Always a pleasure filming these videos, what do you think the next round of Ghanaian mums try will be???
kenkey
Fufu and soup? 😅
Omotuo with peanut soup
Or who makes the best aboloo
I hope you can also do Ghanaian men next!
Banku with okro
Someone needs to serve Akua her own food blindfolded
Imagine her roasting her own food. 🤣
She had something negative to say for each dish IMO,; don't think he she judges the dishes fairly.
Akua is my fav character, I think she’s cute…and for that reason I like her food the most too
Her attitude is horrible
Yeah she is nasty 🤢
I love how the biggest Ego usually isn't the winner. And the nicest person is usually the winner.
biggest person*
unfortunately she wins in another video ...
Cause when it comes to cooking it’s about love and nurturing your loved ones through the pot. So of course the most caring people are the best cooks
@@ficki1234567 do you mean akua or Rosalind?
@@dreamweaver7797 look at your big forehead
“This is pure hatred”
Says the one person that hated on everyone’s dish when hers sucked lol. Notice how her dish had everything she criticized the other dishes for 😂. A well deserved L
Congratulations Ruth 💃🏾❤️
😂😂
If u have not tasted please dont talk abeg
PURE HATER! No lies told
I know right, Ekua gives the woke vibe😹💔
@Ground Up Viral Do you understand English? Woke means GOOD. Only people care deeply for social and political justice are woke. In this flyweather world, most people do not have the courage to be integral and speak out for the good of others. Woke people have that courage. Jesus, Abraham Lincoln, and Gandhi qualify as woke in terms of today's verbiage.
Says out her own mouth “should be able to eat it by itself”… The next meal/scene gave her EXACTLY what she asked for… No stew, still wasn’t happy. 😂😂😂
😂scrimmm I was surprised too. Like sis, make up your mind.
@@eishethPov Gotta watch what u ask for, u just may get it. 😂😂😂
😂😂
She talks too damn much for me.
Auntie bias
I’m happy Ruth won! Her food looked good and she wasn’t overly critical!!
I hate when comments like these are top comment and ruin the video before I even try to click comments or anything
@@user-hx4le1vn2c ikr!
I don’t like it either! Spoiler!
@@ayoadamson6594 smh fr
lol all of them looked good to me haha got me craving Waakye but i must admit i am also very observant of the colour too though i always call it purple like instead of red
Dont spoil mf
If you guys bring Akua back please blind fold them, I wanna see her try her own food.
That would be perfect!!!!!!
Oh better yet they shouldn’t because she just depresses the video😅 I swear when I see her face I brace myself for the toxicity and negativity she proudly spews
🤣🤣🤣 I loved how this turned out hahaha thanks for all your lovely comments guys. Go easy on sis Akua ooo please xx (This is Ruth btw)
Nice to see you Ruth 😉
Yes Ruth! 😂 When I saw you I was worried you’d carry last 😅
Your waakye is actually the OG because in the north they don’t add sorghum leaves to colour it red!
Great job and you looked beautiful
Woop 🎉wooop 🎉 go Ruth 🥰😍🥰😍
Suggestions to make it FAIR:
1. Have an outsider rate all the dishes
2. Blindfold and make them rate their plate as well
3. If they refuse to try it, they get no vote and that person's dish is rated with just the remaining contestants
Nobody:
Akua: Dryyy
Her attitude really stank, even though her food's presentation was nice. I personally like my waakye soft and a little sticky. Glad Ruth won, she was really lovely.
SN they really did auntie Ama dirtyy 😅
Lol, i wanted Ama to have a higher score. She was sweet as well but misinterpreted the assignment
@@RP.123 Ama and Ruth are nice but Rosalind and akua are annoying
I wana taste Ruth's Waakye. The way everyone said mmmmm...I know it must be tasty. Well done ladies, especially Ruth who was honest yet respectful. We love to see it!!!
