I rate de Villiers up there among the greatest of all time batsman certainly in the top 10 he will be missed from South Africa cricket.

Reckon the Carribbean has the superior cuisine too, what with all the Indian influence. What does South Africa have outside of braai?

Very much so... had a big impact in a number of the matches against India and Aus in recent series and help win both. Cant ask for more from a senior player. I just hope he plays for the Titans and passes his knowledge on to the youngsters..

Brown vinegar kills the bugs and adds just a hint of caramel.

Salt preserves and assists to dry it and adds taste to the meat.

Coriander adds the flavour that the salt lacks.

Chilli gives it the bite.

I may not be South African, but I know my (and have frequently made) my Biltong.

Food of the gods.

My knowledge of South African food is that it consists of a gigantic dead animal thrown on a barbecue.

Whereever there is a major culutral exchange, the food normally improves. Your USA south is full of Carribean (with Indian and moreso African), Mexican, and USA (Euro with strong German roots) foods meeting.

I do believe the USA has some of the best food in the world, but if lacks a truly authentic 'USA-ian' cuisine outside of, arguably, Southern cuisine.

South Africa is basically game meat over a fire. Pretty good but also limited

North Eastern (NY etc) has a strong Jewish influence to the cuisine. And you're right, different ingredient availability and culture clashes has shaped USA to rather different in its cuisine pending the region.
