Renee has had an interesting trip and she's just getting started...
"I'd like to make a reservation. "
" Where would you like to go? "
Take me to Myrtle Beach, then from there fly out of Raleigh to DC and then to Belgium and then to Ghana! Coming back is something else...
What's in Ghana you might ask.
Well, Renee is in business school and is going to help with a commercial project. It seems there is a tree there that is a super food. More vitamin C than Oranges, more flavor than bacon, more fiber than prunes...
If you hang around junkscience.com a bit you become a bit leery about superfoods, but hey it might be true. Can't condemn this until you give it a chance.
I would be nice if it were true. The locals have a crop that will bring in funds and is worth what they will charge.
I'm sorry that I can't tell you which tree it is. But it might be the Karite tree, which produces Shea Butter. Wiki doesn't not mention the dietary gold mine, so it might be something else...
In any case, it's an experience and a lot of plane travel and maybe some college credit, a line on the old resume! What's not to like?
So, good luck, take pictures and I'm glad it's not I on that plane.
