Y'all like breadfruit, my grandma's brother sends us some every so often.

you vincy of course over breadfruit

i only like it roast, i try to stay away starchy hi carb foods such green bananas, yams, yuka, breadfruit, etc that's the only aspect of Caribbean food i don't like

There's a spot in Little Haiti that sells all those juices and sell delicious patties. It's on 54th st NE 2 Ave


Just ask around if you get lost.


That place

those are the best kinda carbs to eat tho. better than the sugary processed stuff most carbs here in the states come packaged as. not all carbs are bad carbs.

not saying they're bad it's just that i think they're used too much plus for me alot of them especially yams and green banana seems pretty bland. i prefer more greens (beans, ocra, cabbage, coliflower, etc)

i won't say their used too much...that's been our staple diet for centuries and the fact that our diet is low in fats and high in fish oils combats the high starch aspects.
i can see how maybe eating our starches plus americanized food could lead to some problems. i've honestly never seen many "obese" jamiacans that eat prrimarily yard food. supposedly they're all over New York...but the ones in my fam tend to be on the skinny to healthy side.

it's sooooo good!!! it's hard as hell to find it here in houston. my fam always smuggles some back when they go there for me. and to think if falls off the tree and just rots on the ground there and we're taking covert methods just tryna get a taste here

that's one of the reasons i can't fukk with the south, except florida. i got to have these things in my life. although they're not always the freshest but atleast here in nyc i could walk out my house and down the block and buy two guinep or a soursop.
