Saltfish is a national dish in Jamaica usually made with Ackee and Fried or Boil Dumplings. Banana Fritters another dish form Jamaica which is made for various accusations. The reason I chose the dish or meal I chose for my project is something that I grew up with because my dad is fan Immigrant from Jamaica, and so this is something that I grew to love because I never really had the chance to visit or see the place my dad grew up, so it kind of one of many connections to my cultural background/lineage. As time goes on I realize the significance of the dish and how big of an impact is has my life because whenever I'm asked about where i'm from I notice my taste has been greatly influenced by the culture of Jamaican Food because what I expect from a dish is not how good it is as I eat I think about the impression of that  persons culture had on the dish.
