# How Ananse Tricked Leopard Out of BreakfastAfter enjoying a generous breakfast at Leopard's home, Ananse promised to return the favor the next day, instructing Leopard to come when he heard dishes clattering. Leopard waited patiently but heard no such sound. When he finally visited anyway, Ananse claimed breakfast was already over, despite never making the promised signal. When Leopard protested, the cunning spider offered him another chance the following day with new instructions: when Ananse said "Eat eat eat!" Leopard must respond with "I don't want to eat!" The next day, the trusting Leopard followed these instructions exactly. When Ananse invited him to eat, Leopard obediently declared he didn't want to eat, allowing Ananse to laugh and send him away hungry. Through these two clever deceptions—creating impossible conditions for breakfast and then tricking Leopard into refusing food—Ananse managed to avoid repaying Leopard's hospitality altogether.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​https://mythopia.io/story/69/african-folktale-ananse-s-breakfast-trick-west-african-trickster-stories
