we brought food from India and Africa to the Caribbean
we also brought Coconut tree, mango and Breadfruit !
Of course we modified the Ingredients a bit !
Notice ha had no African provision :
I man would be looking for Cassava, Yam and Breadfruit in Jamaica !!!
[/quote] Captain Bligh brought breadfruit from Tahiti . Did you not see ' Mutiny on the bounty? "

Breadfruit is a staple food, sought after for its cheap cost and it being a source of
high energy. In fact, breadfruit was first brought to the Caribbean and the Americas
by Captain William Bligh in the late 18th century as a cheap high energy
food source to feed and energize slaves in the new world..

I knew that BUT wanted to emphasise your point !
you made it sound like fiction via a movie
Re: Indian Eating OXTAIL! Really..with red bean and rice - Kwami - 08-11-2016
but you stated that it came from India and by the way Mutiny on the Bounty wasn't fictional although the [portrayal of Captain Bligh as a Tyrant was indeed fictional.

Where Lima beans come from
Peru ?
Despite the origin of the name, when referring to the bean, the word "lima"
is generally pronounced differently than the Peru capital.
The term "butter bean" is widely used for a large, flat and yellow/white variety
of lima bean
