A married Nigerian woman has amused social media users after revealing that her husband has never used his bare hands to eat swallow despite being with her for 13 years.

The woman, identified as Cook with Temmy, shared the revelation while describing the striking difference between her eating habits and those of her husband.

According to Temmy, she has spent 13 years with her husband, including five years as his wife, but his unusual eating habit has remained unchanged.

“He has NEVER used his bare hands to eat swallow”

Temmy wrote:

“Ladies and gentlemen, I am in my 13th year of being with this man and 5th year of being married to him as his wife, and till today, he has NEVER used his bare hands to eat swallow,”

She added that her husband was not simply choosing to avoid eating swallow with his hands but apparently did not know how to do it.

“He doesn’t even know how to use his hands to eat swallow,” she said.

“He is married to the agbero like me”

Temmy jokingly highlighted the contrast between their eating habits, describing herself as someone who enjoys eating swallow with her bare hands.

“Meanwhile, he is married to the agbero like me that uses her bare hands to eat,” she wrote.

“You see this life…”

“I thought he was just forming”

The food content creator said she initially assumed her husband was deliberately avoiding eating swallow with his hands because he wanted to appear sophisticated around her.

“When I first met him, I thought he was just forming and trying to act posh with me, and I was actually waiting for the day he would eventually use his hands,” she wrote.

However, according to Temmy, that day never came, even after more than a decade together.

Her revelation has sparked amusement online, with many Nigerians sharing their own experiences and debating the different eating habits people bring into marriage.
