I would try some of those snail dishes but they’re vastly different in my culture. In my Italian-Canadian family, we grew up eating snails. My grandfather would pick them after a rain fall. He would then house them in make shift wire cages and feed them dried pasta for a couple of weeks to clean out their internal organs. He would then wash them three times thoroughly in buckets of cold fresh water and salt. After that my grandmother would boil them in fresh water. Once cooked they would be added to homemade sauce and served. She would also garnish them with extra virgin olive oil, fresh squeezed lemon juice, fresh chopped garlic and fresh chopped Italian parsley. Delicious! 🇮🇹🇨🇦
To be very honest , I love this one more than the one I am seeing in the video 😅.. Your grandfather seems to be the type of person who loves to cook clean food , same as me 🫂
Wow! That's quite a process! The Italians have such a love for food. I enjoy making pasta from scratch but never imagined feeding the leftovers to snails. How would you compare them to shrimp? Somewhere between a mussel and prawn? I'm not in the 'Eat ze bugs' crowd, but if something is palatable I'd put my reservations aside and give it a try. Snails seem to be a sustainable source of food.
@@moon-moth1 Mmm, beef. I probably could manage to eat snails, I'm already a fan of oyster and mussels. Snail isn't that big of a stretch. I think my biggest ick about eating bugs is they're not large enough to remove the digestive track. It's not about meat, I just don't want to eat the contents of a creatures lower bowels. Humans also can't digest chitin so a sudden influx of it could cause health problems. If say a cricket were the size of a lobster and could be peeled from it's shell and the digestive track removed I imagine eating one wouldn't have quite the mental block.
Being sarcastic he said "I am sure the plantain leaves are impacting so much flavour through the plastic" ...he is very right, the plantain leaves were supposed to impact its flavour and medicinal properties into the Fante kenkey but with so called "modernization" they use plastic which then impacts its chemicals into the kenkey...no need for the rubber at all!
Yikes, why would anyone think snails are food? Glad that in my part of the world we only do mainstream food. (even though there's plenty of wildlife including snails)
Probably not,not a fan of snails myself but most things are considered disgusting when its Africans consuming them,if its oysters for example its ok but both are equally🤮 @emtee5232
Been here in Ghana for 8 years and haven't tries these foods. Sonny was amazing showing this side of Ghana. I'll try some of it someday. #filipinoinghanaafrica
How would you feel if he came to your country insult your food. Lol I love watching him because you can tell when he doesn’t like it but still remains respectful, part of the reason why I watch him consistently and why he’s grown exponentially

This was a really great episode, ! I visited Ghana and spent a lot of time in Kumasi, what an amazing country! Abby is a great reflection of how the Ghanian people are.
As Ghanaian, i think, as i believe every Ghanaian who watches this will agree with me, she has represented Our Country Well ❤ I've watched all three and it only gets better . Thats awesome! I'm proud
@@EricBirdFaeldonia It depends on the person preparing. I really like them but not with the slime. I don't know the preparation well, but when my mum prepare them she used the lime to wash the slimy substance. Remember in Ghana it depends on the cook who does the meal but most people do wash the slime with lime.
FIRST time I tried Snail I was SO nervous but when I had the first bite I was shocked, so tender and delicious! This was in Paris, and they are common there- here in Vancouver we have none!
Cos I heard that the US government, I don't know which year, but the government invested and all snails were exterminated. Currently, I know you can't enter the US with snail
@@nanaarhin5567 what are you talking about lol, it's possible to import snail from overseas. It's the main component of one of the vietnamese dishes in any region in the U.S that has a sizable vietnamese population (Oc Len Xao Dua, basically snail in coconut milk)). You just cannot import it as a consumer, but as a business, they are free to import them for consumption. In fact, the U.S is the largest importer of snail from Vietnam.
They have snails in both United States and Canada, just mainly saltwater ones though, I’ve not heard anyone eating the banana snails that are everywhere in Washington state due to the fear of parasites.
I can eat snail with anything! I just don’t like the slime 🙈. I just douze them in lime/orange juice or fresh tomato 🍅 . Another trick, snails should be last item put in your soups or stews. That way you have the moist, fleshy juice texture and bite. And please don’t miss the snail water. It rounds your dishes. Snails are bougie 🤑 man’s food in Ghana 🇬🇭 because they are expensive! This video was beautiful to watch. ❤❤❤
I typically don’t leave a comment until after I watch a video, but I’m about 1 min 40 seconds in and I already thought, “why don’t more places have these gigantic snail farms”? I mean, if they taste good…and honestly, if you’re inventive and know the basics of cooking and flavor matching anything can be made to taste good, then this could be a fantastic remedy for hungry people all over the world. It seems that snails of all things would be fairly easy to farm in all geographic areas and all climates. They don’t take up too much space….like large livestock does and they’re an excellent source of protein. And most importantly, I think that even people who aren’t willing to add insects to their diets would be willing to try snail. Especially if you cook it in some way that looks more appealing to those who don’t want to eat it right out of the shell. And snails this large could be prepared like small filets or steak-like cuts….or butchered in a way that would make them more appealing to everyone. Like how some ppl prefer to eat shellfish already removed from the shells. Eg: scallops, lobster tail, large clams (geoduck). Ok, on to the video. Can’t wait to see how these snail farms work and how the meat is prepared and eaten. ✌🏻😊
My thoughts exactly, if it was proven to be more ecological than cattle I'd switch over. Atleast the french style snails in garlic butter are really good and the texture is fun, I don't see why this wouldn't be just as great - they're just bigger
@@MajinBuusni right? It seems like they would be lovely if cooked well. Like abalone or octopus. I would absolutely cook and eat them on a regular basis. And it seems they would be more economically feasible - cheaper to raise and their reproductive abilities would allow much more offspring than most livestock.
THIS!!! Idk why it isnt more normalized in my country cos the only places u could eat snails here are at expensive french restaurants 🥲🥲🥲 i love snails but i cant afford to eat at such places every week
In ghana you will find a lot of people fry their meat till its dry, so fried meat paired with stews generally come off as too dry/tough to eat. the meats prepared in soups on the other hand are much tender.

