South Africa Is Divided As TikTokker's Irish Girlfriend Rates Our Beloved Mzansi Cuisine

• An Irish woman kicked off a nationwide debate after rating South Africa's most-loved snacks
• TikTokker @brisanchtow posted a video of her foreign girlfriend taste-testing popular Mzansi foods, and not everyone agrees with her opinion
• The platform was left divided as some people agreed with the women's thoughts while others fought for their favourite foods

Mzansi kos is loved for its diversity, but can it pass the taste test of an Irish girlfriend? This answer sparked some debate on social media, as a woman's Irish partner rated South Africa's most iconic snacks.

From Nik Naks and Flings to Fizzers, South Africans don't play when it comes to our chow. So you can only imagine the stir user @brisanchtow's girlfriend caused when she didn't give Mzansi's childhood favourites the ratings people thought they deserved.

TikTokker's girlfriend's ratings of SA snacks have people protesting

Some called for justice over the TikTok video as the women's ratings were not what they expected. With a visibly turned face, she shook her head at the classic chip brand Flings and gave a sad rating of 6/10. Green Fizzers got an even more depressing rating, scoring only 3/10.

However, it was not all doom and gloom for the nation's fan favourites. The woman was awestruck by Mrs Balls Chutney, a staple in every South African home. She also fell in love with the country's best corn chip Nik Naks, rating them a 10/10.

For all her ratings, take a look at the video here:

"Justice for Flings."

@I_sell_Accessories agreed with some of her ratings:

"Rating Nik Naks anything less that 10 should be a crime."

@anushcadaniels felt some snacks were missing:

"Where is the Billtong?"

"No fizzers are a 10."

Venda woman's grasshopper recipe goes TikTok viral, Mzansi divided over South African delicacy

This is not the first time the internet has been divided over food. Briefly News showed how one TikTokker cooked grasshoppers.

People were fascinated by the delicacy. However, some reacted in pure shock over the unfamiliar cuisine.

With a rainbow nation of people, we won't always agree on which food we love the most. We can agree that South African food will always taste like home.
