Falz Reveals His Favorite Foods, Sparks Debate Over Semo

On Saturday, Nigerian rapper and social commentator Folarin Falana, better known as Falz, took to social media to share some lighthearted revelations about his favorite foods — but his opinions quickly sparked a heated debate among his fans!

Falz revealed that plantain holds a special place in his heart, even jokingly stating that it’s a deal breaker in a relationship if his partner doesn’t like it. “Not liking plantain is serious grounds for break up,” he wrote on his X handle. 🍌

But the plantain love didn’t stop there. Falz also declared that one meal he could eat every day for the rest of his life is boiled yam and fried eggs. “One meal I can eat every day for the rest of my life – boiled yam and fried eggs,” he posted, sharing his love for this classic Nigerian dish. 🥔🍳

However, the rapper’s opinion on semovita (semo) stirred up more than just hunger pangs. Falz openly stated that he doesn’t consider semo worthy of being classified as food, claiming, “I wouldn’t advise eating semo in the morning… or any time of the day in fact. It shouldn’t be food.” 😱

Our Take:
Falz's bold food opinions have fans buzzing! While his love for plantain and yam-egg combo might win over many, his stance on semo has definitely caused some stir. Semo, a staple in Nigerian households, is widely adored, so it’s no surprise that his opinion has sparked a mix of agreement and outrage. 🤯

Food is a deeply personal and cultural experience, and while Falz's preferences might seem quirky to some, it’s clear that his posts have got people talking — which is exactly what a social media star like him does best. 🍽️🔥

Do you agree with Falz on the semo issue, or do you think he's completely off base? What’s your ultimate comfort food? Let’s talk in the comments! 👇
