Abstract in English A people’s relation to food represents something deep about their relation to the environment in which they live and are a part. Food culture is a social event ensemble in interspecies relations. This is evident in this Annang aphorism ‘ Ádé agwo áköd inuen áköd ’, that is, ‘humans and nonhumans are interconnected in the food web’. This chapter aims to investigate how food can be related to African environmental values. This will involve a critical analysis of selected African Indigenous proverbs on food and the environment to unravel how they can shape food practices together with their ethical implications. The use of aphorisms for this study is crucial because proverbs are embedded with African philosophical worldviews especially the traditional epistemology. With food ethics in Western and African moral contexts rooted in human concerns, there is the need for food ethics that appeal to the non-anthropocentric proverbs embedded in African environmental ethics. I show the kind of food ethics African environmental values support including how it can transform food ethics from its current anthropocentric posture to non-anthropocentrism. The chapter draws from literature on African environmental ethics and cultural studies.
