This is another one. Just like the other one. :-) Earlier today, I was in Osu on Oxford Street after running a number of errands. I had some time to burn and my phone was off. So I decided to go to the Oxford Street mall. I'd never entered it before. When I got to the Shoprite, I had an idea. I'm going to check for as many times that are made in Ghana and sold here. Revelations. Read the following tweets capturing the some of the edible things :-)
