Well, seaweed is a kind of weed, so it grows everywhere. You should be able to get seaweed in South Africa somewhere. As for seaweed dishes, if you like salad, you can make seaweed salad. That's an easy one, and if you like seafood, you can put (boiled or steamed) fish and other seafood as well. You can make it seafood salad. Soup is also easy to make.

It's definetly far cheaper, and you can be as creative as you want, when adding on ingredients.
