bitter cola is one of the best things you bought. you peal it first before eating either way eating with skin is ok too. is medicine, especially it can help for stomach ache, cold etc you should eat one daily.
The bitter stuff(”Bitter Colanut” is the name) you eat is a very powerful medication there in Cameroon. It's like a first aid box, if you have any health issue like stomach ache, vomiting, etc… just eat half of it and in less than 5 minutes you'll come back. Let me not talk about when you mix it with some other herbs, the combo is great! I enjoy your videos so much!
7:20 you had there bitter cola. I hope you took some along with you. It is a very powerful nut. Try doing some research on it. A real gem with a lot of health benefits. I hope you enjoyed your stay in Cameroon.
How do you eat smoked fish like that? Lol. It is called "bitter cola", I also hate the pungent smell and terrible taste, however, they say it is very healthy.
Thank you so much Dvae for showcasing my lovely country to the world. I'm glad you enjoy our food, and i won't judge you if you didn't like 'bitttercola'. As a Cameroonian I do not like it either.😅
Il faut reconnaître que les dirigeants du Cameroun 🇨🇲 ont beaucoup a donné en terme d'infractions Si non le pays a un grand potentiel touristique Je vous propose de faire un tour au grand nord du pays : Parc , savane, gorges ... vraiment MERCI du fait que vous vous intéressez au Cameroun malgré sa situation
Hi there. A nice completely different Vlog Done completely in a moving car. I loved the content and concept roo. The dried fish and plantains looked really mouth watering. Thanks once again.❤
Bita cola=Bitter Cola (because there is a different one less bitter than this one). If you consume it regularly, it hard to be KO by malaria. Very popular for the fact in Congo 🇨🇩
Cola nut. 500 CFA is about US$1 ??? that's what it was 42 years ago too. However a bottle of beer was perhaps 300 to 500 CFA only. A decent room for a night was only 1500 CFA and a really good one (for there) was 5000 CFA. No huge multinational hotel chains back then. Fully air con hotels were almost non existent. The 5000 CFA per night were with in window A/C. Considering that my salary in Nigeria was about US $10 a day ($300 per month) I couldn't afford the A/C rooms very much.
Encore une belle vidéo du Cameroun . Les beignets c'est trop bon 😅 et les autres aussi 😅❤. J'espère que vous vous êtes bien amuser lors de ce petit Voyage au Cameroun 🇨🇲 et que vous en garderez de bon souvenirs. ❤❤
The bitter nut is actually called bitter kola(gracinia kola) and it has many medicinal properties , i like the fact you decided to visit Cameroon and let the world know more about it😊
Every body who are travelling have to have bitter kola. Because we can have est some thing which is not good for stomach. Like to ses canadien in my country
I love your videos guys, I watch them as they remind me of home lol. The seed you didn't like is called bitter Kola and it is very very helpful for health issues and always good to have at home. and also I think the price for it was spot on as it tends to be expensive some times. Have fun guys🙂
bitter cola, also known as bitter kola or Garcinia kola, is a fruit-bearing tree native to West and Central Africa, including Cameroon. The bitter cola nut is often used in traditional medicine and is known for its bitter taste and potential health benefits. It's sometimes chewed or used to make extracts for various medicinal purposes due to its supposed medicinal properties, such as improving digestion and acting as an aphrodisiac.
We don't eat that fish way, we cook it in a stew before eating. What you ate at the seventh minute of the video is called "bitter cola" in fact we cannot really call it a street food, its like a natural medicine very good for health. We usually eat it when we have stomach ache from eating food difficult to digestion... We also eat it to calm down hunger. In fact it is a great natural medicine that's why the taste sour! I mean medicine is not meant to be sweet to the tongue!😅
Things you do for adventure and the all the food you ate on your way wow😮 I thought the traffic in Nairobi was crazy but I suppose this is similar in most African countries 💕
Those nuts are called bitter cola. It doesn't taste so great but it's not meant to be eaten as snacks. It's eaten in Cameroon mostly while traveling as a detoxifier, really useful if you want to prevent stomach issues. It's also really medicinal
@@DaveMani did you make it to North Cameroon -Garoua, Ngoundere or Maroua? Let me know if you need help? And I haven't seen any video of you in any of the English-speaking regions.
