In northern Europe, wheat, rye and fats of animal origin predominate, while in southern Europe olive oil is ubiquitous and rice is more prevalent. In Italy, the cuisine of the north, featuring butter and rice, stands in contrast to that of the south, with its wheat pasta and olive oil.

In some parts of Greece, gyros is the staple, while in others this role is filled by bread. Throughout the Middle East and Mediterranean, common ingredients include lamb, olive oil, lemons, peppers and rice.

The vegetarianism practiced in much of India has made pulses (crops harvested solely for the dry seed) such as chickpeas and lentils as important as wheat or rice.

From India to Indonesia, the extensive use of spices is characteristic; coconuts and seafood are also used throughout the region both as foodstuffs and as seasonings.

“I have successfully exported prayers to China. Good news is coming our way.

Trade by barter. Nigeria, the change is coming.” The video comes amid VDM’s recent clash with Apostle Arome, whom he criticised over remarks about Nigeria and the country’s development. Arome had spoken about Nigeria’s role as a nation of revival and questioned the emphasis some Nigerians place on comparing the country with nations developing engines and other technological innovations.

VDM took issue with the remarks, arguing that Nigeria should focus more on innovation, creativity and technological development rather than relying primarily on religious expectations. His latest video from China appeared to combine the themes of prayer and international engagement, with VDM joking about “exporting” prayers and describing the development as “trade by barter.”

The activist did not provide further details about what he meant by “good news” or the specific changes he expected to see in Nigeria.

How many times do you mash before you turn?
