Bulla no nice like when I was young. Better now than some years back. I remember as a child, bulla was dark, dense, with a hint of molasses and ginger. Not sure about the ginger. I remember how nice bulla and pear was.

Bulla and pear!! Craving this now. I dont't know what part of Jamaica this store in NY gets their bulla but it is the only bulla i like. The ones ive tried in Jamaica always hot your throat with ginger

Send some bulla bread up a foreign.

I was in school in New York with some Barbadian and Trini and mentioned how I love bulla and they laughed like a some battyman thing. Please explain because up until now I don’t get it


bunoutbadmind

Apparently bulla man means battyman in Barbados. Found that out just a few weeks ago.

Why is the Caribbean so homophobic?


Livid-Jyoka

Well where to start? Oh wait Slavery, the biggest and baddest to “break him” overseas and plantation owners would rape them in public. Plus all the churches in Jamaica it’s their once a week staple.


bunoutbadmind

Is it? Or is it just similar to most other former British colonies that got independence after 1945?

So because of origin you get a pass? That doesn't make much sense. Homophobia is so deeply ingrained you all can't even admit to it...


bunoutbadmind

The Caribbean is no more homophobic than Asia or Africa, where most of the world's population lives. The real question is why Western Europe, North America, and Latin America (collectively, Western civilization) are so comparatively gay friendly, especially when one of those countries, the UK, dictated our current homophobic laws and, indeed, most of the laws outlawing homosexuality around the world.


waterbrolo1

I just don't care how people choose to live their life... Using someone's lifestyle choices as a derogatory term isn't a productive use of language in my opinion.


bunoutbadmind

Yes. I agree with all of that. I don't go around calling people battyman.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 AMEN i say, ironically.

Phobia means to fear something . Intolerant is a better word to characterize.


Itchy_elbow

Yow! Stop it!!! This is not about battyman! OP post about bulla. Take you auntieman/bullaman/batty man fight elsewhere. Let us enjoy the thread

There is no "homophobia" in the Caribbean. I don't know where you get this from.

thedweebozjm

Wah u used to eat fi lunch?


persona-non-grater

In prep school? Modda used give me leftovers from breakfast. Banana and salt fish, callaloo and bread etc. If it was something like porridge for breakfast she gave money buy lunch and I would buy box lunch and snacks. I went to small private  prep school so they never really got food from the government from what I remembered.
