    Africans generally eat the following foods:

    1. Grains, fruits, and meat are the main foods of Africans. African countries are not much different from us in terms of food, rice and corn are common staple foods, but agriculture in Africa is not well developed. Therefore, most poor people choose cassava as a staple food, compared to rice and corn, cassava** is more affordable and very satiating.

    2. Africans like to mix beef, mutton, potatoes and other ingredients with cassava flour, and can also use plantain instead of cassava, mash it with a tool and wrap it in leaves to steam. There are five main categories of fruits in Africa: oranges, watermelons, bananas, mangoes, and pineapples, and most of the vegetables in Africa are cabbage, potatoes, tomatoes, onions and pumpkins, and African seafood is also a very common and cheap food.

    Africans generally eat corn, wheat, cassava, bananas and other foods as staple foods. For example, some poor places in Africa eat cassava, that is, the cassava is roasted on the fire and eaten, and some people cook cassava and knead it into balls and eat it as a condiment. Cassava cannot be eaten raw, otherwise it will be poisoned.

    If it can be eaten raw, I believe that many Africans will skip the process of roasting, boiling, steaming and other processes, and eat it directly. There are also some Africans who eat seafood, because the vast majority of countries in Africa are coastal countries, and the seafood here is good and cheap, and there are many varieties that have not been seen in the country.

Isn't it that you lose your appetite just by looking at the name?

    The black brothers in Angola also eat rice, and before cooking, they will put oil, salt and other seasonings with onions and carrots, but the quality of the rice here is not good, and the cheap rice is basically not fragrant and soft, and the taste is the same as foam particles. The types and tastes of locally produced food are similar to those in China, and onions are the most delicious daily vegetables.

    The people live on food.

    In the hearts of the Chinese people, eating is a first-class event.

    In backward Africa, what do they rely on to fill their stomachs?

    Cassava. When it comes to the status of cassava in Africa, it is equivalent to the status of rice and wheat in China.

    It is one of the staple foods of African eggplanters.

    Once, during the famine in our country, Tuanlu also ate cassava, and later with the change of quality of life, cassava gradually left the table.

    Cassava is adaptable, drought tolerant and barren. In areas with an average annual temperature of more than 18 and a frost-free period of more than 8 months, it can be planted in mountains and plains. These excellent varieties of cassava make it loved by African people.

    In Africa, locals eat it by steaming, boiling, roasting, or knowing.

    For example, mashing steamed cassava and kneading it into dough becomes another delicacy (fufu).

    It has a pale yellow appearance and a taste similar to rice cakes, and it has a strong sense of satiety.

    Shima. Locally known as corn meal, corn is ground into flour, poured in boiling water, stirred while pouring, and finally left to cool and wait for condensation. The finished product is See-Man.

    However, because it has no taste, when locals eat it, it is usually served with sauce or other side dishes.

    Rice bananas. Also known as:"African sweet potato"It looks like a banana, but it is larger and thicker than a banana, and some rice bananas are more than a meter long.

    Known as one of the two main foods of black Africans along with fufu, it has the status of bread equivalent to Westerners and steamed buns in China, and is made by slicing rice bananas, steaming them in a pot or baking them in the oven, and tastes a bit like potatoes.

    The taste is extremely astringent when eaten raw, and it is generally peeled and fried, becoming soft and glutinous and sweet.

    Gusmi. It is one of the staple foods in North African countries such as Morocco, Libya, and Tunisia.

    Couscous is revered as the national dish by Tunisians, and a plate of delicious couscous is always placed on the table on major festivals or when guests visit.

    Food can reflect the cultural flavor of a country, of course, although Africa is backward, but it has a lot of land.

    There will still be other delicacies.

    What do Africans eat when they don't have meat? I have never eaten rice or noodles, and I depend on this food for my survival.

    On the earth, there are many countries, and there are countless countries, nationalities, and so on on each continent. Because of their different geographical environments and climatic conditions, these countries or nations have formed very distinctive living habits, eating habits, and so on. I don't know which country or region you are most interested in?

    Xiaobai is more interested in Africa, which is in our impression that Africa is very backward, and we often hear things like "African people can't get enough to eat". According to Xiaobai, the diet of African people is mainly based on meat. So what would they eat if they didn't have meat to eat?

    Let's go and see it today.

    In Africa, most of the ingredients are natural because most people are lazy and reluctant to engage in farming. On days when they don't have meat, they like to eat a food called "sami". Pictured here is an African woman making a sam.

    We can see that this sprinkling is white mushy food.

    It turns out that the so-called sa fan is the corn paste we often eat. Put a large amount of corn kernels into a pot, pour in an appropriate amount of water and bring to a boil slowly. When it is completely boiled, it is pounded and stirred with a "hammer" made of wood, and after about 30 minutes of making, it becomes a pure white corn paste that is very sticky.