As a survivalist, I've been warned specifically about eating snails. Apparently eating undercooked mollusc can give you in fact the actual worst parasites. But, these fine folks know what they are doing. I'll leave it to them.
Captive bred are not the same as wild caught. Much like rats and mice, pet rats and mice that are multi generation captive bred have nearly zero the diseases and parasites that wild rats or mice have, for comparison. When you farm the snails, you are in complete control of what they come into contact with, not so with wild snails. They pick up the diseases or parasites from the wild environment.
@rdizzy1 I bet there kept in a wild environment lol they live in the wild 😂 but don't bring that shut over here no bugs or slugs!!! Please someone help these people
@@chemicloud6443 No they aren't, they are kept in boxes and fed nutrient powder and leaves. They showed the snail eggs in the video, they harvest them and grow them in captivity. Everything from egg to adult snail is all in captivity, not in the wild.
In Ghana all meat is generally well cooked. We don't do raw or rare or medium rare. In fact a customer at a restaurant may return the dish if the meat isn't well cooked.
I've had African giant snails as pets, they are such gorgeous animals! A lot of people asked if you could eat them but until now I've never heard of people eating the large ones, I have tried the smaller ones tho ^^
yes each country have rules and laws but any countries in Africa and even Asia still have places where they will pretty much eat anything if you can cook it and hunt it so they will cook it from snails to deer anything they say you normally dont see sold in restaurants etc they will eat like skunks etc
Giant snail farms in Africa truly offer a new perspective on the future of food! Not only does it provide a rich source of protein, but it also contributes to solving environmental and food security issues.
It is the basic rule of fufu. Any attempt to chew is instant trauma that takes time to heal from. Now that I think of it, fufu is a glorified way to enjoy hot soup and meat while eating to your satisfaction (after eating either work or remain idle).
@BestEverFoodReviewShow Sonny I love your channel keep this up past year has been difficult for me however you brought me joy and something to look forward too just wanna say thank you I appreciate your work here
I'm not gonna lie. I am jealous of your food adventures all over the world. I mean, experiencing all kinds of sights, cultures and food? That's amazing. The fact that you get to do that for a living? You are the living embodiment of the saying "Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life".
Where i am from, we clean it thoroughly before any cooking. No slime is allowed. Salt, lemons, alun. As long as the slime is out because it tends to stay in and we don't like it slimy at all. Even for the fish that tend to be slimy, we do the same cleaning. We eat it like every other meat. And it is indeed a delicacy and it gets expensive day by day. It is delicious but cooking it is a whole process. Yellow fingers for days. But once you taste it, you forget the pain. 😄
There are soo many and huge large scale snail farms and grass cutter farms in Ghana, I guess your guide in Ghana did not have much information about these things. But good job
We thought mostly here in philippines not eaten that kind of snails but when i saw that i will try to cook that kind of snails in adobo with coconut milk
The look on her face made me think snail slime isn't something that they do normally. That look would have said ok folks that's a rap pack up the cameras😂
Definitely not something we do normally. Some like it, some don’t, some didn’t even know it was a thing. Me personally, as a Ghanaian who loves dried snails, I’d rather not.

Salt makes sense it even helps with removing mucus from decongestion

Your guests are all very smart ❤ every country you go ❤❤
There are soo many and huge large scale snail farms and grass cutter farms in Ghana, I guess your guide in Ghana did not have much information about these things. But good job
Thank you so much for projecting Ghana well
The snail stew with tomato looks delicious!
Amazing! Will be there next week!
Woah, Sunny, that is like bizarre foods channel, but it is everyday sustainability, like a land conch...
Love the Ghana videos! Please visit more of West Africa. Would love to see more.
They should make snail caviar. Someone in France is already making caviar from garden snails.
We thought mostly here in philippines not eaten that kind of snails but when i saw that i will try to cook that kind of snails in adobo with coconut milk
Escargots are raised in France too.
Thank you Sonny 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭
This man makes a lot of jokes 😂😂😂 “Slow-moving industry 😅
‘It’s a new experience’. He was very honest 😂
There are a lot of grasscutter farmers in Ghana
15:45..... Sonny pounding fufu.
Guy shouts in the background: Eiiii!!
😂😂😂😂😂
My people never disappoint 😂😂 🇬🇭
There are snail and grasscutter farms already in Ghana.
What is grass cutter?
I absolutly love snails in butter garlic sauce! This is considered a gastronomy meal in France!
The look on her face made me think snail slime isn't something that they do normally. That look would have said ok folks that's a rap pack up the cameras😂
Definitely not something we do normally. Some like it, some don’t, some didn’t even know it was a thing. Me personally, as a Ghanaian who loves dried snails, I’d rather not.
