Chief Executive Officer of Fiona Foods, Ms. Fiona Koranteng, has disclosed that growing up, she admired sexy dancers (strippers) to the extent it became her dream job.<\/p>\n
The popular Ghanaian chef said at that time, her direction wasn\u2019t carved towards the food business or any other \u2018respectable job\u2019, as many would perceive.<\/p>\n
In an interview with TV3\u2019s Cookie Tabila, Fiona recalled discussing her plans to become a stripper with her parents and the interesting reactions she got from them.<\/p>\n
This was after she was asked if food was her ultimate dream job since childhood.<\/p>\n
Cookie: \u201cWhile you were growing up, I am sure you were often asked what you would want to be. At that time, I\u2019m sure most people said they wanted to be doctors, teachers and so on. When you were asked, did you say food?\u201d<\/p>\n
Fiona responded, \u201cI wanted to be a stripper, I wanted to be Cardi B. I don\u2019t know, I just thought it was fascinating. I wanted to be a stripper, dancing on the pole and so on. I actually told my dad and he said I was a fool and that wasn\u2019t going to happen. They didn\u2019t call it stripper then. They were called sexy dancers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Asked where she drew such inspiration from, Ms. Koranteng recalled, \u201cThere was a stripper in Vienna City, Circle. There was a lady there at that time that was so beautiful. She was everything! I wanted to be her.\u201d<\/p>\n
She said her parents\u2019 disapproval and several other factors later quenched her zeal. \u201cMy parents thought I was going mad. At some point, they will bath me with prayers. So, I knew that wasn\u2019t going to happen so I had to cook,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