Thanks Sis😘😘😘
For those wondering, waakye is like rice and peas on steroids (emphasis on "like" -- not quite the same). In true Ghanaian 🇬🇭 fashion, we load it with everything (fried plantains, boiled egg, 'shito' [blackened pepper sauce], caramelized onion/tomato stew, beef chunks, fried fish, 'gari' [cassava flakes], 'taalia' [stewed spaghetti], a bit of salad and 'wele' [what Nigerians call 'ponmo'.]
It's truly a delightful harmony of sweet, savory, spicy and full-bodied flavour that gives jollof rice a run for its money. 😋 If you could only eat one Ghanaian meal for the rest of your life, it should be waakye. Waakye is 💯% THAT girl!!!
Sounds delicious I wish there were more food options like this in Texas somewhere 😭
@@deannadanielle 🤗 i imagine you could easily find some Ghanaian cuisine in Houston and Dallas, which have large Ghanaian communities.
Sounds cool, I wanna try it so I can taste the difference between the two. I'm use to rice n peas in Jamaica. I can't say which one would be better but the coconut in rice n peas makes it amazing.
@@slimthickaz. Some people and restaurants cook the rice with coconut milk
Thanks for explaining what all goes into the meal. It sounds really good so I need to find a Ghanaian restaurant so I can try it.
Who knew waakye is such a serious business? Ruth was so lovely and nice about everyone’s food but you see the Akua lady, the worse one out of all of them 😂😂
Why? Because she was being HONEST? Isn't the whole show based on critique? Why are some people so uncomfortable with the truth? 🙄
@@jessicafernandez1094 I have no issue with her being honest, but there’s a way you can be honest in love. A lot a people think being honest or speak their mind implies that they have a be rude about what they’re saying and that’s not always true. You can be honest wholeheartedly, but make sure you do it in love. That’s all.
@@jessicafernandez1094 because it’s not the truth usually they just sabotage scores so theirs come out on top that’s why some episodes have another voter who doesn’t cook to judge afterwards.
@@jessicafernandez1094 no , people are not upset about the critique, it’s the delivery. Most folks that come on the show and act nasty, end up scoring the worst! That’s the irony of it all 😂😂 you would think after countless episodes of this being the outcome, people would learn to deliver their HONESTY with much more RESPECT
@@deannadanielle I
You know you’re petty when you hit the best dish with a “very edible”
Couldn’t even say it tasted good 😅
Her attitude was just like her critique of everyone else..DRY
Exactly 🙄🙄🙄
😂
I am so glad Akua lost with her nasty attitude. Hopefully, this "L" will humble her spirit. There is always one that nitpicks & and overdo the critiques.
I think all the videos are filmed on the same day, so every other video she's basically gonna be the same.
I don't know you personally but due to your comment you've shown the whole world that you're a definition of hater and is a fact. I can tell you're the worst cook ever live with a stincky attitude. Go bite yourself horrible hater
I was thinking the same from the very beginning Akua thought her cooking was the best before even trying anyone else’s
@Obeng Mireku you're absolutely right, you do not know me. Have a blessed day 😘.
I can't help but feel like they purposefully add a more critical person in the mix to keep the video more interesting and to milk more comments out of people, which seems to be working. Similar to how a lot of "reality" tv shows will stage a conflict in order to keep viewers from getting bored. It's for entertainment purposes. Somebody else said the same thing on a different video and I think it's true.
I love Ama so much! I’m sad she did badly in this video but she did great in the other video. Regardless, you can tell she wants to be polite to everyone. Her spirit looks so bright and I love her!
But all these women are beautiful!
You’re right she seems very kind and very real
I like her too. She sounds so sweet and polite
Never forget the EGG! This is absolutely fun to watch as a Ghanaian it’s great to see our dishes featured. Waakye is well loved especially with all the compliments like spaghetti, salad, gari, eggs, fish, wele etc and to top it all with our black spicy sauce SHITO and some stew. Absolutely delicious. Thank you ladies! Thank you Buzzfeed this was an amazing one 💕
Shito is honestly so good 😩 my mom’s side of the family is Ghanaian so every time my aunt brings us food, she brings it along for me cuz she knows I love it.
