6 of Ghana's delicious snacks of all time

Just so you know, we had our own traditional snacks before the western ones raided the markets. These local snacks are arguably more nutritious. These snacks are made out of natural foods with no artificial additives.

Unfortunately, what we see now is young folks rushing for foreign foods to prove they have ‘sophisticated taste’.

So what are these locally-made snacks of all times? Let’s find out.
