Inflation is rising. Grocery prices are out of control. Eggs cost $9. Milk feels like a luxury. America is shocked. Africa is confused. In this episode of Africa Already Knows, Ted Makambo breaks down why rising food prices feel like a crisis in the West — but like a familiar reminder across Africa.

This isn’t about mocking pain. It’s about understanding systems, survival, and why Africans were never surprised by instability.

Africa already knew. The world is just catching up.
