feel good.

[@TheValadejana]

It depends on where you live. It is true that you can spend that much in groceries but probably monthly, not necessarily every 2 weeks. African food in America is not cheap.

[@christyokoli9328]

Madam i live in United States. You are lying . Stop lying.God have mercy on you.

[@mikemike2311]

I will assume she is saying this bec she own a business and that’s what she claimed on her taxes. IRS will even knock her doors if she claims $600 a week on food 😂. Na human meat she de buy for market. I live in Indiana too and we don’t pay taxes on food

[@TundeKassim]

The lady that came last said alot. Quite funny. she jumped on 5 topics 😂😂

[@sindialbert7628]

She is not lying African food is expensive.Very expensive no joke

[@olufunkeidowu9931]

Why is the Indianapolis woman not allowing other guests to talk? It's quite irritating! She is lying! $2,000 a month on food! What are they eating? How much is she and her husband earning a month? 50,000 usd? Chai some people living abroad sha😂😂😂😂 She is just shouting and has no consideration for the other guests

[@okebabe.5784]

She talks too much. Not letting others speak

[@esirinatufejp7908]

I only eat Nigeria food in London, including OLA-OLA pounded yam, Oloyin beans, amala, DRY fish, snail, Bush meat.

[@christyokoli9328]

We all live here in America. Please what are you buying that you are spending 3000 dollars.

[@danielajulor8273]

The woman has good taste, free her pls

[@newworld4366]

I am learning to cut down my expenses on food because I spent over $2000 monthly.

[@kaydee3691]

Is this for yourself alone? A family of 5? I’m just curious

[@oba_idan]

do you eat outside everyday? ANd what's your family size?

[@kaydee3691]

@@oba_idan from earlier response, this person lives in the Bay Area, which is a major factor. I just didn’t think one could spend that much on food. I’ve always lived in Texas, so different realities

[@emmanymatthew2539]

That lady is exaggerating. I live in Texas, family size is 5 and we spend less than a thousand dollars every month on food. Before Covid we barely spend $500/month on food…

[@osabello6319]

That woman spending $650 is not lying a good vegetable pot of soup cheapest is like $80

[@stellalucky275]

Common lady, Indianapolis, Indiana is one of the cheapest states to live in the states. She is not speaking good for the rest of Nigerians living in America.

[@nonnyobi50]

UK is because of the distance from Nigeria, the cargo will be cheaper

[@margaretkasali9675]

I don't agree with your statement of buying food that worth $2, 000 /a month .I'm speaking from US .

[@newworld4366]

You will agree when you are financially buoyant and can afford to buy anything. The money will mean nothing to you. It’s just that wrong poor African people are the ones talking to Daddy Freeze.

[@Dodo-dp8bc]

Abegi this girl saying she buys african food for $650/week is a big fat liar.. she's just trying to hype herself... No body buys African food for that amount, Moreover the average nigerian in US won't spend that amount.. she's not a kid and know about bulk food, she talks to enlighten people who also buy African food ... There's no way your 3 kids will eat the same quantity of food an adult eats....Na wah for you o. Young lady you just came here to hype yourself... You saying $650/week. You spending $2600/month.., so how much is your husband's salary and yourself and your husband still has to pay house rent and also buy kids clothes... abegi😂 .

[@christyokoli9328]

Please don't believe that fair woman . She is lying. African food is definitely expensive. But not like 650 dollars.

[@Danzizels-h6e]

Very true. Same in Canada...as in!!!

[@DON-MAC577]

African food is expensive but it's better than American food,, true talk sis,, please feed well.

[@delomcoker]

African food is expensive but $650 is a lie. She is just capping

[@AmakaO-x2t]

I spent $70 in two days. I never cook soup oo just tired of cooking. So i got something plate of soup and some fried turky boom $45 plus tax. Next day two items $35 plus tax

Yes it’s soo true, food is very expensive in New York, I shop whole sale too and spend around same amount she spends.

[@nonnyobi50]

This guy look like Walter Anga

[@jasonstracham9394]

African food is expensive in Europe too.

[@ebasski4958]

Please come to Nigeria where the food is cheap. The main thing is your ability to access work and earn for your self.

[@jameselekolusi7417]

How come ure spending $3k on food monthly??? I don't think that's True!!!

