As the season of good cheer gets closer, everyone has a list of items they need to purchase just in time for the big Christmas holiday and YEN has found five of them:

1. Chicken. No Ghanaian household is without chicken at Christmas. Whether it’s already dressed or purchased alive to be dressed on the actual day, there is always a special Christmas chicken meal in a Ghanaian home.

3. Rice. For some reason, rice during Christmas always tastes best, and as such the festive season is filled with lots of rice purchases in every market.

4. Cassava and plantain. Because you can’t celebrate Christmas in Ghana and not have Fufu. Whether on Christmas day or on boxing day, families gather to enjoy the popular local dish with their favorite soup.
