@hostedbylihle is redefining how we connect with what’s on our plate. From experimenting with indigenous ingredients to introducing children to fun, nutritious food, she’s using her platform to tell her own story and reminding us all that food can be playful, colorful, and deeply rooted in ...culture.🥜

We chat to her about her journey to becoming a chef, what is inspiring her lately and how young African chefs are taking control of their own narrative through digital spaces.

Can we have a round of applause for fonio, please?

Chef Pierre Thiam has a way of making you fall in love with this little grain, one seriously tasty plate at a time.

And if you already know fonio but haven’t quite figured out what to do with it, consider this your sign to get ...cooking.

Watch @chefpierrethiam make the case for giving some of our most overlooked foods a little more love.

Have you cooked with fonio before? And should we drop a fonio recipe for you to try?

Baobab is one of the most nutrient-dense wild fruits on the planet. Naturally drying right on the branch, its pulp delivers a powerful punch of Vitamin C, prebiotic fiber, and antioxidants with a deliciously refreshing, citrusy flavor.

Beyond its health benefits, wild-harvested baobab ...supports rural livelihoods and protects ancient, climate-resilient trees across the African savanna.

Swipe through to discover how this incredible superfruit feeds both people and the planet! 🌍🥤

Healthy foods shouldn't be a luxury. We know what drives the price—and we know many of the solutions. So what’s stopping us?

It’s not your imagination. The average cost of a healthy diet has increased 25% since 2021.
👉Around one in three people globally cannot afford good... food, making the cost of nutritious food one of the biggest barriers to ending hunger and malnutrition.
👉 70-75% of the price people pay is added after food leaves the farm, through storage, transport, processing and other parts of the food system.
👉The percentage of people unable to afford a healthy diet is highest in Africa (66.6%) and double that of other regions.

We are entering a crucial period as world leaders gather across global summits. Now is the time to raise our voices together and remind decision-makers that healthy, good foods shouldn't be a luxury.
