Remember the children's story about the old lady who lived in a shoe, she had so many kids she didn't know what to do?  There's a place where she likely spent eternity in that shoe.  Tradition has it, coffins are built to reflect the interest of the deceased in this country.  Pitmasters in BBQ grills. Fisherman in boats.  Businessmen in briefcases.  Custom coffins for all occasions.  Well... maybe that's overkill.  Let's find out together as we explore the African nation of Ghana.  #dyingtoeat #die #coffin #ghana #british #england #unitedstates #africa #slave #food #recipe #guyscooktoo #scottparish #redstew
