Meat has been part of human history for millions of years. Our ancestors discovered that animal protein gave them strength, sharper brains, and the energy to survive. From the very first cut of roasted meat to the sizzling suya on Lagos streets today, meat has always been more than food. It is culture, survival, and celebration.
But here’s the truth: while meat shaped our history, how we consume it today matters more than ever. That’s exactly where Meat Madam comes in.
Why humans began eating meat
Scientists have traced the first evidence of meat consumption back to about 3.4 million years ago. Our ancestors realised meat and marrow carried more nutrients than roots and fruits alone. Later, when humans mastered fire, cooked meat became even more powerful; easier to chew, digest, and packed with energy. This shift helped build bigger brains and stronger bodies.
Fast forward to today: the need for meat hasn’t changed, only the way we source and enjoy it has. And in a fast-paced city like Lagos, nobody has time for dirty markets, questionable hygiene, or stress. That’s why Meat Madam makes modern meat as safe, convenient, and premium as it should be.
The advantages of meat (when done right)
The following are the benefits that meat has brought to humanity.
Nutritional powerhouse: Meat supplies vitamin B12, iron, and zinc — nutrients that are difficult to get enough of from plant foods alone. These are vital for energy, immunity, and brain function.
Cultural identity: From ewedu made with ogufe (goat meat) to oha soup made with beef, meat is the heart of Nigerian culinary.
Livelihoods: Meat is the backbone of economies worldwide and locally, brands like Meat Madam give farmers, processors, and delivery teams steady work.

The possible dangers of meat (and how Meat Madam protects you)
Meat isn’t without risks — but with the right systems, the dangers shrink.
Foodborne illness & contamination: Unhygienic slaughter slabs or open-market exposure can spread bacteria. At Meat Madam, our processing is done under strict hygienic conditions so you never worry about contamination.