@@mxry 🤩 amazing
Haha for me its never forget the Shito hahaha But yeah i love Egg with Waakye . Waakye in general is amazing. Dont know what it is but i would never get bored of eating it! I absolutely love shito!!!! I would always get Jars from my Godmother and eat it with literally ANYTHING! Might sound disgusting but I would even put it on sandwiches hahah Its the texture and flavour for me
@@adorali727 OMG yasss shito and sandwich 🥪 is literally the bomb especially when the shito has got little chucks of meat/fish in it.🥹yh now I’m going to make myself a shito sandwich 😂😂you’re invited to join. God bless our Ancestors for creating these delicious recipes 😋🥰
Thank you for going in depth bc as an African-American, even after watching I was still kinda lost on what these dishes entailed
Well done to everybody for taking part. I’m so glad that Ruth won, her food was clearly delicious and she seemed so humble, respectful and kind. What a beautiful and radiant young woman. I look forward to the next round. #TeamRuth
Thanks Sis😘😘
I'm Nigerian & Black-American, but I must say this dish always brings me to my knees. Much love to all my Ghanaian Brothers & Sisters out there!
Were you born in Nigeria?
@@mr.makedonija2627 I was not. My Mother is Nigerian & my Father is Black-American. I was born & raised in the US.
@Angel Melissa Agbettor *Brother lol
@@aarondavis2258 so u are American then
.Not Nigerian-American.
@@mr.makedonija2627 Aww, another one that doesn't know the difference between, nationality, race & ethnicity. American is NOT a race or ethnicity my good sir. It is a nationality. It is the equivalent of my cousin who is also Nigerian, but born on German soil making him Nigerian & German. It's OK. It can be a complicated concept to grasp.
The Ghanaian accent is like a warm hug 💛
Ah yes, poverty is so comforting.
@Toffee Nut Oh so you've just been recycling the same poverty insult over the whole comment section? Even if we're poor, come and visit us regardless. We can teach you some more creative insults😊. Hw3 ne kwaseas3m bi
@@melissamorgan3482 we don’t feed the trolls round here girl, just ignore them let them die slow 😘
@@melissamorgan3482 good roast. You’re not all that poor though you’re growing quite fast! 😊
@@melissamorgan3482 lol
Auntie said “lemme just try 1 beans” 😂
I love how there’s a constant theme that it is just natural, where the person that talks the most and does the most when reviewing others food always never wins lol.
Well she won the next one, so there's that
@@el7284 yeah but the nastiness isn’t needed yunno
She only won cause she gave another contestant 0, and everyone else really low scores.. she was probably desperate to win 1 at that point
I’m Mexican American, nowhere Ghanian 😂 but I enjoyed this and love learning about other cultures. Love the accents 🖤❤️💛💚
Me too I love learning about new cultures too! I’m a British Ghanaian and I love telling people about my culture. It makes me happy to see when Ghanaian culture is being celebrated and promoted. However, I have some friends from different cultures who don’t show much of interest in my culture because they just worry about theirs or prefer another culture from my opinion. It can be hard to discuss these things especially with friends. That also could be the reason. It makes me happy people show an interest in my culture and want to ask questions.
I’m Ghanaian American I love Mexican culture!!
Girl, I feel that same way. I'm trying to learn Salvadorian and Mexican cuisine (my boyfriend is Salvadorian). We all have very similar cuisine with everyone's twist and names to the dishes. I'm not Ghanaian but the food looks delicious.
Ruth is so humble and her comments are kind
Roselind and Ruth were soo humble and weren't overly critical I love them! ❤️. Ama was fine too even if she has the lowest score she was fair.
