Ackee and salt fish number two
So amid all this campaign activity, I came across an article in National Geographic which rated Jamaica's national dish, ackee and salt fish, as No. 2 in a list of the top 10 national dishes from around the world.
This may seem like a matter of little consequence to the average person, but I was really thrilled to see another positive story about our country in the international media, since we are so often pilloried and beaten down by others. I was a little indifferent to the fact that hamburger was rated number one, nonetheless, I felt good that there is strong acceptability of our culinary delights by others outside Jamaica.
