Please, akara is not bean cake. Akara is akara. Regardless of the fact that Nigeria is an anglophone country, you don't need to translate the names of your local delicacies. It's like translating your Igbo/yoruba name. Let's stop this effort to completely wipe away our identity. Croissants retained its name even though it's eaten all over the world, shawarma is shawarma, etc. Why anglicize ours? When you go to a diverse city, people get intrigued/fascinated by the unusual names of the foods sold in the restaurants and they ask questions regarding the origin. I don't see how the name "bean cake" makes our dear akara more interesting.
Pistachio, Nachos etc are Mexican delicacies and still retain their real Mexican names anywhere in the world not "Englishsized". But we Africans would want to change everything, let them change "Jollof rice" nah?

Op.. Why call it beans cake and then using 'a.k.a' to call its original name; akara?

Pizza as popular as it is today is not an english name, it is an italian name and pizza originated from italy.. But you simply call it pizza!

also, the likes of shawarma as popular as it is today is not an english name, but you simply call it shawarma!

why then call our own 'akara' beans cake instead of akara?

some people will be calling garri cassava flour, calling moi moi beans cake.. A nigeria girl will be ashamed to say she ate eba, because they have not gotten a sexy name to it.. What is wrong with you, why spoil thing for us?

do you think calling it beans cake will make a white man to know what u ate, what is beans cake self?

mctheeew..
I love the fact we are becoming woke towards the positive things like this.

They eat akara in Brazil and Brazilian restaurants in other parts of the world serve it but you're right it should be a lot more popular. Akara is one of Nigeria's top 5 creations.
It's because we dont appreciate our own things. You can imagine a yoruba name like TEMITAYO been spelt as THEMMYTHAYOR. It is a complex problem. Must we onyinbonize everything?. When you hear some people's name you will need to google it before you can understand it. I am proudly yoruba.

. Brazilians calls it akaranjo , they named it akaranjo after our ancestors who first fried akara in Brazil and were ferried there during the slave trades .

Akaraje or Acaraje is what they call it. Popular street food in Brazil.

The person you quoted and insulted is way more intelligent that you can ever be...you are insulting someone you should be learning from. I don't know either of you but I have seen both of your contributions. Omo your stupidity is so amazing.
