In a recent interview with Hip TV, Thabang Mazibuko, a former housemate of South African Big Brother Titans, shared his surprise at discovering that Nigerians eat “weird” foods. The 21-year-old said that spending 65 days with Nigerians in the Big Brother Titans’ house helped him to better understand Nigerian culture and the similarities and differences between South Africa and Nigeria.
Thabang revealed that he was amazed to learn about the wide-ranging cultures and traditions in Nigeria, which have a rich history that he had not previously known. He also talked about his discovery of different Nigerian foods, including the way they eat popcorn with sugar and peanuts, which he found to be odd but interesting.
According to Thabang, despite the cultural differences, there are many similarities between South Africans and Nigerians, particularly their food choices. He noted that while custard is a dessert in South Africa, Nigerians eat it as breakfast, which he found pretty shocking.
In conclusion, Thabang’s experience on Big Brother Titans has helped him learn more about the rich cultural heritage of Nigeria, including the variety of foods eaten by Nigerians. Thabang’s revelations should serve as a reminder that cultural diversity and acceptance are critical in fostering greater understanding between different nations.
