conclusion
dear friends, it's essential that we run away from sachet spices. Many are dead today as a result of such spices. How? just take a look at their ingredients, you will notice that sugar is part of it. If someone is diagnosed of diabetes or sugar in urine or blood, and such requires that the person should stay away from sugar, but unknowingly, he or she consumes sugar causing the sugar level to rise, at times, beyond repair.
well if only life was possible without eating lol I would spent my time doing other things
Honestly, we share same view. But, since it's a must to eat, let's keep on cooking naa
lol glad I'm not the only one and to keep things interesting we will add your spice
Hahaha 🤣, those spices are natural. Since eating is part of our nature, we must answer the call of nature because, no matter how big a tree is, it must surely dance to the tune of the wind. Let's just spice it.
Your meal look yummy and I believe it tasted good too. You had a wonderful day cooking and it is true that life will be boring and miserable without food so bring some let me use and enjoy myself. 😉
Thanks for sharing your delicious stew recipe with us. The natural spices are what we all need.
Ma @ngoenyi, natural spices or ingredients are the best. But, most people prefer chemically processed spices to natural ones. Maybe, unaware of it consequences.
I also think that life without food will be pretty boring 😊
I for one won’t like it as I LOVE food too much.
