All around the world, people consume different types of meat one usually wouldn't find being nibbled on in South Africa. When a woman showed three animals she had prepared for consumption, the food choices had the internet feeling squirmish.

A different type of meal

Using the social media handle @c.sanda__, a woman who claimed to be married to a Nigerian man shared that frogs, foxes and crocodile meat were on the menu.

Not disclosing from where she got the food items, the TikTokker (who stated on Instagram that she attended the University of the Western Cape and is a luxury personal shopper) showed off the charred meat, which was ready to be combined into a delicious meal.

In a separate TikTok video, the woman answered an app user who wondered when it was the norm for Nigerians to cook frogs.

The woman quoted her Nigerian partner, who said:

"Toad is a very delicious delicacy from western Nigeria. You can actually cook with it in both egusi and efo riro."

Food weirds out the internet

It's not every day we see frogs, foxes, and crocodiles on the menu, which is why it may have been understandable for social media users to react with disgust and curiosity to see what the woman was about to feast on.

@sanehmayezanailbeginner asked in the comments:

"Doesn’t your belly hurt after eating?"

A grossed-out @lonwabo20143 said:

"The frogs on their own gave me anxiety. Now you went and added more trauma."

@deenia_18 laughed and shared:

"Ai, no man! If this is marriage, I would leave. Your kitchen during meal prep looks like a spiritualist's alter."
