15 Cameroonian Meals the Whole World Should be Enjoying
One of the things Cameroon is blessed with is food! There is so much variety in dishes and so many ways to use main ingredients. I’m making this post to honour Cameroonian food and tell the world that if you’ve never eaten Cameroonian, then you are missing out on a whole lot. Here are fifteen Cameroon meals the whole world, including you, should be enjoying.

    1. U are so right, Bubu. I must add that the Cameroonian entire name of the dish is Ekwang Coco(yam). Decades ago, I was on a business tour in Enugu. When I was presented with Ekwang Coco, I wrongly assumed my Hosts were trying to bring me some memories back from Cameroon SW or LT! Yet, when I learn it was local dish too, I was still so grateful.

      So many Thx Sis
