England, United Kingdom (06 March 2026) – Joseph Dweba knows rugby is more than just a game; it’s also about sharing a bit of home. The South African recently introduced his Exeter Chiefs teammate, Lewis Pearson, to a delicious taste of South Africa, taking him on a snack journey he won’t soon forget.

Next up were Ghost Pops, a popular South African snack. Lewis tried them and said they reminded him of what the British snack called Wotsits.
The exchange wasn’t rushed. Each bite came with a story, a tip, and a shared laugh. A great moment of bonding, bridging cultures one tasty snack at a time.
Whether it was the comforting dunk of a rusk or the crunch of a Ghost Pop, Joseph made sure Lewis got a genuine taste of South Africa.
