I've never had that Nigerian thing, but certainly would rather have a good burger any day of the week.

I wasn't naming random foods from random countries; I was going by iheartted's quote:

So, I chose Nigerian and Jamaican west African and West Indian examples. And I guess if most people would rather go to Chipotle over those other options, oh well.
I wasn't claiming to be worldly or superior, hellz no. That's one of the last things I would do, because it isn't true. There are still plenty of things for me to learn about the world, and I'm open to it. I am far from being worldly and superior. And I don't look down on basic American food, but I do know what I like and don't like, and Chipotle and Shake Shack, I don't like. Food is subjective.

My wife didn’t like Shake Shack for a long time, it took her a while and much longer than me. I kept sharing the extra burger with her and now it’s the only place she will purchase a fast food burger from.
I’m with you on the tempura green beans that The Habit Burger serves, I do wish Shake Shack would make them.

I really don't eat burgers much anymore; I can't even think of the last time I had a burger, so I'll probably not even bother with Shake Shack anymore. And like I said, when I go to The Habit, I get a salad or the grilled ahi tuna with the tempura green beans---aren't they the bomb?
