It is very easy to overlook STEEM when considering life-changing opportunities for billions of people worldwide due to its slim popularity and worth as compared to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the other large and famous cryptos. However, STEEM is surprisingly turning lives around in the Ghanaian communities since its adoption in 2016. The various STEEM platforms (STEEMit, Dtube, Steepshot, Busy, etc) have provided priceless means for the general populace to create and spread ideas through article writing, video creating, memes posting, uploading of pictures, and among others while being compensated for their effort.
Food is generally very affordable in most parts of Ghana most especially the Ashanti, Eastern, and Central region.

Undoubtedly, foreign foods are expensive as compared to the local ones. However, a large proportion of the residents in Ghana consume the locally prepared dishes. Good foods' spots in Ghana are spread by word of mouth and supported by the evidence of huge queues in front of such eating place- Ghana is still regarded as a developing country so digital reviews for eating place only exist for few restaurants nationwide. The average Ghanaian can comfortably thrive on GHS14, thus $3 (equivalent to 1 STEEM) a day for food the exchange rate was based on the market price as at 20th May,2018 --thus if the individual chooses to consume the affordable, bountiful, healthy, and tasty local dishes.
A local dish such as WAAKYE (the food above) would cost about GHS4 to have eggs, salad, the actual rice with stew, and a meat. So imagine buying such a nutritious and tasty food filled with proteins, vitamins, carbohydrates, fats and oil, and other essential elements required for the growth and development of the human body for just 0.29 STEEM. Amazing right?
The above food is called FUFU with "LIGHT SOUP". The fufu component comprises grinded mixture of cassava and plantain. The above food with the meats would cost around 0.38 STEEM. It is a healthy source of carbohydrate, vitamins, proteins, fats and oil, as well as the other essential nutrients.
Lots of delicious locally prepared meals can be bought with just 1STEEM. So if you thought a STEEM wasn't worth anything, Think again!!!. Again, imagine the number of people STEEM can change their lives should STEEM be brought to their doorsteps in a country where the struggle for two decent meals a day exists. I'm still hopeful that and
's #farms and the #steemchurch program would feed the world.
