Did you hear about this local black-owned food business? It’s news to me. What ethnicity are they, Yoruba, Ethiopian, maybe Kongo? Oh, they’re African-American. I’m not too familiar with their cuisine specialties outside of the surprising amount of things they can do with a chicken. African-American and black African diets are quite different. One is much more centered on commercial, supermarket diets than the other. I am not too sure how much of food-related culture has been passed on from Western Africa to their descendants in the Americas, but the in the US in particular, it seems negligible. Even in the Caribbean and the Americas, they seem to have their own local cuisines, partially influenced by European colonial traditions.
