Some pairings just make all the sense… and others are a little unhinged 👀🍽️
Which one are you defending, and which one has to go?

Nobody guessed correctly. Who can blame you? The correct answer is ketchup! Don’t judge. 🤣 We love our ketchup on nearly EVERYTHING!!!! We did a raffle anyways for anyone that participated.

And the winners are!!! 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁

Ashley Johnson!
Tujuba!
Lola!
Mohamed!
Jeric!

Not sure if these names were spelled correctly as the handwriting in some situations was difficult to read but regardless we called you if you’re the winner.

Congratulations and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!! Please arrange pickup between today and tomorrow as previously mentioned.

From little John and the team here at John and Irish’s No Frills, thanks to everyone who participated and have an amazing Thanksgiving!

You’re walking into a job interview. no name iced coffee in hand.
What’s the verdict? 👇

10/01/2026

🚨ATTENTION! EVERYONE! PLEASE REMAIN CALM!!! Noble Plantain chips are back‼️

THEY DISAPPEARED……. Supplier issues.
YOU ASKED……. EVERY…SINGLE…DAY……… Multiple times. Sometimes what must’ve been 20 plus times daily!!! WE WAITED…….. and pleaded with our vendor. YOU SUFFERED…... WE SUFFERED.😭😂We inquired weekly……sometimes even more frequently. We asked questions…….We checked the shelves approximately 847 times a week……🤪

After being gone for so long, we had officially accepted that plantain chips may never be coming back. 😭

BUT TODAY…

THEY HAVE RETURNED!!!!!!!🥹🔥🙌

Yes. NOBLE PLANTAIN CHIPS ARE BACK!🇳🇬🇬🇭

This is not a drill.
This is not a rumour.
This is not one of those “coming soon” situations.

THE CHIPS ARE ACTUALLY HERE. 😂😂😂

And please, let’s be responsible adults about this.

Don’t come in saying, “I’ll just take one bag.”

We know you better than that. 😭

You’re about to buy enough bags to survive a zombie apocalypse, a snowstorm, and three unexpected family visits. 😂

🏃‍♀️💨 RUN.

Because after waiting this long, we are NOT responsible for what happens when you see that shelf. 💣🤯😂🔥

📍 PLANTAIN CHIPS — BACK NOW at John and Irish’s No Frills!

You can now find them located down our freezer aisle close to our other Nigerian favourites like frozen mature chicken and yam fries.

THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN. THE CRUNCH HAS RETURNED. HURRY ON OVER. 🥳😂

Tag someone who needs to see this IMMEDIATELY. 👇🇳🇬🇬🇭
