People where Quang Linh lives eat rocks on the street, Khoai Lang Thang witnessed the shock

Khoai Lang Thang is a famous Youtuber with a huge number of followers not only because of his charming smile but also because of his interesting experiences everywhere. Recently, he had the opportunity to set foot in Africa,

With a passion for food, love of travel and culture of regions and countries, Khoai Lang Thang has become a beloved travel blogger icon. His videos not only bring joy and relaxation to the audience but also convey positive and loving messages to the community.

In his latest journey, Khoai Lang Thang also set foot in Africa - which is also where Quang Linh Vlogs chose to live and work. While Quang Linh Vlogs and the African team stayed in his homeland Angola, Khoai Lang Thang chose to set foot in Madagascar - an island nation with rows of giant baobab trees.

After achieving his dream of setting foot in the homeland of giant baobab trees, of course, what makes everyone equally curious is Khoai Lang Thang's journey to experience street food in Africa. And without keeping everyone waiting long, following Khoai Lang Thang, street food in Madagascar makes anyone who watches it feel close and authentic.

Accordingly, in a recent vlog, Khoai Lang Thang explored Kibera market - a place called by Kenyans as the third largest slum in the world. He said that this market sells everything in the world, overwhelming because of its large scale. From clothes to countless local fruits, everything is displayed everywhere and at very cheap prices.

Most notably, they also sell rocks and soil to... eat. The rocks are placed in plastic baskets and sold for 3 - 5 KES (equivalent to 500 - 1000 VND).

After listening to the locals' explanation, Khoai Lang Thang introduced the rocks that are sold as food: "There are some rocks here and people sell them too. They sell them for 1000 VND each. Guess what people use these rocks for? They eat them. These rocks provide minerals. When pregnant or lacking in nutrients, people will eat them to provide more minerals for their bodies."

As proof of his sharing, the man accompanying Khoai Lang Thang did not hesitate to take out a piece of crushed ice and eat it deliciously.

As for Khoai Lang Thang, he neither tried nor bought those ice cubes. He and everyone else only bought some common vegetables and fruits such as cabbage, bananas, tomatoes, bell peppers, beans, apples, watermelons, etc. to cook for lunch.

"The biggest difference is that it takes 2-3 hours to cook a normal meal here. And Khoai is not just a customer but also an apprentice chef, rolling up his sleeves to join in the cooking" - Khoai Lang Thang recounted.

Many viewers were also concerned about the fact that locals place stoves directly on gas tanks for cooking. Some expressed concerns about safety, but others said that this was a daily routine in the area and would be difficult to change.

Previously, Khoai Lang Thang also had the opportunity to participate in the Independence Day of the people of Madagascar in the capital city of Antananarivo, tens of thousands of people joined together in the great and important holiday. On that crowded evening, Khoai Lang Thang also shared with everyone the street food they had the chance to enjoy.

Right after Independence Day, Khoai Lang Thang continued to walk around the market on a regular day to explore the street food journey here. The traditional Madagascar cake looks quite special, wrapped in banana leaves on the outside, with peanuts inside, with each thin slice costing about 11,000 VND. Oysters and clams are eaten raw when drizzled with a vinegar made from chili, ginger, shallots or lemon.

Khoai Lang Thang shared a special thing here, which is the plastic boxes selling spaghetti. There are only a few bowls, washed and sold directly to people eating on the spot, however, he "gently reminded" that it is contraindicated for people with weak stomachs.

African cuisine is more diverse and rich than many people think, including many unique dishes that not everyone dares to eat.

Giant Snail

Africans believe that snails live in fertile soil, so they are large and non-toxic. Therefore, they prefer to eat wild snails more than other types of snails. These snails are often processed into grilled, boiled or stir-fried snails. It is estimated that Africans eat up to 15 million tons of giant snails each year.

Grilled sheep head

This dish is made from lamb, which sounds very normal until you see it on the plate. Africans often leave the sheep's head intact, marinate it with spices, and finally grill it. Except for the presentation, which looks quite like a horror movie scene, this is a delicious dish, the grilled lamb has a sweet, chewy, and fragrant taste that makes you want to eat it forever.

African Termite

This is a protein-rich dish for the majority of Africans. Those who have tasted this dish all agree that the taste of termites is similar to that of carrots. Africans usually catch termites and dry them to eat gradually or stir-fry them when they are still fresh.

African Palm Weevil

In terms of appearance, palm worms look not much different from Vietnamese coconut worms. However, instead of living in coconut trees, they live in palm tree trunks. Unlike Vietnamese people, Africans prefer to stir-fry palm worms. This dish is considered extremely nutritious, rich in protein and fat.
