Mind you, the Spanish were the first ones to import or traffic Africans to Jamaica. The British then continued the practice after taking over the island. The Africans brought over by the Spanish were the Maroons who fought the British, entered into a treaty after they won their autonomy, settling into the hinterlands with their own leadership.
good comment. to add, sugarcane was also brought by the Spaniards. Brits just essentially ramped up plantations, slavery, and influenced the creation of beef patties
Hi! Yasmin, liked your educational & presentation of Carribean cuisines/dishes, there! Its was very delightful, you spoke very authoritive on the subject and pleasent Love Ya! Big-Up!!!!
The Spanish introduced Slavery in the new world and also Jamaica. The first Maroons escaped from the Spanish not the English. The English come just expanded on the North Atlantic Slave Trade
The black people created the ackee/salt fish and callaloo style of cooking ! I notice you talk about every thing other ethic group have done but you don’t mention anything about Africa food that to this day is still a staple in Africa ! I NOTICE YOU LEFT AFRICAN FOOD OUT THAT MEAN YOU DON’T REALLY KNOW THE HISTORY OF THE CARIBBEAN YOU ARE JUST ASSUMING
The Isabella and her possee came 1494 and then the 🇬🇧came 1665,for food before we were given scrap by the backra master as Africans before the slavery we had our fine food of Africa.😊thanks for the commentary sis👍🔊🇯🇲🇬🇧
👎🏿 you not correct you mention every ethnic group and their food contribution except AFRICA THERE ARE THINGS TO THIS DAY THAT STILL EATEN IN JAMAICA THAT CAME FROM AFRICA AND STILL APART OF THE AFRICAN STAPLE TO THIS DAY IN AFRICA !
The Spanish started slavery in Jamaica. Ask the Maroons, who were the descendants of the slaves brought by Spain. All the islands did not do jerk chicken. Jerking is a uniquely Jamaican method of seasoning and preparing food. Jamaican jerk has spread throughout the Caribbean, just as our patties. We also have our own roti, if your not familiar with it, there are videos on youtube showing you how to prepare it.
our food is more african than anything else. rice is not native to europe and our rice and peas is literally ghanaian waakye. our dumpling is nigerian puff puff, etc. the fish dish is made congolese style and dukunu in jamaica is the same in ghana. Its sad always trying to liken us to europeans when we are african and speaks to how much colonialism we have to unpack
Rice n Peas is NOT waakyee you're delusional. Coconut, scallion, thyme, scotch bonnet pepper all grow in Ghana yet Ghanaians couldn't think of mixing those ingredients together first? Waakyee is brown leaves with baking soda and salt. That's nothing on like Rice n Peas. Fry dumpin is not puff puff or bofolf. Fry dumpin is not sweet or a desert the other two are. Escovitch fish is not from Africa as well that was introduced by the Spanish. After 400+ years we are NOT African anymore. We are Caribbean and all Caribbean people are mixed with something which is why we look so different from Africans.
You are talking rubbish you don’t know your history well and also you are advertising at the side of you the products not black businesses so go and find black business companies to advertise the products you are talking about
This is excellent. I will be sharing this with my daughter to educate! Bless you and keep up the good work sis x

@@slimthickaz. also have you heard of the beckford plantation owners ruclips.net/video/injqATWMRkM/видео.html
This is not accurate those foods came from mainly africa and rice and peas is not new to Africans, Ackee is African and many of it is all African
Ackee's African yet none of you eat it? Lies😂
Rice isn't from Africa it's from Asia. There's tons of rice and beans dishes yet you wanna claim ours lol, stop
Who is she?
Very informative 😊
How was it informative when she left out African food that are still eaten through out the island and still is a staple in Africa !
Arawak Indians are from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 . They are the Puerto Ricans 🇵🇷 today.
Arawaks were in all the greater Antillean countries
No Spaniards are Spanish. Arawak Indians is tribe of Indians came from the America's
Go back and restore the history about Jamaica a lot of stuff you say is wrong
A lot of Indian influence to..
I did not know any of this, they a teeny tiny bit about slaves and sugar Cain then that's it!
