A young Nigerian man has stirred massive reactions online after sharing a rib-cracking video of his girlfriend’s attempt at cooking what should have been a simple pot of spaghetti. The video, which has since gone viral across different social media platforms, captured the man bursting into uncontrollable laughter while showcasing the unusual dish. Instead of the expected stringy and well-prepared pasta, the spaghetti turned out looking more like thick porridge, leaving many netizens in stitches.
In the clip, the man repeatedly expressed his shock and disbelief at how his beautiful girlfriend could transform ordinary spaghetti into such a comical-looking meal. His narration, mixed with loud laughter, showed he couldn’t believe what he was seeing as he jokingly described the food as a “monster” of a meal. Despite the teasing, his playful tone indicated that the incident was more funny than offensive, making the moment even more entertaining for viewers.
Girlfriend embarrassed but playful
The young lady, visibly embarrassed by the unexpected outcome, tried to cover the pot of spaghetti and push the camera away from capturing the evidence. She laughed nervously while begging her boyfriend to stop filming, but he refused, insisting that the world needed to see what she had created. Even though she was shy about her cooking flop, she joined in the laughter, showing that the atmosphere remained lighthearted between the couple.
Her boyfriend further teased her about her cooking skills, joking that even cooking “just two sticks of spaghetti” was not as easy as it looked. He later posted the video with a hilarious caption: “To cook two spaghetti no easy o,” which made the situation even more relatable for many who have experienced similar cooking mishaps.
Social media reacts
The viral post attracted thousands of views and waves of comments from amused social media users. While many people found the situation hilarious, others sympathized with the girlfriend, pointing out that cooking mishaps are a natural part of learning and should not be taken too seriously. Several users also commended her for at least making the effort to cook, something they claimed many others in her shoes might not even attempt.
TheNaijaGambit reacted: “She’s beautiful and I like how you’re taking it, teach her or send her to a cooking school. At least she wants to cook. Others will say ‘I’m not your slave.’ 😂”
Shibionike penned: “You’d never have access to my kitchen ever again if you waste my food. I’m never giving you food again even if you’re dying …. You still dey laugh.”
PranceInvisible said: “What’s funny here? Na person wey you go cook better one for am before she go house. See as person dey waste food 😞.”
TruthBeToldOO1 noted: “This video is a clear example of why some people should stick to ordering takeout instead of attempting to cook. The spaghetti looks more like a failed experiment than a meal. Cooking is an art, not everyone can master it, and pretending otherwise is just misleading. Truth be told, this is a disservice to the culinary world.”
Despite the divided opinions, one thing was clear — the video brought laughter to thousands, reminding people that not every failed meal has to end in frustration. Sometimes, even a cooking disaster can create unforgettable memories and shared joy between loved ones.[/p]
