Have You Eaten? 

This is a question typically asked by Nigerians to show care or pretend to worry about your 'stomach'. The question 'have you eaten?' is sometimes met with silence, heavy sigh, or a lie. And If the reply is 'I haven't eaten', there is a chance you will hear 'Go and cook na'.

The question could also suggest strong term of endearment.

The phrase is exactly what you get If someone likes you

It's also an annoying question we love to hear, even though we act like we don't

Have you eaten rice yet? 

The phrase ‘have you eaten rice yet?’ is a social pleasantry used between friends and acquaintances along the same lines as saying ‘how are you?’ or ‘how’s it going?’ A person may respond, ‘eaten already’ or ‘not yet’. The phrase is another way of asking ‘have you eaten yet?’, but if the reply is ‘not yet’ there is every chance the two friends will end up eating together even if it’s just a quick snack.
A dialogue between two friends :

Boy: Have you eaten rice yet? (Typical greeting)
Girl: Yes, I’ve eaten. (Expected reply)
Boy: Where are you going? (The standard opening)
Girl: Over there! (Reply)
(Also a greeting couched like a question that requires no answer.)
