"This is actually very wrong but I am to advise anyone of them incase of a future event. Chew the food. Less hazardous."

"The second lady actually won. She should have been picked as soon as she finished eating the pounded yam and not made to lick the soup from the plate and finish her calabash of palm wine. Except if all their jars were also expected to be emptied. Soup should be optional."