    Because there are a lot of carbs in the ssake, you only need to eat one meal a day to last all day. When eating, it will be eaten with some daily foods, because the fans are almost tasteless and difficult to swallow, but it is their favorite food. That's why we see that most Africans are fatter.

    So in Africa, even on days when they don't have meat, they can find the right ingredients to survive. However, in Africa, there are no delicacies such as rice or noodles, and it can be said that there are many people who can be found everywhere. I don't know what different opinions my friends will have after reading it?

    You might as well complain about it.

    Personally, I think your most important question is how to gain weight.

    Is 180 short? Are you sure?

    And then you're already so skinny, don't have a tight top.

    The problem with the first picture is the color of the shirt. as well as the choice of jeans.

    The colors are too jumpy. Then you have a tight upper body and a loose lower body, which will only make you look thinner.

    The problem with the second picture is the color. The color of the bag. As well as the choice of pants. The upper body is clothes that make people feel heavy. Choose a color for the lower body that makes you feel heavy.

    And I feel that the two pictures are not the feeling of one person

    Now let's take a look at the correct way to open your clothes.

    The owner of the first floor is very thin, and his shoulders are not wide enough to go, so it is recommended not to wear a very tight fit. Keep in mind.

    The combination of the second upper body and pants. The pants are mainly pants with slightly small feet.。。

    Find a picture. Please fit the length of the pants, please fit the size, please get used to changing the length of the pants.

    One more one. <>

    Personally, I haven't studied the UK. However, whether it is Korean or British, it is only the difference in clothes, but the reason for how to look good is the same.

    The model in the picture is not fatter than you.

    Choose a strong sense of heaviness for the upper body, and don't deliberately buy pants with big legs for the lower body. Please fit, please fit, please fit.

    Let's talk about your coat again. The choice is incorrect. Why.. Let's dedicate myself to the words.

    <> there are too many buttons, and the two pieces on the shoulders have long disappeared from many thicker coats these days.

    Come to the English prince.

    <> heavy top + well-fitting pants.

    And a long time ago, Becky's.

    <> summed up two points: boys' coats don't like to have a slim body. There are also decorations that do not require too much complexity. Simplicity is fine.

    Then I found one that looked very similar to yours.

    I haven't figured out what to say yet. Put it first. But although the clothes are very similar, it feels much worse.

    The African way to eat it is to grind corn into corn flour, boil a pot of water, and then slowly pour the corn flour in, while pouring the corn flour, stir it with a wooden spoon in one direction to let the corn flour spread evenly, and finally slowly coagulate into a lump of corn paste.

    To be honest, I guess this dust, wood chips and so on will run into this bucket.

    Just like rice and white flour are to us Chinese, this is also a staple food that people in southern Africa cannot live without.

    This staple food made from corn paste has different names in other African countries, but it is actually the same thing.

    Eat the same life as we do.

    Origin of the name. Africa is the abbreviation of "Africa", English: Africa.

    There are many interesting legends about the origin of the word Africa: one legend is that in ancient times, a chieftain named Africus invaded North Africa in 2000 BC and founded a city there called Afrikyah, which later became known as Africa. Another legend is that "Africa" is the name of a goddess worshipped by the Berbers living in North Africa.

    The goddess is a patron saint and is said to have been found in a temple by the Berbers as early as the 1st century BC, a young woman dressed in elephant skin. Since then, the name of the goddess "Africa" has been adopted as the name of the African continent. There is also a theory that the word Africa is derived from the Latin aprica, which means "the place where the sun is scorching", and the sun in North Africa is indeed much hotter than that of Greece and Rome on the northern shore of the Mediterranean.

    In addition, afri is a common name for North Africa and Carthaginians, and is generally thought to be related to the Phoenician word afar, "dust". However, in 1981 there was a new theory that the term is derived from the Berber word ifri, or "cave", referring to the troglodytes of this area. However, after the ancient Romans defeated the Carthaginians in three Punic wars, they continued to expand and established the province of Africa, and the meaning of the name continued to expand.

    Initially, the name was limited to the northern regions of the African continent. By the 2nd century AD, the Roman Empire's territory in Africa had expanded to cover a vast area in the northeast, from the Strait of Gibraltar to Egypt, and the Romans or natives who lived here were collectively called Africans, meaning Africans. This place was also called "African", and later referred to the African continent in general.

    Since the Middle Ages, it has also been used as an affrike in English to refer to Africa.

    According to the latest United Nations Geographic Programme of the Statistics Division of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Africa is divided into North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa (Sub-Saharan Africa is divided into Central Africa, East Africa, South Africa, and West Africa), a total of 60 countries and regions.
