more about food

although fried rice isn't actually ghanaian, it is very easy to find
here. after a long day of traveling, there's just nothing like
finding a stand with good fried rice.
i have grown to like it just the way it comes.
in a plastic bag:
fried rice
a chicken leg
a sliced hard boiled egg
a squirt of ketchup
a squirt of mayonaise
a scoop of shito, a fish based spicy sauce
a few shreds of lettuce
if you want to be american when you eat it, dump it into a bowl and
use a fork. or, if you don't care, just bite the corner off the bag
and squish it into your mouth.
