custom at meal time
Q: Is there special custom at meal time that the jamaicans do?
A: We eat rice and peas and chicken for sunday dinner, some people drink soups for Saturday dinner, Everyone drink hot tea in the morning, mainly herb as a part of breakfast.
At meal time, some people pray over the food, others don't, some families eat together at the table, some don't. But for the most part, everyone eat and enjoy the traditional food...which is mostly rice, rice, chicken, fish, dumplings, and home grown ground food products.