I’m Nigerian and I enjoyed this video thoroughly. Time to get my Ghanaian friends to make Waayke for me 🤩
Proud Ghanaian here❤ 🇬🇭
I’m happy to see this as a Ghanaian. Although I was born in London, I love our food especially waakye. I’ve been waiting to see Ghanaian food displayed on this channel. ❤🇬🇭
same sis also a ghanaian girl from london! its about time they showcased ghanaian food!!
having love in your heart can affect your food and it clearly works for Ruth. She remained humble and not overly critical
OMG THANK YOU! I am not Ghanaian but i absolutely love Waakye! My favourite Rice dish ever! Got so tired of those basica "jollof wars" and the lack of appreciation for the masterpiece that is Waakye! I would just be happy to be able to try so many waakye dishes if i was there. The best Waakye is also the one that you can eat with Shito on its own and its still the best. I love Waakye with Egg, Shito and Stew or just Shito alone. I wouldnt have complained about no stew or no egg tbh, as long as there is tasty Waakye and a JAR or Shito, i am happy lmao. If there is Garri then its a Bonus.
exactly, tell them my friend
I'm happy with gari shito lol
@@dillilyeverage315 probably from a resturant
Hey fellow Cape-Verdean 🥰
Oh shut up
Glad Ruth won, she seems so lovely 🥰🙌🏿
You know she’s Ghanaian when she says “taliaaa”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 childhood memories
🤣🤣🤣🤣
So I wondered where that name Talia came from and was told the first most common spaghetti brand in Ghana was called Talia. And it stacked. Just like every toothpaste is called Pepsodent. 😂😂😂.
😂 😂 😂 And definitely not an indomie generation Ghanaian. She knows what's up. 😂
@@Ranaturelle hhhhhhhhh
As a Nigerian who schooled in Ghana! God!!!!!! I miss waakye 😩🥺🤲🏽
Buy the waakye /sorghum/oka baba/millet leave from women who sell agbo in the market
@@yazzsoltan7213 Oh! Wow, will definitely do. And maybe contact my Ghanaian friends on how to prepare it😌🤲🏽 . Thanks
yess
I love How Ruth is giving positive vibes all through the video. Happy she won!! :)
Waakye is a very tricky meal to prepare. It's basically a street food with a distinct flavour. The stew especially can let you down. Home waakye taste way too different from the street ones we buy from our mothers and sisters from the North. The colour, the taste , the texture, the spicy level any miss just throws the whole ensemble. For me if the waakye is not from the streets trust me I won't even try it😂😂
This comment is sooo accurate. Street and homemade are two entirely different entities loool
@@shellowu07 I was about to say that! It’s so true! I would even have accepted this challenge. Any food from the north/street I tricky to cook. For eg. my mum’s tuo zaafi is never like the one outside!!!😂😂😂😂
@@ehllarpearl Yesss- food from the north is very tricky to emulate well. Not just anyone can attempt 😅
This was my fav show years ago, I forgot about its existence.. glad algorithm both it back
This was very entertaining to watch. It’s a competition and each critiqued to their own tastebuds and experiences of what they have grown up eating. They all clearly had preferences. Well done ladies 😊
I'm Trinidadian and I love Ghanaian food 😋 I wish I could make it especially palm nut soup and pounded yam and jollof rice
ill make u food babee i love my triniss and hatians
Palm nut soup and fufu you mean…glad you enjoy our food ☺️
868 love! 🇹🇹
Pounded yam is Nigerian but love
@Rashad Bakshar no… We have some similarities foodwise but WAY more differences, so it’s not accurate to say ‘we basically eat the same food’. We def don’t.
Have been waiting for thisss❤ 🇬🇭
Throughly enjoyed this episode !! loved the competitiveness and critique. This made the episode juicer & funny. Well done to all the beautiful ladies ❤
Glad she won I loved her personality so free and genuine!