[@user-ug1sl3xy9r]

African food imported is expensive. Find alternative, if it must be crabs, it must not be a Nigerian crab. If you love catfish use the US blue catfish as substitute. Etc

[@newworld4366]

You are very right but sometimes it’s hard to change the taste buds you’re used to

[@abimbolaakinboboye8702]

I don’t believe her. She is not saying the truth. What is her take home? I live in Los Angeles. Na lies!

[@thezayde09]

Daddy freeze that's not true .I live in california which is the most expensive .is amusing how someone can cone up and say they spend 650 per week on food .pls which state you dey

[@Officialjohnnyrose]

I live here in Boston US …$650 a week just for food And you are making probably $600 in a week , madam u never talk true you go explain tire $3000 for just food in a month madam you are a liar in capital letter

[@oba_idan]

$3k/ month on food for a family of 5???? This is not about income or anything, they are eating better assets.

[@godsonjohnson6257]

The woman spænding 600$ on food is a lair.

[@johnpeters4100]

These people are bloodly liars

[@okerikiri8562]

😅😅😅😅 the lady on food is lying what is she eating and how many months is she feeding.

[@samueladesina5447]

Wow, what a woman she buys snails 😂

[@sindialbert7628]

200$ in us for food ! No that is just goat meat and stock fish for one week

[@newworld4366]

God bless you. Buying goat meat here in the Bay Area is very expensive. $200 goat meat is consumed within 3 days because I eat lots of meat.

[@nonnyobi50]

Blened oat is affordable. It replaces poundo

[@nonnyobi50]

Na you go dey buy snail na😅

[@AmakaO-x2t]

I never see any okro in walmart

[@kaydee3691]

3k on food?? 😂 how many mouths are you feeding? Do you know how much 1k will get you at Walmart or African store

[@newworld4366]

African store here in the Bay Area are the ones taking all my money. Each time I go to shop in African store, I spent nothing less than 500 - 600 dollars. Things are overpriced. East coast might be different and so are the pay rates.

[@doczeee9817]

You can spend about $500 to $600, but NOT weekly abeg. You can spend that once in 2-3 months. Even the rich Nigerians here in US don't spend such weekly.

[@Muppet230]

Is it must you eat african food

[@godsalvationoguibe9957]

Tbis fair lady talks alot.

[@benedictaibanga7313]

Fake. Jumoke from ASL

[@MrDansarkin]

African foods are very expensive, and sometimes don't worth the while. Nevertheless $3k per month of food is too much, except you have a small orphanage by the side

[@freexonmedia]

African food is very expensive in abroad, the lady is telling the truth. What many of you fail to realize is that African foods in abroad are imported items, thus very expensive. DF is just exhibiting local man mentality, Naira is not spent abroad.

[@stellalucky275]

We do eat more organic foods and we don’t spend more than $500 a month. We buy from Restaurants depot.

[@newworld4366]

It depends on your family size and level of consumption. I will look into the restaurant depot.

[@okerikiri8562]

Thanks I don't know if she is cooking with a full goat in every meal

[@okerikiri8562]

Even if she cooks with a full goat she can't spend $3000 a month

[@newworld4366]

@@okerikiri8562 Y’all just talking as if you were in my shoes. Do you all live and work in California Bay Area where things are very expensive. Even our one time shopping at Costco usually cost us about 300 - 400 that will last less than 2 week plus buying our African groceries. Goat meat of 200$ is consumed less than a week. If you are poor I get it. And most of you all have SNAP that pays for your groceries monthly so you won’t feel that inflation is real. There is inflation in the land and besides African foods are expensive here. Get it to your fucking scull.

[@MspacMaverick]

If you're not living here, you can not understand what she's saying. An african household of 5 will certainly spend more than $650 a month for food. Are you kidding me? I spend more beyond that on food. Do you know how much kids eat here? Do you think it's a conventional 3 square meals for the kids. The kids eat round the clock here. You can't deprive them. African food price in the US is not comparable to UKs. African Food is expensive in US, period.

[@uzoruchenna4863]

She is spending $650 a week not a month. For a family of 4

[@christyokoli9328]

God have mercy please stop lying . Which 650 dollars.

[@christyokoli9328]

African food is expensive. But why are you blowing lies.

[@aanilucky6620]

If the US minimum wage is 30K will you have such an amount to spend on food? Even though I know you are lying 😂😂😂😂. And weather food is cost or cheaper in any country it doesn't matter, what matter most is the purchasing power, how much you earn per hour or daily.
