Re: Sweet! Jamaican fruits...

I remember when I was a girl and visited my uncle in St. Mary. There was a grove of guavas right in front of his property across di road; stretching waaay off into the distance.. We used to wander and just pick the guavas off the trees and eat them right there. Sometimes after we bit into them we see worms nestled among the pink fleshy parts. We just threw them away and picked annedda wan.

As for jackfruits, I am of the belief that St. Mary has the most jackfruit trees. Bwouy oh boy, I remember the huge ones that grew on my uncles property as well, along with ackees. Mi neva like jackfruit seeds; why eat that when mi cyaan eat di real ting? [img]/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: Sweet! Jamaican fruits...

So true, di luxury of just being able to discard as you go along can never be recaptured. By lunch time we were so full I now wonder where we had place to pack anything on top of that. Bwouy a tell yuh, you who were born in the country surely had it good when it came onnn to di nyammings. When I see the flux that the US government allows through the ports and the prices for them, makes me memba dese good ole days...aaahh sah!!