Hi Dave, Interesting videos from my Country Cameroun 🇨🇲. Just wanted to drop some comments on your experience driving back to Yaoundé. That “Bitter” thing you bought for 500 CFA francs which is the right price by the way, is called “Bitter Kola”, and in some other parts of the world it’s called “Garnicia Kola”. It has a lot of medicinal virtues and one the most popular is male enhanced sex drive, especially when taken with Guinness beer, you’ll be surprised the girlfriend will be asking for more, and I’m not kidding. The other one is preventing you from getting upset stomach. Yes, it has a bitter taste so I would recommend you take it after dinner and or a couple of hours before going to bed. Hope you have a wonderful stay in Cameroon 🇨🇲.
Yeah that fruit is called "bitter cola" it's really really bitter I literally hate that but it's very medicinal,helps with stomach ache and others which I don't know about but people talk about it alot
7:00 What you ate Its called "bita cola" To eat it you have to remove the skin first😅😅😅 I love my country. Most attractive stuff in cameroon is the food.
@@DaveMani it tastes bitter, but excellent medicine for the body. The palm wine you had in Yaoundé is taken with bitter cola or with the non-bitter cola. Happy you had fun on the trip. You are a Cameroonian!!!
😂😂😂 Bitter kola. It's a medicinal nut. Treats stomach ache and other gut issues . Very bitter but healthy . The fish is not a snack😂you have to cook it in food
@@DaveMani great U know, our country is much like Canada in terms of official languages, except English is in the minority here, with just 2 out of 10 Regions
I'm cameroonian, and i can't even stand bitter cola😂😂😂😂😂 That man really lied through his teeth Bitter cola is more of a medicinal kinda nut but even if i was dying and only bitter cola could save me, i will die😂😂😂😂
6:51 : it's called BITTER COLA an African afridisiac cola😂😂😂😂😂 And the fish is not meant to be eaten as snack they use it to cook other food like eru soups and ect....
Check out our time in Kribi! 🇨🇲➡️ ua-cam.com/video/K0pecDQlo_k/v-deo.htmlsi=kZXlyafFQXwJpIq0
Hi Dave happy to see you enjoying my lovely country just a quick question how much and where did you rent your car?
bitter cola is one of the best things you bought. you peal it first before eating either way eating with skin is ok too. is medicine, especially it can help for stomach ache, cold etc you should eat one daily.
Fun fan the smoked fish is not meant to be a snack or street food. It inly makes sense when added to a soup😂😂😂
I was told after the fact... 🤣
You guys are crazy. 300kms and you've tasted almost every food by the road.
Things you do for adventure and our eyes! Merci.
Haha it was a great time :p
The bitter stuff(”Bitter Colanut” is the name) you eat is a very powerful medication there in Cameroon. It's like a first aid box, if you have any health issue like stomach ache, vomiting, etc… just eat half of it and in less than 5 minutes you'll come back.

correct 👍👍
Yeah I was told after the fact haha. The seller only said they were very tasty! :P
yup :)
Dans le soda Coca Cola, Cola est pour la noix de Colas (rouge)! Donc le coca cola est un mélange de coca (la feuille) et de cola (la noix)
Let me also add that it enhances your sexual intensity. Very popular in Central and West Africa!!
7:20 you had there bitter cola. I hope you took some along with you. It is a very powerful nut. Try doing some research on it. A real gem with a lot of health benefits. I hope you enjoyed your stay in Cameroon.
Very powerful indeed! Hahaha

@@DaveMani so you probably beat your personal record that evening
You were definetely duped by the dude that sold you the bitter stuff for 500 francs. This was such a wholesome video. Loved it!
I don't know people are saying that that is the normal price. I mean 500xaf is about $1 so... 👍🏼
It's the actual price for that amount of "Bitter Cola"
That's the price for that that amount , it would have been more quantity if he was in a village village area
@@TECHSAVI_1 that's good to know. I'm loving this series.
