Ingredients and Food security
Some countries share certain dishes but are made with different ingredients and different ways. These dishes are made up of vegetables, fruits, grains, carbohydrate and dairy products. Food is usually grown on farms and distributed to markets when ready, for this reason, most produce in the market are fresh and GMO-free. The growth of crops and food products have a lot to do with the food, culture and survival in an African city or country.

Foods like manioc, Eba and fufu pronounced as /Foo foo/ are made up of Cassava, plantain flour, maize flour and semolina. The cultivation of these usually differ depending on the farmers but are used to make thick solid fufu eaten with native soups.

Soups are made from rich vegetables like tomatoes, spinach, waterleaf, onions, etc. Diary-like meat, chicken, fish, and shrimp are used to make these soups as well. In fact, most soups can’t be made without these key ingredients. Due the different methods of cooking native food is usually dangerous to eat if not made cleans as it involves the use of hands in preparation and when eating. The best way of eating these African dishes is to use your hand which is risky. When food is not cooked properly or in a clean area in can become contaminated and lead to several health issues.Food security is a huge issue in Africa due to this.
