So Flower Child I saw 👀 the new Peppered Shrimp Jollof on the menu and, as Jollof enthusiast, I have some questions.

Who developed this recipe?
Were West African chefs, cooks, or culinary experts consulted?
Was the dish created with any understanding of the cultural history and significance of jollof?
And when a dish rooted in West African culture is adapted and commercialized by a large American restaurant chain, who gets to tell that story and who benefits from it?
We need answers……
