As a Ghanaian I have watched with complete shock where tourists come to Ghana and get fufu without the locals giving them any instructions or pointers as to how the food is eaten so you will find people fumbling with the food and not knowing exactly how to enjoy it. Fufu as opposed to a majority of the food in the world is meant to be swallowed after it is dipped or whipped together with the soup around it. Fufu is NEVER meant to be chewed, and that is what I noticed most tourists do at the watchful eyes of their Ghanaian hosts who just look at them as they struggle with the food. Once again dear tourists, fufu is meant to be swallowed and not chewed. This is my first time on your channel and I think you did a great job as a solo traveller Emily. Akwaaba to Ghana 🇬🇭
Nonsense. She could easily have searched that on the internet. And trying to instruct people on how to eat is kinda rude, it's better to just leave her to eat however she wants.
It's considered rude by most people in the world to try and instruct a guest on the way they should eat the food. Saying you shouldn't chew something isn't very normal or widespread. If the person shows interest in asking if there is a traditional or cultural way to eat it, then of course. It can also be mentioned in conversation, but not instructed. "Not know how to enjoy it" ?!?! I can assure you, people know themselves which way of swallowing they will enjoy. Reminds me a little of when I visited a friend's family in Denmark who treated me to lovely smørrebrød - and despite enjoying it very much, I didn't eat it in a way that Danes consider normal. One uncle at the table began to mention it and the others told him off, telling him to let me eat however I like haha The main reason I wrote this is because I've enjoyed fufu the same way that I've eaten food my entire life, which you would have insisted was wrong. The idea of slipping it down my throat doesn't appeal to me. It's something I'd try of course for the principle, but there is not right or wrong way to consume food once it's already in your mouth. It's however you feel most confortable, and that changes from person to person.
Hello! Like you, I to am living in USA. I live in Indiana. I have been to Ghana five different times. I am actually married to a sweet Ghanaian woman who used to live in Accra. She now lives in Kasoa, Ghana about 30 minutes east of Accra. I love Ghana! Hope you and your new Ghanaian friend are still staying in touch with each other. Ghanaians are the nicest people I've ever met. My wife and our son actually ate at the Pizza Hut you showed in your video. We've eaten there a couple of times. God bless you!
Poor girl! You needed someone with you,to introduce you on proper way of consuming fufu and soup. I applaud you for your adventurous nature. Good luck with all your other travels and experiences around the world.
Thanks for sharing this amazing video.I’m also from Europe and I came to Ghana July and the people are kind and friendly. It was my first time . I was afraid as a young girl I can say Ghana is a safe country.Will be visiting again in the future. Thank you ❤
Those beggars tapping the window are Malian,Chadian or burkina fasso kids whose parents hide and send them to beg. Fufu is an island surrounded by soup the fufu should be in the soup then it’s less sticky. Banku is fermented maze meal dough.
The population of Ghana is 32.83 million (2021), not 5 million and the population of the Accra Metro area is 2.6 million. it is also normal to negotiate prices in Ghana.
It irks me when you have locals who have no idea. For her "friend" to agree that GHANA'S population is 5M shows ghel no abon! People like her kind have no business being chaperones for these tourist.
Props to all the solo travellers out there cos it's not easy taking the bold move to travel to countries you have never been to alone. Y'all bold. Ghana is safe,you will enjoy your stay mam and try more of the local delicacies 😊
But this solo traveller was made uncomfortable by her B&B landlord, virtually stalking her. Ghanaian guys especially, need to stop fawning over foreigners. It is embarrassing.
@@scipioafricanus9841 if or when it comes to bad experiences like stalking, constant harassment for money aka extortion, we heard about kidnappings, cultist, robberies, sarz which just ended etc.I can tell you Nigeria has quite the reputation my Mum,sister and I have experienced it first hand but does it make Nigeria a bad country? no I suppose. Who says there are no bad guys in Ghana it's like that every where. Even Nigerians themselves admit to the fact that Ghana is much safer compared to Nigeria and most West African countries.
@matildabrookman-amissah3036 What has Nigeria got to do with this solo traveller? I simply said Ghanaian guys need to stop an embarrassing behaviour. Please let's stick to the problem at hand.
@@scipioafricanus9841 what have Ghanaian men got to do with one bad person am also asking? Like I said,generalizing is not gonna help anyone. In the US there are more stalkers and serial killers, daily shootings,cartel related crimes than there are in Ghana or your country Nigeria but you don't hear or see anyone classifying the US as a bad country. There's nothing like a perfect country.
@matildabrookman-amissah3036 Come on!! We all know Ghanaians, in general, have a white man complex! They fawn over white people, much to the chagrin of these foreigners. By the way, what makes you think I am Nigerian? Also, why do you guys keep putting up these "What about so and so" arguments eh? Concentrate on the topic at hand.
I clicked on your video fully expecting to hate it after seeing the thumbnail because, sadly, most obroni RUclipsrs like to portray Africa in a negative light. I was, however, pleasantly surprised. You did a great job of presenting a balanced narrative. I'm super impressed by your willingness to try fufu.😅 Well done.👍
I am so surprised the restruamt that you bought the fufu from dished out the soup into that polythene bag There are a lot of small bowls with tight lids used by other eateries.
The fufu is called swallow. I don’t like it. It taste fine but my stomach is not use to it. Ghana is a fun country. It gets under your skin. You will miss it when you leave. The people are super kind.
Yes. It is normal to barter in Ghana markets. In fact it is what is expected of you as a shopper. Your companion did not understand the word "barter". The equivalent word used in Ghana is "bargain". Whatever price the seller tells you, offer half of it.
Battering involves an exchange of goods or services. Bargaining involves a negotiation, in the case of purchases, of a price or the quantity of goods or services to be purchased.
Wow,you're really amazing to leave your comfort zone to explore the world is not only admirable but also inspirational. Nuff respect. Bless up🙏🙏 It's a faux pas/a no no to eat with your left hand 👌 I guess you didn't know. Anyway Akwaaba. Enjoy
Nice video!! Yes, you are 💯correct Please definitely bargain when you shop at the market. Otherwise they will rip you off💵That Lady gave you wrong info. I’m from Ghana🇬🇭 and I know for a fact you have to bargain. Sending you🤗🤗❤❤from N.C. USA🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@user-wu7sk4rl4zI take Delta flights. If I take Delta flight from my home state (NC) RDU to JFK straight to Ghana which cost over $1500.