Finally omg I’ve been waiting to see Ghana featured for the longest, so excited to watch this 🎉
They all are so beautiful Omg
Akua is so bitter, not very nice person it seems. Glad that nice and kind woman won this.
She's actually not a bitter person at all. She's just very blunt
I have been waiting for this all my life. I have watch this competition of people from different countries and it's always fun😁😁😁😁. Ghanaians and waakye lovers let's gather here
I love Ruth! Always so kind.
Great video! Congratulations Ruth!
loveeee this!!! Banku and okro next pls😃
Akua is stunning
Thank you 😊
I love everybody on this line up 😭 they compliment each other so well
I've been waiting for this one... TURN IT UP!
Aunty Ama paaaaaa, please aunty next time add stew. Loved these beautiful Ghanaian mums 😍
I loved learnin a bit about Ghanaian food bring these ladies back they are entertaining and fun to watch eat
Ruth is such an awesome ray of sunshine. She seems super humble and kind when judging everyone.
Finally a Ghanaian version of this challenge 🙌🏽
Ruth is so beautiful! I can't get over it
my best friend is GHANAIAN her father is always feeding me! He's the reason I love onions so much now! God bless all the Ghanians ❤️
The onions comment took me out 🤣
@@Verteune LOL it's true tho! When we were 13/14 he would cook rice and make a huge pile of grilled onions I was so scared cuz I didn't like onions then but to my surprise it was sooo delicious 😋 I'm 30 now!
Ruth is stunning!! That glow is something else ✨️ Actually, all these lovely ladies are stunning 😍
I love akua’s voice sm
Am here for this my peoples are so straightforward 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭my girl Akua on this girl my sis that
I’m Nigerian-American so I don’t know the taste but I MUST TRY!! Love the concept of this video!!
I can teach you how to make it or search for sweet Adjeley on RUclips
Omds i’ve been waiting for this for the longest😩
They're all so beautiful
Yay! I love waakye and I love my people! 🇬🇭🇬🇭
Ghanaian food is so good. I haven't had any in ages, need to eat some soon.
Been waiting for this omg 🎉
Ruth is absolutely GORGEOUS!!!
And that red hair colour is so perfect for her!
Yeas I've been waiting for the Ghanaian version. 😄🎉
I want to experience all of these different cultures so bad. 😩😩❤️❤️
Finally! i love this
I love this series so much 😊
This is where we in the Caribbean get rice and peas from
Every Black Mama is amazing but Ghanian Mamas are top notch!
They won't marry you though 🤣🤣
@@BoskiM Ghanaians and Ethiopians are kinda similar when it comes to marriage. They’ll hardly bypass a Ghanaian man for one from elsewhere. Even though they know most of these Ghana men ain’t shit. 😂😂😂.
I already love this video
I’m watching this while eating waakye lmaooo! I loved this! ❤
I don't like Akua don't bring her next time
I agree, so nasty and still lost
All the Ghanaian videos was filmed on the same day but they're just gonna space out the upload, so it's gonna be the same cast regardless.
@@momo-cchi5978 ok, but don’t bring back after that 😭
She’s the biggest hater
We need someone to laugh at
“I should’ve gone with my instincts” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ruth is GORGEOUS! My God!😍😍😍
Ruth is a vibe. Congrats
Thank you❤❤
Yes I use to eat Waakye when my former pastor use to take me to the Ghanaian food store. Waakye with egg, stew, and shito🔥🔥
This was a delicious meal...especially when I lived in Ghana !!! The stew it comes with and the shito ... i make it occasionally if j can find the leaves in harlseden lol
Been waiting for this 😢
I love this group of mums!! Not the sweetest group but is definitely the funniest lol
Well done to ALL the ladies! Y’all really made Ghana 🇬🇭 proud with being the first group of women on this channel showcasing our local delicacies!
Please can we all learn to respect people’s personal opinions!
If it was so easy to judge, you’d all have a chance at it. Stop being cyber bullies and go do something better with yourselves!
