think you mean plantain? same family as bananas but kinda like calling a domestic housecat a tiger. some salient differences. in terms of use actually has more in common with how peeps cook with potato in NA/Europe

never met a local here or in JA who couldn't swim. it's like, an essential life skill. just locals tend to congregate in
local beach areas, away from the tourist track where possible. can't imagine why when y'all are so delightful
tons of Barbadian peeps down here as well. def defer to your expertise in this regard though
assuming your anecdotal story shared with such infinite respect for the woman is correct, would look at that like white NA parents who tell their kids that a mythical elf will leave them coal in their stockings at xmas if they don't behave.
carry on...
