Probably a dirty word to most Americans. Wink

Instant coffee from Tanzania.

If it is anything like the coffee we used to get in Zimbabwe, with 30% REAL coffee, we have managed to reverse engineer it, and here is the recipe:

30% Nescaffe Classic coffee powder
20% burnt, green, mopane bark
20% red mopane leaves - the ones that crackles as you walk on them, and the elephant hear your foot steps a mile away!
15% old bull elephant dung, very dry.
15% ground, roasted dung beetles.

We did a double blind test, and no one was able to tell the difference!

A dash of chicory also adds flavor.
and the water needs to be hot enough to kill potential parasitic infestations.

Saeed,

I've tasted that green dynamite you left at Pierre's camp, and you'll excuse me for saying so, but you can't have ANY taste buds left! rotflmo

Which ingredient turns it hard as concrete as soon as you leave it in the cupboard for a week? Should come standard with hammer and chisel. I like the taste anyway, at least as I remember it.

That happens when some of the indicated ingredients are not enough, and more dung beetles are added.

Very unethical business practice that is!

I am also impressed with the stylish black and yellow can. Violates every marketing tenet known to man. In Zanzibar it seems to be Africafe or nothing.

I dont need any of that (potion coffee) that Saeed has invented to get myself above the clouds, all I need to to do is listen to ONE Sound bite of Walter's escapades and that gives me a free and Natural HIGH.

Cheers, Peter

How can any of you stand to drink that stuff? According to their website, it'll make you go blind! bewildered

I don't recall anything that I drank in Africa that I missed once I got home. coffee I do remember a particular South African wine that I liked called Nyala, but the part I liked best was the picture of the nyala on the label. Smiler

By golly I thought that Kilimanjaro beer was really good and I liked Africafe. However, I didn't use the same recipe that Saeed used or maybe my eyesight could have been affected!! Dr.C

Talking about drinks and or foods tried or consumed by foreigners visiting Africa ...

I bet ALL those visiting Africa tried and JUST LOVED our spread called MARMITE or as some commonly from overseas call Axle Grease (-:

Well I love it, so do Aussies (although they swear they dont and prefer Vegemite, but its same stuff IMO - here come the flames!) however most Canadians I know wretch at the thought...always makes me laugh! I always offer it to them when possible to see the reaction!

I think I am one of few that have acquired a taste for the stuff. I often have marmite on buttered toast -- plain for breakfast or with cheddar cheese and tomatoes for lunch. Smiler thumb

I tried Vegemite a few years ago (was working with an Aussie engineer)...but was still in the "acquisition" of taste phase....didn't like it much at the time....maybe it was just too thickly spread for me. I can't say it was the same as Marmite, but its definitely similar.

Cheers,
Canuck

ps: I am not big on instant coffee, but it works in a pinch, and I quite enjoyed it in Africa. I haven't tried them head to head, but I preferred Ricoffy in RSA to Africafe in TZ.

I have looked for Ricoffy and Rusks here in Canada, but haven't tracked any down yet.

Some ex-RSA'ers that live here have a Boerswors and Droerswors business....I am a regular. That stuff is AWESOME. I often recreate RSA bush-lunches when I am hunting here at home.

Cheers,
Canuck

I do not find the internet address, but when I leaved Windhoek on July I bought some coffee like the Boere Kickstart and other type. However the Boere Kickstart was the best.

But it was cofee in powder, not instant
