Put the Pepper Dem gang in a food crisis and what you get are super spicy reactions.

A little talk between Mercy, Enkay and Venita about food this morning gingered the latter to air her opinion. Since losing their Wager, the Pepper Dem gang have shown us how much they like food. If they don’t call a family meeting to rescue the situation, we will soon see some of them locking horns.

No Food Wastage

Since coming into the House, Venita seems determined to say to anyone who cares to listen that she can’t be taken for a ride. When Mercy told her and Enkay that Seyi kept soaked spaghetti in the kitchen, she flared up and stood up immediately. It seems she has had enough of food wastage, not even when there isn’t much to go round.

With the way she dashed into the room, we thought she was going to pounce on Seyi for that. Instead, she was seen ranting about Tacha, Seyi and Mercy being the ones who frequent the kitchen the most. Seated there hearing her, Seyi did not budge on his seat. But that was him. If he could stomach being called out like that, not Tacha. She must have heard Venita as she passed by, so she responded as e dey hot, ‘If you’re going to be talking about people like that, please count me out’, she said, "Stop mentioning my name." She concluded. As if that statement meant silence, Venita abruptly stopped talking and went back to the garden. Perhaps, the statement that when two irons meet, one would bend for the other seemed at play here.

 

 

Gossip Time

After that incident, Venita returned to her gist partners where they complained about certain Housemates who felt that they could get away with anything in the House. This statement impressed Frodd who quickly chirped in, ‘Some people ate three different meals yesterday.’ Who wouldn’t know that they were referring to Tacha, Seyi and Cindy, because these three have literally made a home of the kitchen? But the gist would not end there. Referring to Tacha, she wondered why a certain Housemate believes that shouting every time makes you a star. ‘An empty vessel makes the loudest noise,’ she said. Do we see a fight brimming between her and Tacha soon?

 

Still On The Food Matter

Due to the shortage of food, Mercy felt that the House should have a meeting about the cooking routine. She said cooking alone should no longer be allowed if they really wanted to manage with the little they have. In her response to Diane who wanted to cook, she said that must wait till they call for another meeting. But Esther would have none of that. In her gist with Diane in the dressing room, she said that nobody could stop her from cooking. Like the Iron Lady that she was, she led Diane to the kitchen where they started prepping a meal. Is this Esther playing big sister to Diane here or was she trying to challenge Mercy? What’s happening to the power puff girls camp?

The Pepper Dem gang likes food, no doubt about it. And we can sense some quarrels between those who will prefer cooking for themselves and those who like a family meal. Well, let's see how it goes.