You should enlighten yourself, grow and change this poverty mentality that is one of the main reasons Ghana is the way it is. It is not only corrupt government but corrupt citizens as well.
Found your video randomly and I must say you doing a great job. Props to you for visiting my country but I think it woulda been more interesting if u friend got a bit more involved showing you around. As a self acclaimed RUclipsr myself 😂😂😂 (obviously joking) I haven’t even filmed one video in my own country. Well I will get there hopefully. Big thumbs to you on your journeys and hopefully see you around somewhere on earth. U got a new subscriber btw. ❤
Dip your fingers in the soup before taking to avoid the stickiness of the fufu. Usually the soup will be poured on the fufu if you were eating it from a bowl.
Nice video touring GH. You're really beautiful as well. Really nice friend you got there too but I think she did a bad job though. She missed so many interesting details and ideas. But great video none the less.
"Bartering" is a wrong expression in this context and I expect you to know this since it is your language. The correct word is "Bargaining" or "Haggling". Bargaining is to negotiate for the prices of goods and services to reach an agreement. Barter is an exchange of goods and services used in the 15th century when currency or money was not in existence
Next time use a spoon to eat the fufu and the banku, to avoid the stickiness. Just warm up the soup and also the tilapia stew. Then pour the soup over the fufu and the stew over the banku and enjoy it.
Dude are you serious 😂, To use spoon to eat Fufu 😂, How can you eat Fufu with a spoon, Fufu is sticky just like a chewing gum, How can you eat that with a spoon, I don’t think you’re a Ghanaian, Are you 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What you got was the real fufu.. that is boiled cassava and plantain pounded together and the soup was chicken light soup.. Fermented corn dough and cassava dough is used to make banku and so it always sour ...
The alternative if you don’t have the raw cassava and plantain is to get the plantain flour or fufu flour (cassava, plantain or coco yam), mix with some water and prepare on the stove.
Was the beach to restaurant to museum and Mall far to travel? That chicken/cheese roll toastie looked soo good. Hope I can take my Ghanaian son to Ghana soon & ride horses on the beach.😍🌠🇬🇭
I hope you reported the guy. That was very inappropriate. I hope he didn't spoil the trip for you. Ghanaian here living in Scotland. I miss Ghana so much, seeing these Ghana vlogs are usually the highlight of my day. Nice video!
We don't swallow it like tea 😂. You sort of chew and roll with your tongue (to mix with saliva) but not hard like how you'd chew meat. You do chew a bit more when it has meat in your mouth though 😅.
Moreover you used the tops of your fingers to hold and pull it and in that case it will look sticky no water 💦 is on your hand or soup that can prevent it from been sticking
OMG! Please, bargaining is a must in Ghana! Whatever price they tell you, cut it by half. They spike prices because you are a tourist. You are so brave to do a solo travel around Ghana.
I've been saying the Osu castle should be open for tourism EVERYDAY, not only on weekends. The govt offices there should be relocated. Tourists who can't travel to cape coast should be able to go to Osu and still experience 'slave tourism'
@@NanaAmaAmoah-ko7lr if people travel from far off places into 'poor' Ghana, and become our guests, we have to treat them well. Nothing wrong with that
It's best to eat fufu served. Eating fufu without soup to even we Ghanaians isn't an ideal option. It's super tasty when eaten "IN" the soup with your chicken or meat. Next time i recommend you eat there (the restaurant). Or better still with a Ghanaian friend(s) who'll take you through.
I'm so sorry for you about your first fufu experience, but it was very funny too 😅, the way you were tossing it between your left and right fingers. You should have eaten it at the restaurant, they would have served it well for you. You found it super sticky because it was out of the soup. You should have poured the soup over the soup in a bowl to make it easy to handle. I hope you get a second attempt 😉
I am glad you enjoyed my country, just a point of info. @15:29 yes its absolutely normal to bargain in the market. Actually it is expected. I think the lady misunderstood. And our population is 30million
Fufu is not sweet, there's no sugar in it! Ghanaians should stop using the word SWEET when they mean delicious! Talking to all these foreigners and everyone keeps saying SWEET SWEET, it confuses them, because, in real English, sweet means sugar...we should learn to say delicious, that's the real word for how food tastes.
As a Ghanaian I have watched with complete shock where tourists come to Ghana and get fufu without the locals giving them any instructions or pointers as to how the food is eaten so you will find people fumbling with the food and not knowing exactly how to enjoy it.
Fufu as opposed to a majority of the food in the world is meant to be swallowed after it is dipped or whipped together with the soup around it.
Fufu is NEVER meant to be chewed, and that is what I noticed most tourists do at the watchful eyes of their Ghanaian hosts who just look at them as they struggle with the food.
Once again dear tourists, fufu is meant to be swallowed and not chewed.
This is my first time on your channel and I think you did a great job as a solo traveller Emily.
Akwaaba to Ghana 🇬🇭
I think they are just happy people want to try it but there are other swallows that you can try like TZ
That's all
Nonsense. She could easily have searched that on the internet. And trying to instruct people on how to eat is kinda rude, it's better to just leave her to eat however she wants.
Was looking for this. It is nice to have some guidance. You get the feel for how the food should be eaten.
It's considered rude by most people in the world to try and instruct a guest on the way they should eat the food.
Saying you shouldn't chew something isn't very normal or widespread. If the person shows interest in asking if there is a traditional or cultural way to eat it, then of course. It can also be mentioned in conversation, but not instructed. "Not know how to enjoy it" ?!?! I can assure you, people know themselves which way of swallowing they will enjoy.
Reminds me a little of when I visited a friend's family in Denmark who treated me to lovely smørrebrød - and despite enjoying it very much, I didn't eat it in a way that Danes consider normal. One uncle at the table began to mention it and the others told him off, telling him to let me eat however I like haha
The main reason I wrote this is because I've enjoyed fufu the same way that I've eaten food my entire life, which you would have insisted was wrong.
The idea of slipping it down my throat doesn't appeal to me. It's something I'd try of course for the principle, but there is not right or wrong way to consume food once it's already in your mouth. It's however you feel most confortable, and that changes from person to person.

