we brought food from India and Africa to the Caribbean

we also brought Coconut tree, mango and Breadfruit !  Wink

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  Wink

#15
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.

I said boil and fry provision and included breadfruit from Africa.

I could have easily said metemgee BUT Mapoui dont know about that  Wink

Where Lima beans come from

Peru ?  Tongue

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
