Amala is overrated—
Lilian Afegbai says as she raises concern over the color

Nollywood actress and producer Lilian Afegbai has stirred reactions online after she revealed why she believes popular Nigerian delicacy Amala is overrated. Speaking on the Xtra Spicy Podcast, Lilian admitted she has never tasted Amala and doesn’t intend to, mainly because of its colour and appearance.

When asked which Nigerian food she considers overrated, she immediately mentioned Amala and openly stated she doesn’t eat it. According to her, the meal’s dark look already discourages her from trying it.
“I haven’t tried Amala and it’s black… why is it black?” she said, explaining that she chooses food based on look and sight, and Amala does not appeal to her visually.

When the host compared Amala’s colour to dark chocolate, asking if she eats that, Lilian explained that although “I don’t eat chocolate, I’m not a fan of extremely dark ones either”, stressing that her preference is largely influenced by how a meal looks.

Her remarks have since sparked mixed reactions, with some agreeing that appearance influences appetite, while others defended Amala as one of Nigeria’s most loved traditional meals despite its colour.
