Traditional African diet?
Fried chicken and watermelon?
Relax. It’s a joke.
What is the live expectancy of the average African?
Real food is IMO worth it.
I ain’t eating monkeys. That will get you Ebola.
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what’s right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
Joking aside, I love Ethiopian buffets.
A "TYPICAL "RSA Afrikaner diet" is NOTHING at all even remotely like what's in the article and neither are "TRADITIONAL DIETS" throughout that continent!
Yes, a LOT of Americans ( the populace of other nations do to!) eat far too much fast food; however, not everyone even eats it sometimes, or ever!
‘Frican?
More like South Beach You-rope eatin’.
[Is there an (North African) Islamic Diet?]
Average life expectancy is Africa is 63. The U.S. is 78.4. so, hard pass for me on this crap.
Interesting.
My cousin was a missionary journeyman serving in Sudan quite a few years back; as an honored guest she was proudly served termites. She really had no choice but to eat them, lol.
My diet is crap; I should probably look into this way of eating. Thanks for posting!
It’s basically the Mediterranean Diet..........
I think "mbege" is pronounced "daiquiri".
I'm still waiting for the "Eat ze bugs!" punch line.

Can one’s diet affect one’s IQ?
Went to an African restaurant while in Santa Fe years ago. Some of the worst food I’d had in a long time. They can keep it.
There is no traditional american diet.
You eat quality food in reasonable amounts, you get less health problems and the food works for you, not against you.
That includes good natural fats from meat, eggs and the best quality dairy you can get.
We’re kinda short on Ethiopian buffets around here...........

Bingo. Define the diet. Africa includes Arabs in northern Africa which have nothing in common with the rest of the continent. Nonsense.
“...traditional fermented banana drink (Mbege) also showed anti-inflammatory effects...”
Are Margaritas health beneficial? [Hold scurvy at bay?]
