Food is great for nutrition and it’s also fun to eat. However, some foods are not for enjoyment but to test your management and budgeting skills. Any wrong step and you’re left with an incomplete meal and faced with the fact that your management skills suck. Here are some of them.
1. Yam and egg
This is the ultimate test of your management skills. You have to deftly manage your yam and ensure that the proportions remain an equal ratio at all times, or else you will eat yam alone and probably choke to death.

2. Bread and beans
One of the best meals out there, no cap. But you have to be careful not to eat more bread than beans or vice versa, or else, you will eat the bread alone.

3. Jollof rice and plantain
If you finish the plantain before the rice, how can you be trusted to manage your finances properly?

4. Plantain and egg
You must maintain the balance between the egg and the plantain, or else, how can you be trusted to balance the country’s fiscal budget?

5. Rice and stew
If you like, finish the stew. You’ll eat the rice like that.

6. Suya and garri
With the rate of inflation, 500 naira suya isn’t what it used to be, so you have to be careful and manage your resources wisely.

7. Noodles and egg
Whether fried or boiled, balancing eggs with noodles is a skill only a few people can manage.

8. Akara and pap
Because who is eating either one alone?
