My wife describes Reggae and Dancehall which he popular of in Jamaican culture music as “the love blues”.

One of Jamaican food main dish is the ackee. A small number of islands grow the fruit ackee as an ornamental tree or for decoration, but only Jamaica looks at it as a tree that bears edible fruit and even use it apart of there national dish which include salt fish. Now that’s how it became Jamaican food main dish. Let me give you a little description about Jamaican food main dish. The ackee fruit has a bright red outer shell. When the fruit is ripe, it bursts open and reveals three large black seeds and bright yellow flesh which is the inner part. The flesh of the ackee is popular as a breakfast food and also dinner throughout
Jamaica in its entirety and the flesh part is the part that is cooked which in turn is eaten with salt fish, you get it, Jamaican food main dish, ok lets go on. Let’s get a little scientific now about Jamaican food main dish, ackee of course. Ackee’s scientific name, blighia sapida, comes from Captain Bligh, who introduced the plant to Jamaica from native West Africa back then in the slave trade period. Ackee is poisonous if eaten before it is fully mature and because of its toxicity, it is subject to import restrictions and may be hard to obtain in some countries. Never open an ackee shell; it will open itself when it ceases to be deadly and ready for maturity. I hope you enjoy your ackee when you have a chance to eat it and it can be cooked and varied combinations. Do dine the Jamaican food main dish.
