    That fire side looks a little bit modern. There are much more antique fooh difay to roast breadfruit.

    Can we create a scrapbook with all of these tremendous looking foods? The traditions of our grandparents and parents is passing us by. Is there something that can be done in order to preserve such heritage? Just a thought. We have to save our culture. Thanks DNO and the participants of this very entertaining and inspiring “back to our culture’ interlude. Avocado anyone?

      You’ve been away too long. “Gwempain” is breadnut. This is breadfruit! “Yampeh.”

      yah, you have definitely been away too long. Zayid and cask rum are two completely different things. Ask anybody that drinks it and they’ll tell u the difference. I think zayid is stll somewhat illegal in Dominica where as cask rum is not.
