The controversial comedian Tiffany Haddish visited a supermarket in Zimbabwe and acted shocked at the store’s existence.
Haddish felt the need for an undisclosed reason to share her shock and provide proof with a walk around the store, showing that the country could have a store that sells a wide array of food on TikTok on Saturday. July 27.
“I’m out here in Zimbabwe, and looking at the grocery store!” The out of touch Haddish proclaimed. “They’ve got a grocery store! It’s beautiful. It’s humongous in Africa, baby… believe it!”
To dispel ‘misconceptions,’ Haddish praised the lack of an unpleasant aroma from the meat section.
“Americans need to stop disrespecting Africa, for real.” An X user commented.
“She’s dispelling some stereotypes parroted by Western media.” Another commenter supported Haddish. “Open your eyes and feel the love in her eyes and voice. Thanks, @TiffanyHaddish.”
When Haddish caught up with the polarizing reaction, she cleared the air in the messiest of ways.
“The media had me thinking all of your food is purchased at outdoor markets with goats and cows just hanging out, waiting to be slaughtered, with all kinds of smells and flies everywhere,” Haddish unfortunately said.
