Trini Treats While on our outing we stopped at a road-side stand to purchase locally made candies (many unusual preparations of local fruits). We also had a chance to try sugar apple fruit and chenets. When opened the sugar apples contained many large seeds coated in white pulp which one "sucked" off then spit out the seeds. We found the chenets to be very similar to litchi fruit. They have smooth green skin and a large seed surrounded by a thin covering of sweet, slightly acidic flesh. A locally prepared breakfast treat that we've enjoyed is "sahina" which is a ground channa and dasheen leaf fritter. It is served topped with "chutney" (curried chick peas) and pepper (hot sauce). We're surprised to note that the local pizza chains have a large bottle of "pepper" (hot sauce) on the counter. The locals pour a liberal layer on top of their pizza. Obviously an acquired taste. Fresh fruits available locally are mangos, avocado, banana, pineapple, melons, oranges, limes and paw paw (papaya). The fruits are a delicious treat and we are told so also is the monk fish that we found for sale at the market. Funny looking fellow, for sure.
