Hilarious: Number of Chapati one should eat in one sitting

By Jerome ogolla via FB

I never got any answer

Those well versed with the law, kindly help elucidate to us, the number of chapati allowed per person in one sitting

I am asking because, I am having lunch somewhere and everyone is looking at me, upon asking for the sixth chapati

I am a law abiding citizen and the look I get suggests I have veered off what’s normal or even what’s legal

It doesn’t help matters that the the chapatis are paper-thin and as transparent as the underwear of ladies who trade nocturnally, along Koinange Street of Nairobi, Paradise Bar in Eldoret and Avenue Kasavubu in Kinshasa

An avarage hoof eater can eat upto 30 such chapatis, to “feel something” in the stomach. Anything less than that is a mere appetizer

This is the reason I like the eating places of Soy, because you ask for chai mandazi and they bring you a mug of boiling tea and a plate full of mandazi

This is how we get an opportunity to choose what to eat and what to leave based on their individual weight, the gauge being our own palms

We lift them and careful weigh them one by one in a bid to establish “gani iko na nyama”

The rejected ones are returned to that locker with a transparent face and will be served to some other people

The hygiene could be compromised here because the hand used in the operation is the same that may have been used to scratch an itchy arm-pit or even leg-pit, not long ago, but what matters here is value for money

Anyway, great evening my fellow hoof eaters!!