Spread love, not hate! If you can’t appreciate people’s personal opinions, don’t go on social media #period!
P.S. BuzzFeed, please do a Liberian 🇱🇷 food segment please 😊
Liberian…let me work something up
NOW THIS IS WHAT IM BEEN WAITING FAH 😂
This is my favorite of Ghanian food ,love that Waachye is finally being featured on the show
The dishes aside can these women drop their beauty routines?? Their skin is GLOWING.
This Ghanaian cooking competition is all about fun,unity, Peace and Love ❤️ But I don't understand why certain people are using it as an advantage to attack one particular person all because she stands out with excellency and charisma. I am calling out all those pointing fingers with insults to Akua to stop.
The hate is too much and is not on.Is all about Love and fun as I said. Expecting your next show
Watching from Ghana and you guys did well
Thank you
Exactly! Well said Caroline! Everyone doesn’t like to be told opinions but that’s what this show is about! She specifically said “for me” as she described each dish!
I really didn’t see the harshness or rudeness everyone was referring to! Some people prefer to be direct and that doesn’t always go down well with hypocrisy
I Adore these vids, even when the cooks are mean or snarky about each other, the main thing is I Learn About Cultural Foods! 🥥🌰🍄
Also, what a Lesson! Waakye means Beans & I found out the 'Leaves" they refer to are Sorghum! 🤩
I love this series
This one was hella good!
Waakye in the morning is good but heavy...but soo good lol 🇬🇭❤🇬🇭❤🇬🇭❤
More Ghanaian videos please😃
Eh hehhhhh tank you! Ive been waiting for a waakye competition. Not everyday Jollof! Waakye is more elite anyway
Why are they all so pretty
Love this episode a lot of people didn’t mention this is a Hausa dish that was incorporated into the northern region of Ghana and made it ways down the country with different takes and additions. 🎉🎉
It’s not a Hausa dish ,it’s a northern Ghanaian dish ,there is not tribe like Hausa in Ghana,Hausas in Ghana originally came from Niger ,Chad n Nigeria and they didn’t bring waakye to Ghana
Which Hausa? LOL.. The Northeners from Ghana didn’t invent this masterpiece for the glory to be given to other people🤦🏾♀️
@@narkietetteh Ghana is multiethnic and multitribal. So there are Hausa people who live and identify as Ghanaian nationally and have lived in the northern region of Ghana for centuries. Secondly it depends on whichever source you want to look at but waakye means beans in Hausa and more appropriately shinkaafa da waakye translates to rice and beans and is the full name of the dish. It has been adapted and recreated across the country and is now fully associated as a Ghanaian cuisine. Thank you :)
@@Thrilller525 my dear, as a Ghanaian I am very well versed with the various ethnicities or tribes in Ghana. I agree that there are Hausas that settled down in Ghana and identify as Ghanaians but it will shock you to know that most of these Hausas are found rather in the Southern part of Ghana. The people of the Northern part of Ghana are sometimes erroneously referred to as Hausas even by some Ghanaians. No, they are not Hausas. They are collectively called the "Dagbon" people and some of the tribes include; Dagomba, Mamprusi, Frafra, Sisala etc. Regarding "shinkafa da waake" it is a meal that is found all over West Africa. Every country has it's own variation but "Waakye" as coined by Ghanaians is a meal style prepared only in Ghana. It is peculiar to us most particularly the people of Northern Ghana
@@narkietetteh thank you for the information I think I’ve just heard from different sources different things so I’m glad to hear different perspectives of the subject. Appreciated :)
The "I should've gone with my instincs line" 🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣 the panel felt that
They are sooooo DRAMATIC!!! They know damn well it wasn’t THAT bad
I think I'm addicted to watching these beautiful ladies, good job to all these beautiful women.
Loved it!!! How can I or my husband join any of the competitions please? 🇬🇭 😀
