Not you too. My grandmother eats that every ramadan for suxuur.

^ The Jiimbaar





^ The taste of Somali food is still unique...simply the best!!!

Luubaan...probably only Somalis still use it.



Cambuulo iyo bun and daango...don't forget the fragrant shaah iyo qaxwo





I still think the way we make subag is pretty unique...so are our gabayo and crappy music.

...and I haven't yet tasted fruits as good as the ones from Somalia and the list goes on!!

Funny coronations

What's this "Cambuulo" everybody seems to be going on about.Is it a Koonfurian t'ing

you fools...we have lots of non-Somalis that read these forums...and instead of searching high and low for things that r unique to us in our culture...you say stupid things! uffff


We have tons of things that make us unique wallahi....we have the dirac, UUNSI (although many other countries use it, it came from us!!!), sadex qayd, guntiino, Darin Somali aka Sali Somali but its very wide and long----many people can sit on it, Gambar, Xeero, our unique rural hut aka aqal Somali, Mallawax, our unique way of making Sambus, Odkac, Somali cat, our DANCES, our MUSIC, Halwa, and the way we talk with our hands

There is nothing Somali specific about the Macawiis

People all over the Indian ocean shores wear it

My non Somali friend was walking with me in the Somali-Mall once and I kept calling every lady Eedo, and she knew what Eedo meant so she asked me if my family owned this mall.

A Trillion dollars in debt walking, fast food eating, ignorant flooding, pot melting of the worse types of people is not beautiful, at least not for you grand kids it won't be.
Why don't you come back to Canada, the great white north instead?

Many East Africans have that not just Somalis.

From the Habesha to the Maasai.

"Hagbad" is not unique to Somalis. It is the poor man's micro-finance and came to Somali through poor Italian laborers. Most of Somalis know it as ayuuto after the Italian aiuta (help).
