Chatoyeh, u didnt tell them about Madowngo (spelling)......the sister to doughboy.....? Well I think that is an african word handed down......it is baked made from cassave, spices.....put in banana leaves in a flat pot to bake .....dont know why they call it that.....I guess it just looks MAD.....cause it is usually a big, ,toughish bake that could knock you down....but it is very filling ....A glass of lime juice in your blue plastic cup, or cup of local chocolate/cocoa tea...and I am not talking Hershey's....I mean made from scratch....no chemical added.....Pick the cocoa....dry it....grind it.....form a cocoa stick.....put to boil/steep in a pot of water with cinnamon leaf/tea bush.....Add milk......mmmm mmmm.

By the way....when last you had some BREADNUT.....me i did lastmonth.....man i still eat ORGANIC

I can taste the food just from your very descriptive vision, But do you think its this type of eating that causes excess overweight in our caribbean people? Dont mean to rain on your parade!!!!!!!!!!

Well chatoyeh2, if that's what you're having at your house in these hard guava times, then i want to come live at your house :D Today i had old fashion mint flavored suga water and 4 day old stale bread (the best time to eat bread mind you) and day before that before the condense milk run out, condense milk in the shop bread and some bush tea, the best in these low budget times.:P

Wait a minute- can't believe this. So many caribbean food and only 2 post on this? Then let me tell you about roast breadfruit and saltfish. Make sure the bread riping (ripening) before you roast it. And you want the hard saltish- with the one you have to soak overnight and boil 6-7 times. Stew the saltish down with some onions, tomatoes, etc in the lawd oil. If you ever eat that i know yo tasting it now in yo mind.

Dough Boy is similar to the trini coconut bake- except needed tighter and some nutmeg added to the ingredients. Now that i explain that tell me what you like What Next-

I am also unfamiliar with "dough boy" but I know tto well how a good cup of hot cocoa taste.. But I also love the taste of some good saltfish( oninons, peppers, black pepper) with some fried dumplin or a Trini bake. Thats a satisfying breakfast... you good for couple hours...yum yum!
