As you travel around East Africa you will see countless Africans selling food
along the roadsides, in the markets, or through bus and train windows. They sell
fruit, boiled eggs grilled maize, boiled maize, yogurt, milk, soda pop, fried
dough balls, samosas, yellow buns, and real seasonal delicacies like roasted
mice and termites. The following are a few East African snack foods you can try.
"Beef Jerky" is more common in South Africa but still a part of the East African
diet. It is generally made from beef, but other game is used when available. Cut
strips of meat following the grain of muscle. Make strips 2 inches wide and 1
inch thick. Best made during cool dry weather if possible. Submerse sliced meat
in marinade and leave overnight.

Hang the strips of meat in a cool, dry, well ventilated place until dry or use a
non-heating food dehydrator.
