Jamaica’s 5 Best Street Foods

COCOBREAD In our book, there are very few things that can improve the taste of a Jamaican patty. But one of them is coco bread. Snackers with a hearty appetite use it to make a sort of patty sandwich (like the Tastee version, shown here) with the patty as the filling and this sourdough-like pocket (also known as “folding bread”) as the bread surrounding it. The liberal coating of butter between the two halves of cocobread ups the flavor (and the fat count) of this high-calorie snack, but if you’re even considering a patty-and-cocobread lunch (sold at any patty shop or vendor), clearly calories aren’t a concern.