Those beggars tapping the window are Malian,Chadian or burkina fasso kids whose parents hide and send them to beg. Fufu is an island surrounded by soup the fufu should be in the soup then it’s less sticky. Banku is fermented maze meal dough.

You went to my country good I saw you try some African dishes the fufu was hard to eat thank you for some food Akwaaba welcome; 😢
If you're going to Guinea Bissau let me know I was there a year and have a friend that speaks English...just came back month ago
It’s soured because the carbohydrates is reduced completely and so if you eat it doesn’t spike your blood sugar levels
You missed so many important things in Ghana. Please go back again I can show places and things to do on your next visit

Fufu is actually made of boiled unripe plantain and boiled cassava which is pounded into that a too sticky dough.
The alternative if you don’t have the raw cassava and plantain is to get the plantain flour or fufu flour (cassava, plantain or coco yam), mix with some water and prepare on the stove.
I am glad you checked out of the hotel where you didn't feel safe..but nonetheless Ghana is a really nice place to visit
A well cooked fufu goes with variety of fish. The way I saw the soup with one chiken wing , I know immediately it was not going to taste good.
Was the beach to restaurant to museum and Mall far to travel?
That chicken/cheese roll toastie looked soo good.
Hope I can take my Ghanaian son to Ghana soon & ride horses on the beach.😍🌠🇬🇭

Don't chew the fufu and banku, just dip it into the hot soup and swallow it if you want to enjoy it.
You swallow your Banku with hot pepper and fish or maybe with okoro soup either way it can get stuck in your throat
We don't swallow it like tea 😂. You sort of chew and roll with your tongue (to mix with saliva) but not hard like how you'd chew meat. You do chew a bit more when it has meat in your mouth though 😅.

You should have eaten it at the restaurant, they would have served it well for you.
You found it super sticky because it was out of the soup. You should have poured the soup over the soup in a bowl to make it easy to handle.
I hope you get a second attempt 😉
Awesome🎉🎉
Wish I had met u upon your arrival so I could introduce you to some special places... And you are so beautiful😅
I am glad you enjoyed my country, just a point of info. @15:29 yes its absolutely normal to bargain in the market. Actually it is expected. I think the lady misunderstood. And our population is 30million
That’s quite funny, the way you’re eating the fufu, you should have let your friend teach you how to, fufu is sweet and delicious
"Sweet" is not the right word. It doesn't taste like sugar so it's not sweet. "Delicious"
Fufu is not sweet, there's no sugar in it! Ghanaians should stop using the word SWEET when they mean delicious! Talking to all these foreigners and everyone keeps saying SWEET SWEET, it confuses them, because, in real English, sweet means sugar...we should learn to say delicious, that's the real word for how food tastes.
