Jollof rice with chicken is overrated. The real MVP is fried plantain

See ehn, I know say this one go cause fight for comment section, but somebody must say the truth. Jollof rice with chicken? Overrated. Every wedding, every party, na the same thing. Chicken dry like sahara desert, jollof sweet but after two plates you need ambulance.
Fried plantain though? That thing is the unsung hero of every Nigerian meal. You can eat it with beans, with rice, with stew, even alone. It never disappoints. Sweet, soft inside, crispy outside. It's giving happiness. And the way it disappears first at every gathering? No evidence of conspiracy, just facts.
I blame our parents for conditioning us to think meat is the main thing. In this economy? Plantain is cheaper, healthier, and honestly more satisfying. Make we stop lying to ourselves.
Which one you go choose if you must drop one forever: jollof rice or fried plantain?
