Food

Most of us chew and swallow our food without a thought of how or why it’s utilized within the body. If there is one thing about food, its never just food. Food is a defining feature in every culture. Despite its basic purpose of sustaining life, food and foodways of a culture are archives that can be used to connect to origin and ancestry.

There are places you visit that connect you back to origin and ancestry, that transmit communal wisdom, that affirm both the individual and group identities. Bolgatanga in the upper east region Ghana, is such a place.

I truly believe, that every soul with a physical body needs to ask themselves the question, how close does the foods I am eating resemble their original state? Is the food I am eating, made in a lab or can it be found in nature. We assume if it’s sold at our supermarket that it’s edible, and useable by the body. This just simply isn’t so. I urge you friends to read your food labels, know what ingredients you are feeding your body because your lives depends on it.
